Subtle Spice No Chill Shot Glass Sugar Cookies

Submitted by Chef #810151

"This makes a holiday supply. Easily halved. This cookie has a powdery, subtle sweet taste with just a hint of spices. Great iced or topped with sweets! I love the small size, which cuts the calories....if you only have a few! Previously I have added a couples shots from my black pepper grinder and some all spice, which surprisingly turns out awesome, really! Butter is easily substituted."

Going through my recipe printouts had me note I missed reviewing these little gems! A review for a recipe that has been added to my Holiday Baking Cookbook is long overdue! Halved the recipe and made as posted and agree a subtle sweet tasting cookie with just a hint of spices - great tasting sugar cookies. Only change I will make come holiday baking time is no halving next time around. Thank you for sharing.
