Simple Cut-Out Sugar Cookies and Royal Icing

Because it's almost Halloween and the holiday season is coming up, I wanted to share a recipe that would work well with any holiday and/or occasion.  

These cookies are extremely soft, slightly sweet and very flavorful.  The cool thing about these cookies are that they can be made to fit any occasion and it really just depends on how you shape them.  I've made them for about every holiday that I can think of.  For example, Easter, St. Patricks Day, The Fourth of July, Halloween, and Christmas to name a few.

Raspberry Almond Rugelach

Freshly baked rugelach is something truly to die for.  Soft, slightly sweet, with a hint of almond, and a slight tang from the raspberry jam, you really can't just have one and say you are good to go.  I've been wanting to make these for awhile now but, never really found the time.  From all the homework to the exams that I had this month, I rarely have time to bake or cook anything at all.
