Day 3 Christmas and Holiday Cookies-Neiman Marcus Cookies

Every year a friend of mine has a Cookie Party.  This is not a cookie exchange,but a party where 12 women get together and make cookie kits to take home and bake with their kids. We each have stations to measure and bag ingredients.  After all the flour, sugars, nuts,and candy have been measured, chopped and bagged, we have a brunch.  This is such a nice get together and I thoroughly enjoy it every year. This recipe makes a lot of cookies.  Grab some friends and have your own cookie party.  Have a great day and Happy Cooking!
