Looking for sure to work reciepes: My little one, 3yo, is helping, and gets confused with to many items. Would also like a good recipe for cookie cutter type dough.

I offer this one to start.
Raisin & Chocolate chip (from Nestle toll house)
Once you get the sequence right it's easy.
preheat oven to 375F
In a small bowl:
2-1/4cup ap flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt (optional)
mix above dry ingredients

In the main mixing bowl
2/3cup water
1cup dehdyrated butter [these two items= 1cup butter= 2sticks]
water first then d.butter, mix butter and water then add
3/4cup white sugar
3/4cup brown sugar
mix above items until just creamy

1/4cup water
1/4 dehydrated Egg [whole egg] [these two items= two eggs]
1tsp vanilla
add water & vanilla first then egg, mix well
then add to sugar-butter mix, mix until creamy
Slowly add flour mix,
1 or 2 Tablespoons more water or two, may need to be added to make dough gooey, extra water makes the cookies rise and spread out wider.

Then Add 1-1/2cup choclate chips
add 1cup raisins.

drop onto ungreased cookie sheets.
bake for 9-11 minutes.
enjoy

Thanks.

My favorite peanut butter cookies. 1 egg 1 cup sugar 1 cup peanut butter

Mix. Roll into balls and then in sugar. Bake at 350 until done (about 7 minutes depending on size of cookies). Watch carefully as they can burn quickly. Easy and yummy.

simple, easy, and only 4 ingredients:

BUTTER COOKIES

1-1/2 cups butter, 1-1/2 cups powdered sugar, 2 egg yolks, 4 cups flour.

Cream butter and sugar together, add egg yolks, continue to beat. Add flour and stir well till well blended.

Roll out and cut. Decorate with colored sugar or candies. (Good for christmas cookies.) Bake at 375 till golden brown (10 minutes). Makes about 4 dozen cookies.

Go to http://www.lzs.com.au/%7Elmutimer/oz_history/anzac_7.html for a recipe for Anzac Biscuits (you'd probably call them cookies) - simple and delicious. Also good keepers - unless eaten first. So called because the women used to bake them to send to their menfolk in the Australian and New Zealand Army Corps half a world away during the first World War. It calls for Golden Syrup - don't know whether you'd have that - a golden cane sugar syrup along the lines of treacle, but more refined. If not, treacle or honey or a mixture would work, although the taste wouldn't be traditional.

P.S. those measurements are Imperial. To convert volume, particularly cups, use about 1.25 of your American measures.
