I love the delicious names of the cookies in this link: http://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whats-your-favorite-christmas-cookie

I figure like me there are others who'd love to try out some on their own families this year, so we need a place to share the recipes.

I'll start:

Christmas Fingers
AKA two day cookies
source: a magazine, but can't remember which one, oops!

1c unsalted softened butter
1/2c icing sugar
1t vanilla
2c flour
1/2c mini chips (regular size ones will result in broken cookies)

Cream butter, sugar and vanilla with electric blender until blended
On low speed beat in flour until blended
Stir in chocolate chips
Cover and chill until firm ( a few hours, no more than 24 hours or it will crumble)
Shape into fingers about 3 inches long
Place on lightly greased cookie sheets
Bake at 350 for 8 minutes or until golden brown
Remove to wire rack to cool
Melt additional chips and a bit of vegetable oil
Dip cookie fingers into melt and place on wax paper to dry
Makes about 36
