I make these cookies for Thanksgiving and Christmas as presents. Decorating them in the colors of the season makes for a nice present. If I just would stop nibbling on them, my presents would be larger :) Cookies are not real sweet, but are soft and moist and perfect for tea.
Ingredients:
1 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup butter flavored shortening
2 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon apple pie spice
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 egg
2 cups whole wheat flour
2 teaspoons white sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 pound mini candy-coated chocolates
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
2. In large bowl, combine first 10 ingredients and blend well. Stir in whole wheat flour.
3. Shape into 1 inch balls and place on ungreased cookie sheet, 2 inches apart. Flatten each cookie slightly with a fork.
4. Combine sugar and cinnamon and sprinkle over each cookie. Decorate with M and M's.
5. Bake in pre-heated oven for 8 to 10 minutes or until light golden brown.
