We all look forward to the mishloach manos from the friends who spend time making homemade confections. The time and creativity that goes into these gift baskets is truly second to none. With this recipe set, we wanted to find unique ways of baking that don’t keep you in the kitchen too long, but will give you innovative combinations to try.

These tiny cookies were born a few years ago around Purim time when a friend of mine, Sara Frumet, was making a kiddush, and I wasn’t going to miss the opportunity to try these. Sara Frumet gave me the brilliant idea of piping the dough through a ziplock bag. These little cookies are too cute and too easy not to try!
YIELDS 6 CUPS
Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Beat together oil and sugars until creamy. Add eggs and vanilla and continue beating until thick. Combine flour, baking soda, and salt, and gradually add to sugar mixture.
Transfer the batter to a good-quality ziplock bag. Cut a tiny hole in the bottom and squeeze little dots onto the prepared baking sheet, the smaller the better. Add mini chocolate chips to the top of each mini cookie. Bake for 7–10 minutes.

Who doesn’t feel like crumbs are a hot commodity on crumb-topped anything and wishes there were more?? We’re all in the same boat, and the recipients of your mishloach manos will blissfully thank you if you send them these!
