Man oh Man...Paula is driving me crazy for cookies! Getting out the Oreo's! Since I’m on a cookie kick.. here is another favorite of mine.

When Paula makes cookies - Man does she make cookies! She writes: Cookies.. my favorite indulgence.. keep the chocolate, keep the pies and cake but you better hide the cookies. My idea of the perfect dessert is a variety of them. This looks difficult but honestly, it is easy and delicious. Italian Cookies Ingredients: 5 1/2 Cups Flour 1 1/4 Cup Sugar 4 Large Eggs, Separated, beat the yolks (reserve the whites) 2 Cups Butter or Margarine 1 Ounce Whiskey ***Zest of 1 Lemon Confectioner’s Sugar for dusting ***Lemon Zest is the outermost part of the rind of an orange, lemon, or other citrus fruit, used as flavoring. On a lemon, it is the yellow part of the peel on the outside of a lemon. It has an intense lemon/citrus flavor with very little bitterness. The bitterness is primarily found in the white part of the lemon. When removing the skin from lemons or other citrus fruits, be sure to take only the thin outer zest or colored portion. The white pith will give your dish a bitter underta...
