It's cookie time!!! There is just something truly magical about the holidays and cookies. I really can't explain it. The lights are hung, the tree is decorated, the presents are wrapped, (well, getting there), the house looks beautiful... but it's not the holidays until there are cookies!! Recipe courtesy of Good Housekeeping, 1967. Pictures are my own.

Remove mixer. -Stir in your snipped cherries and chopped walnuts. -Preheat oven to 350F. -Using a small cookie scoop or by heaping teaspoonfuls, drop your cookies onto a parchment lined cookie sheet. -Bake for 13-15 minutes. -As soon as the cookies come out of the oven, immediately place a marshmallow halve on top of the warm cookie and press down just a little to ensure it sticks. Continue baking and topping the rest of the cookies. -Using your microwave in 20 second increments (or can use a double boiler), melt your chocolate chips with your shortening . -Drizzle chocolate over marshmallows and cookies.
