HEDGEHOG COOKIES
Steps:
- Mix flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl. Whisk sugar, shortening, corn syrup, eggs, and vanilla extract in a separate bowl. Stir sugar mixture into flour mixture until just combined. Refrigerate dough until chilled, 30 minutes to 1 hour.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Scoop cookie dough using a cookie scoop or 1 tablespoon so all the cookies are uniform; shape dough into teardrop-shaped cookies. Flatten the pointed side of each cookie to form the 'face'. Arrange cookies on baking sheets.
- Bake in the preheated oven until golden, 10 to 12 minutes. Cool on the baking sheets for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.
- Pulse pecans in a food processor until finely chopped; transfer to a bowl.
- Melt chocolate chips in the top of a double boiler over simmering water, stirring frequently and scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching.
- Dip the top of each cookie in the melted chocolate, spreading to fully coat the 'body' of each hedgehog. Press cookies, chocolate-side down, into the ground pecans forming the 'fur'. Arrange cookies on a sheet of waxed paper to set, about 30 minutes.
- Transfer the remaining melted chocolate to a piping bag or plastic bag with a corner snipped. Pipe chocolate onto the pointed end of each cookie for eyes and a nose.

Steps:
- Mix cold butter and flour in a food processor until it is crumbly - don't overmix.
- Put the butter mixture into a large mixing bowl, then add the confectioners' sugar, egg, vanilla and salt. Mix with a spatula until smooth.
- Flatten the cookie dough into a large oval and wrap with plastic wrap. Pop in the fridge to cool for 30 minutes.
- After chilling, make the hedgehogs by breaking off a piece of dough a little smaller than a ping pong ball. Roll the dough into a ball and pinch out a nose shape (see the video above). Lay all your hedgehogs out on a baking tray lined with baking paper (parchment) and pop them into the freezer for 30 minutes to chill.
- Preheat the oven to 350 F.
- When chilled, bake for 18-20 minutes, until the noses are slightly golden. Pop them onto a cooling rack and allow to cool completely.
- Break the pretzels in half, then break the circle shape on each side of the pretzel to make an antler. Match the antlers up in pairs ready to go.
- Dip your hedgehogs - bottom first - into melted chocolate. Submerge to a little over halfway. Rest them on baking paper (parchment) and decorate with your special Christmas colors.
- Now, it's time to get your Christmas vibe really pumping. Grab a pair of antlers and hold them in place in the gooey chocolate on a hedgehog. Keep holding. Song time! Sing 'Rudolph the Red-Nosed Hedgehog' through all the way at least once. I recommend twice. Through the magic of song (and a little time) the antlers should now adhere to the chocolate.
- When you've done all of your antlers (your voice may be somewhat hoarse by now), dab on the melted chocolate for the eyes and nose with a toothpick. Finally, pop that cute little red nose in place. It will only take a couple of seconds to stick (no singing required unless you want to).
- First up, make the Santa hats by piping a little bit of royal icing around the bottom of the gummy raspberry and a dollop on top. Leave them to dry.
- Dip your hedgehogs - bottom first - into melted chocolate. Submerge to a little over halfway. Rest them on baking paper (parchment).
- After you have dipped all of your hedgehogs' bottoms in the chocolate and lined them up on a tray lined with baking paper, apply the red sprinkles.
- Carefully place a Santa hat on top of each hedgehog. You may need to hold it in place for a few seconds until it sticks. Use a toothpick to dab on the eyes and nose. Ho ho ho!
- Dip your hedgehogs - bottom first - into melted chocolate. Submerge to a little over halfway. Rest them on baking paper (parchment).
- Apply the sprinkles while they are still wet. When they are dry, add the finishing touches using a skewer or toothpick to dab a tiny bit of melted chocolate for two little eyes and a nose.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Toast the walnuts until lightly browned, 12 to 15 minutes. Let cool, then finely grind them in a food processor. Sift flour and salt into a bowl and set aside. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment on low speed, beat together the butter and sugar until lightened, about 4 minutes. Add the yolk and mix until fully incorporated. Add the dry ingredients and walnuts and mix just to combine. If the dough is soft, wrap it tightly in plastic and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Otherwise, roll out the dough about 1/2 inch thick on a lightly floured work surface into a 6-by-7-inch rectangle. Using a ruler, square the edges as much as possible. Using a sharp knife, cut the dough into1-inch squares. Place them about 2 inches apart on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Sprinkle lightly with sea salt. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Bake the cookies until they are firm, about 10 to 12 minutes. Remove to a wire rack to cool. Store in airtight containers for up to 2 weeks.
WALNUT SHORTBREAD COOKIES
This recipe originally came from the back of a Diamond Walnut package back in the 1970's. I started baking a lot when I was in high school and my taste testers were my dad and my parent's best friends. These were their friend Bud's very favorites so I made them quite a bit. I thought I lost the recipe but after about an hour of searching I found it in a stack of recipes that I had given to my mom. I hope you like them as much as Bud did!
