It’s cookie baking time once again and this year I am lucky enough to bake with the same special group of baker’s that I have baked with in the past!  So excited!!! 

This year's challenge will feature a minimum of four types of cookies, spread out over four weeks ~ all chosen from Saveur's Smart Cookies: Favorite Holiday Treats From Around the World feature. As in years past, each of us will choose our cookies at random, independently from one another. We may post the same cookies on the same weeks, or we may all post something different. In any case, it will be fun to see everyone's take on the same set of recipes. I know I'm looking forward to it!

Who's involved in this completely fabulous baking group? Here's a complete list:

Be sure to visit each of these blogs weekly and see what the other baking bloggers are up to!

My very late cookies for this week are…
