Grandma Bettys Candle Cookies Recipes

GRANDMA BETTY'S CANDLE COOKIES

Steps:

• Mix together sugar, margarine, peanut butter, and rice krispies together and form into balls. (As large/small as you want them. I make them smaller than a golf ball.).
• In a double boiler, melt the chocolate bar and chips together and add paraffin wax, may add more wax if needed.
• Once chocolate is melted, dip the balls in chocolate and place on wax paper to cool.
• After the balls settle, store them away. We keep them in the refrigerator or freezer during the holidays.

BETTY BROWN'S BUTTER COOKIES

Steps:

• Beat butter, sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract together in a bowl using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Sift flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt together in a separate bowl; mix, 1 cup at a time, into creamed butter mixture until dough is just mixed. Form dough into 1-inch-thick disks and place on a plate; chill in refrigerator, 2 hours to overnight.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Roll disks into desired thickness on a lightly floured work surface using a floured rolling pin. Arrange dough on a baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until cookies are just starting to turn golden brown, 7 to 10 minutes.

GRANDMA'S CLASSIC NO-BAKE COOKIES
