Christmas Angel Cookies Recipe

...brought to you by Recipes EU





Christmas Angel Cookies
1/2 cup Shortening
1/2 cup Cream cheese, softened
1 cup Light brown sugar,*
1/2 cup Granulated sugar
2 Eggs
3 cup Flour
1/2 tsp Baking soda
1/2 tsp Salt
1 tbsp Vanilla
2 cup Candied fruit, mixed
2 cup Broken pecans or almonds


* firmly packed

The cream cheese gives these cookies a smooth texture, while the
fruits sparkle and sweeten the flavor. Nice for using the candied
fruits that didn't make it into the fruit cake.

Preheat oven to 350ø.

In a large bowl, cream shortening and cream cheese until smooth and
fluffy. Add sugars and eggs, mixing well. In a seperate bowl, sift
flour, baking soda and salt together.

Add flour mixture to egg and sugar mixture; add vanilla. Mix well.
Add candied fruit and nuts.

Drop by rounded spoonfuls onto lightly oiled cookie sheet and bake
at 350ø for about 10-12 minutes. The cookies will be just browned at
the edges.

Hint: You may have to mix candied fruit and nuts in with your hands; a
little shortening on your fingers will keep the mixture from sticking.

Yield: 3 dozen. Irene Holloway, Chevy Chase, MD

Diet tips

If you enjoy your food, but need to get in shape and increase your general well-being, among other things you should decide on a thoughtfully prepared healthy meal plan. In theory, this must contain five measures of fruit & veg per day and include the right blend of crucial nutrients.

When devising a meal plan, it is essential to also endeavour to cut down your consumption of fats, refined carbohydrate and salt.

Dieters most certainly focus on department store and branded food products professing to be 'low fat'. To do this is ordinarily wrong, seeing that an item can be significantly reduced in fat, but also contain far too much calories and carbs.

Make sure that you drink enough fluids. We all need water , it is indispensable for our physical condition and has no calories. Water is also good in that it fills the dieters tummy and helps reduce sensations of emptiness. A few specialists argue that we should aim to drink at least six cups of plain water each day of the week.

Rather than thinking about which junk foods that you need to remove from your meal plan, concentrate on the healthy foods which you might want to introduce to your meal plan. If one can bring in the recommended portions nutritious grains, cereals and vegetables into your weight loss program, you will find that you feel full and have a significantl;y decreased probability of falling prey to those unwholesome afternoon sweets and chocolates.
