@@jackien.456 yeah, that would great! I always love an old school recipe. I'm an elementary school cafeteria chef and we make some good newer things, but some of the absolute best recipes are from those elderly church ladies and ones that are passed down through the generations.
My momma is 93 and still bakes these sand tarts every year! She add pecans, cinnamon and a touch of nutmeg. She got the recipe in 1956 when she got married! My favorite cookie!
I like these vlogs because they are just like hanging out with you and your friends in your kitchen. Your recorded shows are always fun but I really like these vlogs a lot. Thanks for doing them, I was raised in Oregon but all my family was from Georgia, Arkansas, Tennessee and Texas and you remind me so much of them all, its like going back to childhood.
This is my all time favorite cookie. I first tried them and got her recipe from a girl in my 9th grade Home Economics class holiday cookie share. She called them Mexican Wedding Cookies, I later learned them as Sand Tarts. Addictive! My mother was an at home professional baker, Christmas was a production. Mother had a cookie gun that had different shapes like christmas trees, reindeer, etc. A lot of different cakes. Divinity.
Good morning, everyone! My mother would make almost this same recipe but with ground nuts added into the dough. Whatever kind she happened to have on hand. Could have been pecans, walnuts or almonds. She would roll them in the powdered sugar hot out of the oven. It was intended for the sugar to melt. But once cooled, she would sift the powdered sugar on top and they looked so pretty. They were so delicate, they would melt in your mouth! Mmmm...I miss her. She was a master baker with an Angels touch. And THIS was my favorite!! Thanks for the memories, Miss Paula!! 😊💖 A wonderful day to all...💕 XOXO
@@jak30341 I think this was my mother's version of the Italian Wedding cake. She/we would roll them into balls. We also made another version of this recipe that was in the crescent shape but they were rolled in cinnamon sugar. Those were awesome, too! 😊 Have a great day! 💗
My favorite Christmas cookies are the classic sugar ones, with thick colored frosting, in the shape of bells, trees, candy canes, etc. When I was growing up, our neighbor always brought us a tray of these every single year, and I absolutely loved them. I should let her know! I'm 34 now, and I bet she'd be tickled to hear that.
Good Morning Y'all...I love this cookie recipe it is always on my frigerator because I make them so often. I make these cookies for all my get together's . You can never eat just one of these cookies you will always be running back for more. Thank you Paula for all your love you give us daily on here♥️. We love you guys dearly . Now my favorite cookie at Christmas is... my orange slice cookie so amazing😋. Paula, Eddie, Teresa have a wonderful Sunday love from Alabama. All my friends on here ...have a beautiful day .Be safe big hugs to to guys 🤗♥️
This cookie rocks!!! 😋 Christmastime always brings back such wonderful memories of my childhood. Helping my mother bake, decorating the house, the tree, the colored lights on the bushes, (my father's job), Christmas eve parties, shopping, wrapping, cooking, EATING!!!! Yikes!! Life was so fun and carefree back then. Remember, Sweetie? 😋💕💖😊
@@heidid5275 yes I love Christmas time ...sorry I'm just getting to you love you my friend 🤗♥️ Love the memories with family as a kid baking on Christmas
We have made your recipe for Sand Tarts ever since I saw it in a magazine. It’s a tradition and our family’s favorite Christmas cookie! Thanks to you and your Grandma for sharing. Love your videos...and you!
Pass me that plate of gorgeous cookies, please Paula! At holiday times my sweet mother used to make pecan tassies, which were small, individual pecan pies, about the size of a miniature muffin, plus she made delicious sugar cookies, using a cookie press. I make a lot of fudge at Christmas and give it away as gifts.
My grandma used to make these Italian cookies that uses a batter and a flower shaped iron you dipped into the batter and then fry them in oil! Sprinkled with powdered sugar or honey!! Sooo light and crispy and delicious! I miss my grandma so much! 💖💖
Ohh Paula I didn't know you had a channel here on UA-cam! And I love you so much! My children loved to watch your show when they were kids and the enjoyed it as much as I did. I am so happy to see you again. God bless you!
Those are some beautiful cookies . I do love those wedding or shortbread cookies. Miss Paula, you were talking about Americus Georgia . My daddy's mother was from Americus and I remember going down there when I was a little girl to meet that side of my grandmother's family. My grandmother lived in Lithonia Ga. though. I always love seeing your doggies too. Thank you for sharing another delicious recipe with us !! ❤🎄🍪
My dad's mom made stuffed dates, thumbprint cookies with fruit preserves and a pair of crocheted slippers for our christmas gifts. That was our favorite gift to open.
My favorite were the POLISH KOLACZKI COOKIES. Pronounced kolotch-kee. A cream cheese dough filled with apricot preserves. My mom would fill them with prune filling too 😋😋😋
My mom was a wonderful cookie baker. She made so many yummy cookies. I loved the date pinwheels, raisin puffs. And spritz. Those look so good Paula. 😘👍🏼❤️🐾
I have a name suggestion for the you tube shows...Paula's Country Kitchen. I love you Paula, you bring me so much joy and laughter, as well as comforting my soul. Blessings to you all!
My 3 brothers and I each have boys about a year within of each other. My mother baked sugar cookies with those 4 knuckleheads when then were around 14 years old. Rolling out dough, cutting out Christmas shapes, mixing colored frosting and decorating with every kind of sprinkle and colored sugar she had. Some truly thick and ugly cookies were made along with my favorite cookie making memories of my dear departed mother.
Thank you for sharing the cornflake cookies recipe! Thank you,thankyou! I thought I would never taste them again, never knew what they were called but I dang sure recognized them when they came out of the oven. Made them already. So wonderful. I will be making sand cookies tomorrow. Have a blessed day!
I’m 40 now but my grandma was from the south and never measured a thing. She would make sugar cookies and let us decorate them for Christmas, with homemade icing and it was my favorite thing to do with her 🥰 I wish I could share with you the pictures of the cookies that we made from the 1980s!
Miss Paula, I do have to say that you look so pretty today! I have watched you for so long, I spent a month in the hospital back in the early 2000’sand your tv show was the only thing that helped me get thru each day! I love when your son Bobby joins you because he gives us ideas on giving back to others like your family does, when you made the kitchen sink cookies. Our families favorites for Christmas has always been coconut and peanut butter balls, plus cinnamon and peppermint rock candy, fudge, After Christmas I would like to see you do healthy recipes, I am also Diabetic like you, and struggle so. Thank you again for making these videos I hope you never stop. Love and best dishes.❤️
These are my favorite cookies. My mom made them every year as well as many others. She would start in early December, put them in tins, seal them with tape, and keep them in the garage where it was cool. We knew if my brothers disappeared during a visit before Christmas, they would be in the garage raiding the cookies! Thank you for doing these videos. I watch every one and have tried several recipes...all very good! PS: That pink top is a great color for you! Have a great week!😁
Every year around Christmas time, my Grandma would make those No Bake Chocolate Peanut Butter Oatmeal cookies. You know, the drop ones? She passed away last year from a brain aneurysm. 😔. This year, in memory of her, I’m making those cookies, along with jars of Russian Tea (which she loved) and an “in loving memory” picture ornament for family gifts. I absolutely love this series and all of your quarantine videos. They’ve been such an amazing diversion from all of the craziness that this year has entailed. Please keep them going. ❤️
My grandmama would make what she called preacher cookies and those are still my favorite. They're probably not considered to be a Christmas cookie but they sure are good! You really can't go wrong with chocolate, peanut butter and oatmeal. Thanks for sharing your grandmama's sand tart recipe with us.
YUM! Our Cookie Monsters loves cookies! Our favorite is all of them, with five grandchildren & two greats no one objects to any cookie. Six year old great & Papaw often make boxed brownies together (he won't venture to homemade brownies). Love your videos! Thank you Paula Deen for just being you💝
My momma made a sugar cookie recipe she got out of a very old institutional cookbook. She would cut the recipe into an eighth of the original recipe, and we'd still get about 8-10 dozen cookies out of it...depending on what cookie cutters we used. I LOVED THOSE COOKIES!!! They were from a non refrigerated dough... just mix it up, roll it out and cut and bake cookies! THEY WERE THE BEST SOFT SUGAR COOKIES EVER!!! When her house burned down, the cookbook naturally was lost... I've NEVER been able to find another sugar cookie recipe that comes anywhere close to those cookies...
I make a shortbread cookie in the shape of Christmas trees with a little bit of finely chopped fresh rosemary and dusted with powdered sugar. They are really good. Kind of weird I know, but they have this hint of savory and buttery sweet thing going on.
My mom would make Sandbuckle tarts. We would fill with lemon pie filling, cherry pie filling, chocolate pie pudding and topped with cool whip or eat plain. So good!
Have such fond memories of making the lemon blossoms for my son's 5th birthday party! Stayed up late making them! He is 16 now! They were the durst things to go!!
Chilling the dough makes the dough easier to work with. Also creating a long rope and cutting them makes the crescents faster to make. My favorite is a Swedish bridge cookie that is a delicate thin cookie, baked on bridge forms, iced and sprinkles.2nd is an All Night cookie.
My favorite holiday cookie. No bake chocolate haystacks with the oriental noodles. They’re fast, easy and cheap. Definitely why my mom would make them. Love to all from Loveland, Colorado ❤️
I have fond memories of my mother and I baking Christmas cookies. We would bake all day. Favorites ?? Sugar cookies with colored sugar and I would put red hots on mine. Then there was a chocolate cookie that you rolled in powered sugar and bake. The cookies would flatten slightly and the sugar would crack. Yummy. Happy Sunday Paula and crew.
My mom used to make oatmeal cookies. The ones on the Quaker oatmeal box. She’d put golden raisins in them for me but when my kids came along she left out raisins for my son and put them in for me and my daughter. I haven’t made them since she passed away in 2012. You may have inspired me to make them this year.
My Aunt from Germany made these She added crushed hazelnuts and called them crescent cookies. U can also roll them into balls and roll in powdered sugar or granulated sugar mixed with cinnamon. Yummy either way.
Two of my favorite cookies is a big sugar cookie and it has a cup of Wesson oil in it. They are so tender. Another favorite that a friend of mine makes are called “Meltaways” and have corn starch in them and a light frosting on top. Delicious!
Most cookies are so elaborate anymore. Just plain sugar cookies cut out with Christmas cookie cutters & decorated with a variety of pretty stuff & maybe simple frosting are just great. And traditional. 🎄🎅 ⛄
My favorite Christmas cookie was my mothers butter cookies. She would add squeeze the dough through a cookie press. They were sooooo good! Also loved her cornflake wreath cookies which were basically rice crispy treats made with cornflakes instead of rice crispys. Green food color and a few red hots made them look like wreathes.She also made Santas Whiskers cookies and simple sugar cookies were always wonderful
Miss Paula, you sure do look BEAUTIFUL in no matter what you wear! Even without any makeup! I've been with you from the VERY START OF YOUR CAREER. I sure hope to meet you one day & eat in one of your restaurants. I CAN HOPE & DREAM! Love & Happy Holiday's to you, your ENTIRE FAMILY & EDDIE & THERESA! God Bless ya'll ~ Hugs from a "Northerner" like Eddie lol ~ Anita S.
You could add all kinds of different flavorings to the powdered sugar: cocoa, ground up peppermint candies, ground up red hot candies, lemon or lime or orange zest..... the sky is the limit! Multiple bowls with different flavors. Paula you are a genius!
Curious1ne Ueckeka My sister-in-law always makes those at Christmas. There is a trick to getting that iron just hot enough. Think it’s a German cookie.
I love Gingerbread cookies, I remember years ago you made a boy and girl gingerbread cookies. Growing up i didn't have Christmas cookies. I would love to see you make them again.
My mom made lady fingers, cheese straws and sausage balls. I miss this so much. To share a special time with you. A few years ago I came to Savannah and ate at The Lady and Sons. It was so good. I was hopeing to meet you but you were not there. I love watching your show on UTube. I live here in Warner Robins. I have made many trips to Albany to see a friend that did my hair. I am paralyzed now from a motorcycle accident so I don't get out much. Love and hugs to you and your family.
Paula every year my mother made my father’s favorite cookie, and I’ve never seen anyone else make it...Spiced Gumdrop Cookies. The were similar to an oatmeal cookie but they contained shredded coconut and chopped spiced gum drop cookies.
I called them snowballs or crescent cookies, my mom always made them for Christmas. But where’s the nuts, we always put walnuts or pecans in them. Kept the videos coming Paula!
Our lifelong family favorite are Melt in the Mouth Cookies. It is a very thin cookie with ground pecans in it and they only bake for 5-6 minutes. Parchment paper is a must for baking as if you take them off the cookie sheet too soon they will tear but if you leave them on too long you almost have to chisel them off. Parchment paper was a game changer for this cookie!
I make these every year at Christmas. Roll them into balls, bake and run through the sugar twice. I also make your lemon blossoms a couple of times a year. They are a favorite with my family.
My Momma made pies from scratch during the holidays. I don't remember her making cookies and my Grandma I didn't spend time alone with her, she passed away when I was 13 y/o too.
We call them either wedding cookies or pecan balls. We added the pecan ( chopped ) in with the cookie dough One of my favorites is store bought sugar cookie dough and added dried cranberries and pistachios. Another one is also made with the sugar cookie dough and added white chocolate chips and dried cherries. Both are delicious!
Oh golly gosh .. These look delicious !!! I am planning to start a tradition this year with my granddaughter.. So excited to get her here ! Happy Holidays to y'all !
Paula, my mother used to make these for Christmas and she would tint half of them green and half of them red. Then she'd shape them into candy canes. When they're coated with powdered sugar, they're really pretty. My sister took it a step farther. She would have a color theme for her tree every year and match these cookies to it like silver and blue or gold and red. You just need to brush them with edible metallic looking glaze while they're still warm before you dip them in the sugar. It turns out really pretty to put out a plate of them when people come over.
We call them snowball cookies. I make them every Christmas. It's one of my youngest son's favorites. My oldest son's favorite is my molasses cookies. My favorite is the frosted cutout sugar cookies.
My favorite and that of my families that I always get request from are thumbprint cookies! My favorite filling is either blueberry or raspberry preserves. 🤗
Hi Paula, I have had a COOKIE SHOOTER since the 70's, and I make Sandies every year in multiple shapes.They are cute, and LOVED BY EVERYONE. ALTHOUGH IT IS A PAIN IN THE *** haveing to refill the tube all of the time. I LOVE WATCHING ALL OF YOUR SHOWS, and Specially when the boys are in the kitchen with you. All of you just keep me in stitches laughing. You are my SUNSHINE on the most gloomy days. I LOVE YOU SI MUCH.
Eddie, you are thinking of the Greek cookie, Kourabiedes. We always liked date n nut spiral cookies, thumbprints with a dab of strawberry jam, ladylocks, which were a lot of work but they were so good! Also, miniature nut horns (my mom used to make) and linzer cookies with blackberry jelly (sandwich type cookie), very pretty!
My favorite cookie is nut tossies......paula you make those cookies on love and best dishes 😋 love yall paula...theresa....eddie ....its Christmas in July 2021
Sugar Cookies. Mom had a Snuff glass that had a star pattern in the bottom of it and she would dip it in sugar and press them out. They came out with a Lacey looking star on top. They were pretty and tasted soooo good! Finger lickin' good. Love you Paula.
My Mom made kolackies, She was Italian not polish but They were great.She got the recipe somewhere they are so good I think it might be because the dough has Cream cheese.. You sprinkle powered sugar ion them. This recipe looks like the almond crescents cookie. I like the butter cookies they are so easy to make You put through a cookie press. Yum
Hi Paula. Our tradition was to make cut-out cookies with colored buttercream frosting from Betty Crocker. It was something we looked forward to every year.
I’ve been baking thumbprint cookies for 37 years now filled in the indentation with raspberry jam. So delicious.
Would you care to share your recipe?
@@jackien.456 yeah, that would great! I always love an old school recipe. I'm an elementary school cafeteria chef and we make some good newer things, but some of the absolute best recipes are from those elderly church ladies and ones that are passed down through the generations.
My momma is 93 and still bakes these sand tarts every year! She add pecans, cinnamon and a touch of nutmeg. She got the recipe in 1956 when she got married! My favorite cookie!
That's wonderful that your mom is still making magic in the kitchen. Tell her hello and God bless a good cook.

Mexican Wedding Cakes
Kourabiedes
As kids we wouldn't eat those because they always left a trail when we were sneaking cookies😉
Snickerdoodles! They will always be my favorite cookie my momma made during the holidays.

I loved lemon bars, nut cups, potato chip cookies, peanut butter thumbprints with jam, peanut butter (using crunchy peanut butter and honey), lemon shortbread, ginger snaps, stained glass cookies, fried apples mini hand pies/cookies
My mother made the best fried rosettes sprinkled lightly with powdered sugar.

Omg i haven't had any of those of years! Maybe this year I will have to make some.

Gingerbread is so delicious 😋
Mother use to make these smack your Momma crescent 🌙 cookies. They were so delicious 😋. I make them today and they are my cherished favorite cookies.
Make fruitcake cookies please.
I wish I could tell you a favorite Christmas cookie of mine, but I simply loved them all! Still do.
My mom made lady fingers, cheese straws and sausage balls. I miss this so much.
To share a special time with you. A few years ago I came to Savannah and ate at The Lady and Sons. It was so good. I was hopeing to meet you but you were not there. I love watching your show on UTube. I live here in Warner Robins. I have made many trips to Albany to see a friend that did my hair.
I am paralyzed now from a motorcycle accident so I don't get out much.
Love and hugs to you and your family.
My Mom would date and butter cookies were two of my favorites!
Paula every year my mother made my father’s favorite cookie, and I’ve never seen anyone else make it...Spiced Gumdrop Cookies. The were similar to an oatmeal cookie but they contained shredded coconut and chopped spiced gum drop cookies.
They are good, my mom made these too.
I called them snowballs or crescent cookies, my mom always made them for Christmas. But where’s the nuts, we always put walnuts or pecans in them. Kept the videos coming Paula!
Our lifelong family favorite are Melt in the Mouth Cookies. It is a very thin cookie with ground pecans in it and they only bake for 5-6 minutes. Parchment paper is a must for baking as if you take them off the cookie sheet too soon they will tear but if you leave them on too long you almost have to chisel them off. Parchment paper was a game changer for this cookie!
Koulourakia! Greek cookies buttery rich and hand formed. Great with tea and coffee!
My mother had a gadget called a cookie press which created cookies in many different shapes. Christmas trees, stars etc.
I make these every year at Christmas. Roll them into balls, bake and run through the sugar twice. I also make your lemon blossoms a couple of times a year. They are a favorite with my family.
I love your theme Paula! Very much looking forward to all of your uploads😁❤ You and your home look beautiful! Keep up the great work!
I all ways 💖💖💖 the Bourbon Balls.
My Momma made pies from scratch during the holidays. I don't remember her making cookies and my Grandma I didn't spend time alone with her, she passed away when I was 13 y/o too.
We call them either wedding cookies or pecan balls. We added the pecan ( chopped ) in with the cookie dough
One of my favorites is store bought sugar cookie dough and added dried cranberries and pistachios. Another one is also made with the sugar cookie dough and added white chocolate chips and dried cherries. Both are delicious!
My mom made skillet date cookies with butter and cereal and nuts and I love love love them! If you don't have the recipe I will send it to you.
Oh golly gosh .. These look delicious !!! I am planning to start a tradition this year with my granddaughter.. So excited to get her here ! Happy Holidays to y'all !
My favorite Christmas cookie was and is Date Rollups!
Is this the same as a date nut pinwheel
Paula, my mother used to make these for Christmas and she would tint half of them green and half of them red. Then she'd shape them into candy canes. When they're coated with powdered sugar, they're really pretty. My sister took it a step farther. She would have a color theme for her tree every year and match these cookies to it like silver and blue or gold and red. You just need to brush them with edible metallic looking glaze while they're still warm before you dip them in the sugar. It turns out really pretty to put out a plate of them when people come over.
Yes they’re Lady Fingers, I’m from GA. I’m used to them having nuts mixed in with the dough.
Yes, Has to have nuts in them!!
Those are my favorites, I make them every year, there in my sisters cookbook, my grandson Camden loves them.
Yum! My favorite are my mom’s honey cookies. I still make them every year.
We call them snowball cookies. I make them every Christmas. It's one of my youngest son's favorites. My oldest son's favorite is my molasses cookies. My favorite is the frosted cutout sugar cookies.
My favorite and that of my families that I always get request from are thumbprint cookies! My favorite filling is either blueberry or raspberry preserves. 🤗
My mother made 15 to 20 different types of cookies every Christmas but my favorite were date filled Italian cookies and chocolate crinkle cookies.
You look lovely, Ms. Paula. My favorite cookie is Old Fashioned Tea Cakes.
Hi Paula, I have had a COOKIE SHOOTER since the 70's, and I make Sandies every year in multiple shapes.They are cute, and LOVED BY EVERYONE. ALTHOUGH IT IS A PAIN IN THE *** haveing to refill the tube all of the time.

Sand tarts..absolutely my family’s favorites!
Eddie, you are thinking of the Greek cookie, Kourabiedes. We always liked date n nut spiral cookies, thumbprints with a dab of strawberry jam, ladylocks, which were a lot of work but they were so good! Also, miniature nut horns (my mom used to make) and linzer cookies with blackberry jelly (sandwich type cookie), very pretty!
My favorite cookie is nut tossies......paula you make those cookies on love and best dishes 😋 love yall paula...theresa....eddie ....its Christmas in July 2021
Sugar Cookies. Mom had a Snuff glass that had a star pattern in the bottom of it and she would dip it in sugar and press them out. They came out with a Lacey looking star on top. They were pretty and tasted soooo good! Finger lickin' good. Love you Paula.
My mother made meringues and when I make them now I add crushed pistachios in them. Delicious!
I would love to see how you have decorated your house for Christmas.
Paula just love your channel please keep doing them God bless x
I loved my Mother dearly,alas she never baked cookies!!
My Mom made kolackies, She was Italian not polish but They were great.She got the recipe somewhere they are so good I think it might be because the dough has Cream cheese.. You sprinkle powered sugar ion them. This recipe looks like the almond crescents cookie. I like the butter cookies they are so easy to make You put through a cookie press. Yum
Hi Paula. Our tradition was to make cut-out cookies with colored buttercream frosting from Betty Crocker. It was something we looked forward to every year.
No-bake Chocolate Peanut Butter balls are my family's favorite. The kind with rice krispies.
Thumbprints with raspberry jelly in the center. Yummy!
Yes l9ve everything you do! How about the pressed spritz cookie next year.
My sister's Swiss friend always used to import Lebkuchen biscuits at Christmas time. Spicy and delicious.
