Yield: 1 servings

Just the smell of these cookies baking is enough to
get you in the holiday spirit.
In a large mixing bowl, cream butter with brown
sugar. Beat eggs and extracts. In another bowl, add
sifted flour and mix baking powder, salt, pepper and
spices. Gradually add flour butter mixture, mixing
well after each addition. Chill 2 hours or overnight.
Preheat oven to 375ø. Shape dough with two teaspoons
into ovals and place on ungreased baking sheets. Bake
8-10 minutes. Carefully remove cookies from baking
sheets to wire racks and sprinkle with confectioners
sugar. Cool and store in airtight containers. These
cookies keep well and mellow with age. They're their
best about 5-8 days after baking.
