How can a cookie with only four ingredients taste SO good?
Curt Cutler made his famous Cutler’s Mexican Wedding or Snowball Cookies at our holiday cookie class on Tuesday.
I’m a sucker for anything that resembles a shortbread cookie: one part sugar, two parts butter, three parts flour, no leavening. Oh, and a little powdered sugar to top it off.
Seriously, simplicity never tasted so good.

  1. Si, I wasn't able to come to the Cookie class at South Fork Hardware. Did Curt from Cutler's tell any secrets about their sugar cookies-specifically their glaze recipe??
