Christmas Baking time!!


The Start to my Christmas Baking! All my ingredients just begging to be used, abused and baked!


First was the 6 dozen Chocolate Chip Cookies! Mmm! So good they hurt(my waistline that is!) And yes I made 6 dozen, in fact over 6 dozen since I had enough for about 5 more cookies after the 6th batch was done! lol


Gingerbread. I couldn't find my 'men' cookie cutter so I made trees, stars and bells instead. They still taste as yummy! I also added some coconut extract to the icing to give it a new 'twist' which seems to have turned out very nice!


Lime and Strawberry Spritz Cookies. Easy cookies to make! Flavored with JELLO! I used Almond extract in the icing on these since the coconut would drown out the jello flavor!
Aren't they pretty??


Billionaires! Okay Natalie informed me that these are like 100 Grand chocolate bars. Since I have never had them I will have to take her word for it! All I do know is that they are so yummy delicious! Num Yummy!


And Lastly my Peanut Butter cookies! All I had on hand was crunchy peanut butter and I ALWAYS use creamy. But wow I didn't think they would turn out this good with the crunchy! Yum YUM!

That is all I made this year as I was running low on time and on funds! If anyone would like the recipes to any of these fairly easy cookies just let me know!!
I'm off to eat me a cookie!! :D

You are a baking fool! I wouldn't know what to do with that many cookies at my house. Christmas eve we bought frozen cookies for Santa ha ha they all looked super yummy!
