I just wanted to let you know that when you make the Black and White Crinkle Cookies in the Holiday Baking Magazine The recipes does not tell you when to add the melted chocolate I add before the flour the cookies are delicous

Paula, thank you so much for sharing all these cookie recipes. I printed several to try for my family. Two of my three grandchildren want to help make cookies this year and the little guy who is 10 years old wants to make a gingerbread house. Be thinking about us while we are making memories. Happy Holidays to you and your family. We are all so lucky to have you as a cooking friend. Another country cook, Mary Lou Cordell

Looking for a cookie recipe that I had at a friends house. It was a sugar cookie dipped in white chocolate with crushed candy canes on top. I was told it was a Paula Deen recipe but I can't seem to find it! Any ideas? And no it is not Meemaw's Kitcheb Sink Cookie - these were definitely a sugar cookie!
By Katie on January 03, 2011

To Ronald Bryant: Try Paula's apple cake recipe "Grandgirl's Fresh Apple Cake From Georgia." It is sooooo good. I think you'll like it!
