  3. Got the whiskey myself. Maybe just adding a liberal sprinkling to shortbread, and sipping it as well whilst baking??

  6. I think I do in one of older cookbooks. I'll check in the a,m.
    BTW, I'm new here and would like to introduce myself, I'm Victoria M. been reading Dianna Gabaldon's fine books since the early 1990's. Last year, I finally got my husband to read them,
    he didn't think he would care for them since he considered them to be "chic lit" As it turned out, Nothing could have been futher from the truth. He was captured by Dianna's writting and while recovering from a health matter, He read All The Books
    So now after years we can talk about each charater and scene together!

  7. Whiskey Cookies

    1 lb. butter, softened
    2c. powdered sugar (sifted)
    1 egg yolk
    2 generous shots whiskey
    4 c. flour

    Beat butter until fluffy. Add ingredients in order given. Drop by 1/2 tsp. full onto an ungreased cookie sheet. Place pecan, candied cherries, chocolate jimmies, colored sugars or dip half in chocolate and sprinkle with fine crushed nuts. Bake in 350 degree oven for 25 minutes. Watch for cookies to brown around edges. Makes 8 dozen and they freeze well.
