From: Chris Susalski <DntlQueen@...> Date: Wed, 17 Jul 1996 01:39:08 -0400 Here's some I got out of the Nov 1, 1995 issue of Woman's Day, "Fabulous Food Gifts." I've got many more if you like what's there so far. Hope this is what you're looking for. Ho ho ho! :)

1. Beat butter, sugar, lemon peel, ginger and baking soda in a large bowl with an electric mixer until fluffy. Beat in egg. With mixer on low speed, beat in flour, half at a time, until blended.

2. Divide dough in half. Roll each half into a 9-inch log. Roll in nuts until logs are 12 inches long. Wrap each in plastic wrap. Refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight until firm.

3. Heat oven to 350 degrees.

4. Cut logs in ¼ inch slices. Place 1 inch apart on greased cookie sheet(s). Bake 10 to 12 minutes until firm and edges are barely golden.

Remove to racks to cool. Store airtight.
