Does anyone have any good Christmas cookie recipes?

Given last year's chocolate chip muffin debacle, I am looking for holiday
cookies that are delicious but extremely *EASY* to make. I need cookies
that look good on their own without fancy decorations like icing,
sprinkles,
tiny silver balls, and such. Someone suggested Rum Balls but I think I am
ready for something that requires baking. I have the use of a KitchenAid
power mixer this year so I am hoping I will be able to mix a few batches
in
no time.

TIA

Someone gave me a recipe for drunken fruit along with a starter. I believe
it's also called friendship fruit. It can be used as a topping on desserts
or in cakes or other dishes. I remember that you don't put it in the frig
because that stops the process. I can't find the recipe and would like to
start a batch. Can anyone help me?

Many years ago I had a recipe for Monkey bread, but I haven't made it
for years. I can't find the recipe, so I went looking online. All the
recipes I can find say you roll the bread balls in a mixture of sugar
and cinnamon, and then pour the brown sugar/butter sauce over top. My
original recipe is different, instead of rolling the balls in
sugar/cinnamon, the sauce was brown sugar/butter/cinnamon and the balls
were rolled in this sticky sauce, with the excess being poured over top.
Can anyone help me locate this version of the recipe? I think it tastes
better because each piece is coated with the cinnamon goo.

At a salad restaurant they have been making a Thai salad with spaghetti
and chicken. It has a spicy peanut sauce. I am looking for a recipe for
this so I can make it at home. Thanks

I read about tomato Florentine. It sounds like the tomatoes are stuffed
with spinach but I can.t be sure. A recipe, please!

cherry. Thanks
