More Holiday Yummies


Since I didn't make gingerbread cookies, I decided to just make straight gingerbread. I don't think I have ever had that. I baked it in my bundt pan and then put some cream cheese frosting on it. I thought it was quite yummy. And easier than cut-out cookies for sure!!



So, gingerbread cookies are not the biggest hit at my house. I went out on a limb and tried to make my very own cookie recipe. It had a background of pumpkin in it. To give it some holiday flavor and color. I think they turned out okay. They just needed a little more pumpkin and cinnamon- I think. Sorry, if you were the family I tested these out on. I didn't hear anything back, so maybe they hated them. Anyway, it was fun to try and do something of my very own.

Holiday Yummies!

I haven't done these in years. but they are one of my favorite things that I remember from being young. I know we didn't do them every year, but I love them.

Chocolate-covered Mini-Candy-canes!!


I also did some pretzels while I had the covering stuff out. Quite yummy too. I'm sad to say, they are almost gone.


Darn it! I forgot to take any pictures of fudge. I made my first batch and I'm sure I'll make at least one more batch before Christmas. Maybe I'll add one later.
