Christmas Baking 2021


422.  Each year, in December, I plan and prepare and bake cookies.  It is a family tradition.  Not only do we enjoy the cookies but I gift them to family, friends and co-workers.Often the recipes are old favorites but I like to try new recipes each year.

This year Ooey Gooey Lemon Cookies, Red Velvet Sandwich Cookies, Fruit Nut Bread Cups, Mushroom Cookies (find recipe here Mushroom Cookies) made with almond flour and almond extract.

Orange Cranberry Drop Cookies
Peppermint Thin Mint, Peanut Butter Blossoms,
and, so much more.  Final count was 18 varieties.
"Baking cookies is comforting, and cookies are the sweetest little bit of comfort food.  They are very bite-sized and personal."
~Sandra Lee
