Christmas Cookies - Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer

Ingredients
Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe Already on this Site
Small Pretzel Twists
M & M's

After placing the cookie dough on the baking sheet, and you must leave more space between the cookies, take two pretzel twists and place them in the dough to make the antlers.  Then add two M & M's, any color but red, for eyes and one red M & M for Rudolph's nose.  Bake as directed.

This is definitely a crowd pleaser and little kids really enjoy them.  They are fun and easy to make.  The mix of the salt from the pretzels with the chocolate is very tasty.

Yes-You-Can Easy Layered Cookies

Ingredients
2 pkgs Nabisco Graham Crackers
1 stick Butter, melted
1 can Eagle Brand Sweetened Condensed Milk
1/2 cup Nestle Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
1/4 cup Baker's Shredded Coconut
1/2 cup Mini M&Ms
Any other toppings you like Alternate Toppings

For these easy layered cookies, graham crackers make the base. Pour the butter over the crushed cookies. Now add your layers. For a chocolate decadant cookie, use chocolate graham crackers. Then add a touch of coconut (the coconut helps give the cookies firmness). Add chocolate chips and mini M&Ms. (You can always add dark chocolate chips and white chocolate chips too. At Christmas, add the red and green chips.)

For a variation, use cinnamon graham crackers and then add all kinds of nuts: pecans, pistachios, cashews, walnuts etc. Or make a pina colada cookie and use coconut, pineapple and cherries.

Kids love to make these because there is a lot of sprinkling and they get to add all the things they like such as peanut butter chips and marshmallows.

Start with crushed graham crackers. Use chocolate graham crackers for extra chocolate. (I use the cinnamon graham crackers when I make nutty cookies.)

Pour the melted butter over the crushed graham crackers.

The second layer is coconut. If you think you don't like coconut then just add 1/4 c. If you really like coconut, add a little more.

Chocolate, chocolate and more chocolate! Add mini M&Ms.

After drizzling the entire can of the sweetened condensed milk over the layered ingredients, bake for 25 minutes at 300 F. Cut cookies in to squares and let cool. Eat and Enjoy!
