Done with this round of cookie baking (I’ll do some more next week for relatives I won’t see until next weekend). This is for my mom, my brother, and me.
Chocolate Chip
Soft Sugar
Pecan Tassies
Oatmeal Raisin
Snickerdoodles
Shortbread
Chocolate Peanut Butter
Cinnamon Sugar Nuts
Caramel Chocolate Pretzel Bark
Total of 25 batches plus 4 pounds of nuts. (About 85 dozen plus the bark and the nuts).
Christmas baking part two!! I made this the other day with my lovely partner, and we ate it so fast I forgot to take pictures lmao
gingerbread cake with a vanilla sauce and whipped cream!! I almost forgot to take a picture today too as you can see from the whole ass bite taken out of it lmao
Sixx was a huge help! She decorated the gingerbread cookies, and then baked the Anise Italian Wedding (b&w) cookies while I showered. She forgot to roll them smooth before baking but like I told her, they’ll taste the same! And the ones there in the middle. Bought those. Dansk does a fine job with butter cookies, why reinvent the wheel?!
I’ll let the decorations on the Xmas Bread dry and then re-wrap them in clean wrap. Then they’re ready for delivery tomorrow!
All I have to do now is the Chocolate Trifle for Xmas Dessert.
My only real Christmas tradition anymore is baking cinnamon raisin sourdough for my parents. Once grandparents can no longer host, holidays become so different.
I've started my Christmas baking. I like to make homemade treats and give them away instead of buying stuff. I've still got Anzac biscuits, caramel slice, and fruit slice left to make.
