• Gluten Free Peanut Butter Blossoms

  I’ve been sick most of this Christmas season so I have not made ANY Christmas cookies.  Okay, I’ll take it back.  We made peanut butter blossoms and then we ate them. I decided to update my peanut butter blossom recipes using gluten free flour. I noticed that the dough does not stand up as well […]

• Pretzel chocolate chip cookies

• Santa’s Whiskers – Christmas Making and Baking

  

  I made these many years ago.  This year I decided to make them once again. Things you need to remember – Don’t use press and seal plastic wrap when you wrap the cookie dough in plastic wrap.  That made it difficult to make a roll.  The coconut will make a mess.  Just keep the broom […]

  I’ve been making mock thin mints for years. This is one of the Imaginative One’s favorite Christmas treats. I didn’t have any pictures for the original post, so I added one once I made a small batch of them today.

• Make Ahead Chocolate Chip Cookie Mix

  We love chocolate chip cookies around here.  However, I’m not always in the mood to mix up a full batch of cookies.  Make ahead chocolate chip cookie mix to the rescue.  The dry ingredients are already mixed up, so all you need to do is add the wet ingredients and mix. Hint:  Use an electric […]

• Swedish Oatmeal Cookies

  I’ve previously mentioned how I like Joanna Fluke’s Hannah Swenson books.  I’m rereading some of the books in the series.  As I was reading Key Lime Murder, she included this recipe.  I was instantly intrigued.  I’ve made other oatmeal cookies that included chocolate chips and M&M’s.  This year I wanted something simple.  This cookie fits the […]

• Christmas Baking

  Every year I bake and create Christmas goodies.  My grandma used to do the same thing and share it with family and friends.  I have the bench she used to pile the containers onto and the Kitchen aid mixer she used to whip up the batches of delicious cookies.  Once I was an adult living […]
