Cookie Dough Update

I have started making the cookie dough for my Holiday Cookie Trays. 

Two out of five cookies complete...



Snickerdoodles











Chocolate Chip






I was in the baking mood so I decided to make Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins to enjoy now...
So yummy!









The cookie dough is now waiting in the freezer, ready to be baked on Christmas Eve.  I have to say though, my Snickerdoodle stash has been slowly disappearing. The "Cookie Monster" I live with, my boyfriend, has been slowly tapping into them.  (They happen to be his favorite.)  I'll have to make another batch because I am now down to 8 Snickerdoodles!  He's hit the Chocolate Chip stash but not as much as his faves.

Up next... Outrageous Chocolate Cookies & Old Fashioned Sugar Cookies!

Holiday Treats

So I've narrowed down the homemade holiday treats for this year. Each year I bake cookies and other treats to give to family and friends. This year I'm filling cookie tins for my family and possibly making small treat bags for friends and co-workers.

This is my list....

• Old Fashioned Sugar Cookies
• Snickerdoodles
• Soft & Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies
• Outrageous Chocolate Cookies
• Chocolate Covered Marshmallow Cookies

• Crispy Chocolate Marshmallow Treats
• Double Chocolate Brownies

• Homemade Hot Cocoa Mix (in monogrammed jars, might add a small bag of mini marshmallow)

If I still need to fill the cookie tins I might make Mudslide cookies and/or Double Chocolate Brownie Bites.

Now that the list has been narrowed down it's time to start making cookie dough! I'll post pictures as they're made.
