Nothing says Valentine's Day like cook-shees! (Well, maybe 2 dozen long-stemmed roses, or a box of truffles, or a candlelit dinner or a romantic getaway... sigh!) I just needed to make these tasty cook-shees today. I love any shortbread type of cook-shee and these are the pip because they have raspberry as well!
I got this Linzer cook-shee recipe a couple of years ago. They are a little time consuming, but well worth the effort... especially if you don't go and burn one batch like I did :-(

I'll take the cook-shies. they look yummy.
My famous sugar cookies are all buttery like that too...and crazy soft. But today soft and delicious Black and White cookies are on the menu :)
Cook-shes, huh? Well, I made some oatmeal ones with whole wheat flour, wheat germ, coconut, raisins and orange peel. Jim shared some at Christmastime,so I got the recipe. The funny thing is, I was talking to Kjirsten [Jim's dau] the other day. She was repeating a conversation with her 12-yr-old son about Grandpa's cookies -- Jim had tried a new combination of ingredients. Kjirsten asked, "How are the cookies?" and Jaaron didn't say too much -- "Old people cookies?" she queried. "Uh-huh," grunted Jaaron. So I make OldPeopleCookshees, compared to yours, but they are good -- if you don't have shortbread/raspberry to compare them with!!
