There Are Pandas, and Then There Are Pandas.
And this isn't either of them! The Pandas we're talking about here, are watches, not bears. And what got me thinking about them (again) was a link posted this morning by @cm.rook who pointed a few of us to the very attractive (and not terribly priced) Yema "Rallygraph" Panda which, in it's most traditional arrangement, looks like the one on the left, but can also be had in the version on the right: The model on the left is a true Panda, while the model on the right is called a reverse Panda. The reason for that distinction is clear--Panda bears, only come in the first arrangement. Now at this point, everyone should be thinking about the most well-know Panda, The Rolex Panda, which is actually a Daytona, and among Rolex Daytonas, the most famous of which is the Paul Newman Daytona, which was famous first, because it was Paul's, and second because it sold at auction for $17.8 million (US Dollars). The story of that auction is well-known so I'll only...

Edit for actual ingredients list: 2/3 cup butter or margarine 3 cups sugar 5oz Evaporated milk(goofed up above it's not condensed) 7-8oz Marshmallow fluff/creme(the latter was written in the recipe) 10-12oz of semi sweet morsels The minis work great for melting and found 10oz may possibly make them come out less dry, hard to say as I added the variable of them being minis instead.
My family treat that have been passed down is a family sugar cookie recipe that uses sour cream that I make myself because the store bought sour cream doesn't have the consistency or tang. We then bake them very thin and make them as holiday cutouts. We frost them and decorate them.
We also have a peppermint crisp cookie that involves topping with smashed peppermint candy canes. The third is a ribbon cookie that involves splitting the dough into three parts, flavoring it with chocolate, candied cherries, and poppy-seed. It is then sliced and baked.
I also have a family recipe that's something along the lines of those peanut butter cookies with a Hershey kiss on top. Though you use a mini cupcake tray instead, and while they're still warm out of the oven you use dove chocolate and press it into the center until it's about level with the top. I'm not great in the kitchen though, so I haven't tried my hands at those, and am usually so busy which is where the fudge recipe comes in handy.
