Have you ever had a recipe that just haunts you every time you go into your recipe file? Well, this one is it for me. I was looking through my cookie file the other day to begin selecting the cookie recipes that I want to bake for Christmas, and this owl cookie recipe flew out at me which it does every time I go into the file because I keep thinking, "oh, I want to make these!" But it's been five years since I tore the page out of the October issue of Sunset magazine and even though I think they are so very cute I never got around to making them. That is until this week.
Just a warning though. If you make these (and I hope you will) you will be tempted to eat a few while you are decorating them because you can smell the fragrant nutmeg and cinnamon that's in them. It was hard not to pop a couple in my mouth. They don't look as perfect as Sunset's, but boy, they sure taste good. You can download the recipe and owl template from Sunset magazine.
How cute! I'm still practicing my cookie-decorating skills, so I'm jealous how well yours turned out!
