Walnut Frosties
I have no idea where the name Walnut Frosties originated, but my friend Margaret shared a batch of these cookies with us a while back, and with the very first bite, I asked her if she’d pretty please share the recipe with me. She was kind enough to do so and now I’m willing to bet that you’re going to love these Walnut Frosties every bit as much as we do!
The cookie is a brown sugar drop type of cookie. The brown sugar and butter combination makes for the perfect cookie base for the nutty filling. The filling combination of walnuts, sour cream, and brown sugar bakes up into a sweet Brulee-like crust on top of the buttery cookie. To achieve the perfectly filled cookie use your thumb or the back of a melon baller to create a circular indent in the cookie. Then fill the cookie with the walnut filling. Don’t be afraid to overfill just a bit as it will bake down and fill the indentation nicely. If your cookies spread too much while baking chances are your butter was too soft when you started. If the dough seems too soft to me I like to bake a test pan with 2-3 cookies on it first to see how much they spread. Refrigerate the dough for 30 minutes or so to firm it up if it spreads too much. My friend shared that traditionally they make these at Christmas. She had no clue why, it was just what they do. However as delicious as they are I am making them year around!

Cookie Recipes
Cookies and cookie recipes are meant to be shared. Whether it is taking a plate to the neighbors or trading recipes with friends. It doesn’t get much better than sharing all things cookies over a cup of coffee. It is no secret that I keep a full cookie jar. I have a house full of boys constantly on the prowl for a snack. Oatmeal cookies are such a versatile classic. The nuttiness of the oatmeal and sweet chocolate hit the spot when the mid-afternoon munchies come on. You only need a handful of ingredients to make these chewy, chocolate and peanut butter-filled Peanut Butter Cookie Cups. Crisp and chewy at the same time, the best Monster Cookie recipes are loaded with all of my favorite great cookie flavors. Oats, peanut butter, chocolate chips, and even a drop of maple syrup all combine to make my grandmother’s Monster Cookies.
