   Just the smell of these cookies baking is enough to get you in the
  holiday spirit.
  
   In a large mixing bowl, cream butter with brown sugar. Beat eggs and
  extracts. In another bowl, add sifted flour and mix baking powder,
  salt, pepper and spices. Gradually add flour butter mixture, mixing
  well after each addition. Chill 2 hours or overnight.
  
   Preheat oven to 375ø. Shape dough with two teaspoons into ovals and
  place on ungreased baking sheets. Bake 8-10 minutes. Carefully remove
  cookies from baking sheets to wire racks and sprinkle with
  confectioners sugar. Cool and store in airtight containers. These
  cookies keep well and mellow with age. They're their best about 5-8
  days after baking.
