This cookie says, "Welcome to the holiday season", like no other cookie I have ever had, The subtle sage and the salt/sweet combo along with the buttery overtones combine to make a classic cookie even better. And to make it even better, these jewels are super-easy! From now on, this one will be in Chez' permanent Cookie Recipe Box! {I'm wondering if the flavors would play as well together if the herb was rosemary? Hmmmm...}
