Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
There seem to be an endless variety of cookies that people trot out for the holidays. I know that I like to have a lot of variety when I'm just offering cookies (and perhaps hot chocolate) for dessert. Lex Culinaria has gone one better and made a batch o sweet and savory Cheddar and Cranberry Cookies. The cookies are very similar to shortbread, but with the salty tang of aged cheddar that makes them extremely snackable, much like a good cracker. The cookies are of the slice-and-bake variety, so the dough is rolled into logs and stored in the freezer. LC makes a very good point about how convenient it is to be able to just slice off a few rounds for baking when you want some, so you'll always have fresh snacks for entertaining and won't be overly tempted by having a huge batch sitting around.

each other out. Sounds interesting . . .

Or the fact that I don't have a mixer might have to do with it. The dough doesn't want to stick together at all prior to chilling; it's very crumby. I suppose we shall see, but does anyone have any suggestions?
