Penny Richards' photos with the keyword: cookies

These were based on a recipe for molasses-ginger cookies--but I didn't have enough molasses or ground ginger. So honey instead of molasses, cardamom and nutmeg instead of ginger. Tasted great, with a wonderful texture.

Cases in my living room, an hour ago (most are now gone with the girls who will deliver them).

My first attempt--and a surprising success.

Batch of Welsh cookies, ready to transport to family feast tomorrow. It's wrapped to stay fresh, but it's also wrapped to keep us from eating it beforehand.
