Every year around Christmas-time I bake/make treats to give away to family, friends, and co-workers. With the husband around I try to delay when I start my preparations because if I start too early the hubs will end up eating everything and I'd have to start all over again. Usually I get around to making 3-4 different treats but I got ambitious this year and ended up with 10 holiday treats. Some usuals that I make and I started perusing through my cookbooks and on-line for some new recipes to try. Here's what I ended up with:
GINGERSNAPS - A definite must for Christmas. Nice and chewy and full of ginger/molasses flavor.
CARAMEL MACCHIATO THUMBPRINTS - Another
recipe from the Betty Crocker website. A coffee flavored cookie with gooey caramel in the middle with chocolate drizzzled on top. One of my favorites.
PEANUT BUTTER CUP COOKIES - A peanut butter cookie with a mini Reese's peanut butter cup in the middle.
COCONUT MACAROONS - A super easy recipe. Condensed milk, egg white, almond and vanilla extract, and flaked coconut.
CHOCOLATE CANDY COOKIES - M&M's mixed in with the dough. Mmmmmm.
GLAZED WALNUTS - I got this recipe from a co-worker years ago and I make it every Christmas and it's always a hit. Super easy to make - walnuts, salt, maple syrup. Yes, that's it.
WHITE CHOCOLATE BARS - These remind of blondie brownies but with more of a cakey texture.
PEANUT BUTTER FUDGE - I got
this recipe from the Food Network. And it's all made in the microwave! And it's delicious!
MOCHA MADDIES - Nice spongy texture like a madeleine but with mocha flavor. Love this one too!
GINGERSNAPS - A definite must for Christmas. Nice and chewy and full of ginger/molasses flavor.
RASPBERRY THUMBPRINT COOKIES - Got this recipe from the Betty Crocker website. Uses the cookie sugar mix as a base with raspberry jam in the middle.
CARAMEL MACCHIATO THUMBPRINTS - Another recipe from the Betty Crocker website. A coffee flavored cookie with gooey caramel in the middle with chocolate drizzzled on top. One of my favorites.
