The Heart of Holiday Cookies: Crunchy, Sweet, and Passed Down

This week on Hand Me Down Recipes, Kathie is joined by Erin from The Speckled Palate for a deliciously nostalgic conversation all about potato chip cookies—a unique family recipe that’s salty, sweet, and full of love.

Together they talk about the joy of baking during the holidays, the beauty of handed-down recipes, and how one special cookie made its way from grandma’s kitchen to a wedding in Portugal (and yes, it survived the flight!).

If you’ve ever baked with your heart, shared cookies as a love language, or wondered if a cookie could hold a memory—this cozy episode is for you.

In this episode:

• Erin’s grandmother’s famous potato chip cookie recipe
• Why cookie tables at weddings matter
• Tips for freezing, shipping, and gifting holiday cookies
• The Sweetest Season cookie exchange
• Salty-sweet combos and baking with connection

Grab a warm drink, settle in, and join us as we celebrate the simple magic of holiday baking.
