CHOCOLATESHAVINGS: the nutmeg really comes out in these cookies and instead of being a complimentary spice like in so many other recipes it is the principal for these cookies

KRISTAN: I will bring some of these over to Rotterdam for you and homemade loaf of bread. Your colleagues will be lining up at the door!!

MARJORIE: pleased they were such a success.

If anyone is looking for a new spice rack take a look at this recent post on the Travelers Lunchbox blog http://www.travelerslunchbox.com/journal/2008/10/8/all-spiced-up.html

I made them and ………………..YESSSSS, they really are amazing with the hint of nutmeg. It is interesting that you don’t need much to realize the taste. My “cookie addict” has been caught with his hand in the cookie jar quite often; in fact, they are going fast so we are both happy with the outcome. Sugar cookies will always have a nutmeg flavor from now on. M x

These cookies look incredible. If I had an oven I would make them right away. Nutmeg is such a unique flavor profile. Great idea and perfect photo to tempt my tummy! I will be hinting towards these in France and Geneva. Maybe a care package to Rotterdam? Hint Hint, nudge nudge………

PAUL: I have tried several spice variations with this recipe, however nutmeg was the one that worked the best. Always open to other suggestions though

MARJORIE: hope your cookie addict will like these. Here we were thinking that NUTmeg was a nut – and in the end it is a seed – names and appearances can be deceiving!!!

Thanks for the sugar cookie recipe……………with a twist! I would not have thought of using nutmeg this way but can almost taste them already. Since I have a “cookie addict” in the house, I will try them this weekend and let you know. Nice to read the history of this nut, as I do use this spice a lot but usually in a savory sense. Great photo shot!

Thanks for posting the sugar cookies, with a twist! Wow, I would not have thought of “spicing it up” with nutmeg. I will try them out and let you know. Nice to know the history of this nut as well and always love the photos.

LAUREN : too ture re the spice rack – there will be no where for the spices to run and hide! This looks like a great spacesaver as well – always needed when living in the city! Let me know how you like the cookies

Get your spices in gear with a new spice rack! You’ll use more of them when you actually know what you have… I like the SpiceStack because it stores 27 of YOUR spices from the grocery store in the kitchen cabinet. Check it out at http://www.SpiceStack.com.

Thanks for the great recipes, I can hardly wait to try these cookies!
