Don’t you hate it when you spill powdered sugar?

Good job! I always think if you are going to make a mess, make it a big one so it's worth the time to clean it up.

I hate it even more, if you breathe it in, it is very fine and makes me cough

Made my 2. batch of lemon wreaths with pistachios, the first batch traveled with my son-in-law to India

Also my 2. batch pecan cookies, the first went the same way as the lemon wreaths did but there are only half of them, the rest is going to the owner of the dog I usually take care of, once of twice a week

I usually keep my cookie dough overnight in the fridge, I think it benefits from being in the fridge longer

I heard a segment on NPR years ago that explained the process. Enzymes begin breaking down the sugar and flour making an umami flavor. Also, chilling them makes them spread better on the pan.
