my mom changed hers a bit - she would roll the dough into logs, and then cut about 3/8 inch slices to bake until light golden brown. then she rolled them in the powdered xugar.

minimized the doughy, underbaked centers that would happen with the bslls.

Mom handed out baggies to each of us at Christmas.

mine are called: Nieman Marcus cookies and are only made at Christmas.

Back story: one Saturday,...Christmas was to be on Wednesday that year,

so basically four days before Christmas, my 3 dd-mouslings and I made
our traditional Christmas cut out cookies and iced them and ate some.
Later that night, middle dd and i ended up on the couch and love seat
propped up, as we were both running to the bathroomS, thank goodness
for 2.
It took a few years for both of us to want spaghetti or sugar cookies.
Our neighbors dd had the flu and didn't know it and had come down
to our house.
Her mom gave me her recipe for Nieman Marcus cookies, (that has it's
own story or maybe it's a "tale"), but the cookies are awesome and
I feel like royalty every time I eat them...but not after spaghetti!

For everyday, it would be chocolate chip or peanut butter. For holidays, it's cut-out sugar cookies.

thanks for the recipe for the Neiman Marcus cookies., I might need to try that one.
I've heard from previous years that they are very good and prize winning.
