405. Christmas preparations, with cookie and cinnamon roll baking always leaves our house smelling like a bakery. These mini browned butter cookies with toffee bits were a huge hit.
Delicious almond-flavored cookies are a favorite to make every year. The recipe is from a Family Circle magazine back in the 1980's.
Slice-a-Fancy-Cookie is a recipe I found in my mother's recipes many years ago.
Pitzells are a yearly staple and we tried pistachio red peppercorn cookies, sliced, baked and iced with a salted icing.
Cinnamon Rolls from scratch. Christmas morning is never the same without them.
Someone asked, "What do you do with all those cookies...and who eats them?". I have always shared my baking every year. I package them up into cookie trays and then give them as gifts, hostess gifts or my offering to any party.
Creating cookie trays is always a delightful task and so rewarding.
And sugar cookies with royal icing...beautiful!
Rugelach cookies is a recipe from a Martha Stewart Everyday Food Magazine. It always pleases.
And Eggnog Logs are a Taste of Home Recipe.
Here are a few pictures of our Christmas Feast.
Beef Wellington was on the menu with roquefort cheese, salad and julienne carrots.
