So:
Chocolate Spritz -- actually made 2 batches of these.
Sacher Torte Cookies -- made just a single batch of these.
Eggnog Log Cookies -- made the double batch of these.
Whipped Shortbread Cookies -- made the double batch of these.
Secret Spice Cookies-- made 2 batches of these. Excellent!
Chocolate Mint Crisps -- made just 1 batch of these, but it makes a lot.
Almond Shortbread Thumbprints -- pretty sure I made a double batch of these.
Gingerbread Men -- did not make these.
Christmas cut-out cookies -- did not make these.
Macaroon Kiss Cookies -- made just a single batch of these, but it also makes a lot.
I also added No-Bake Cookies to the list. My granddaughter doesn't like most kinds of cookies, but I knew she would eat these. I dressed them up with marshmallows and a chocolate drizzle and hope to post the recipe soon.
On the reverse side of the baking list, I listed candy and then other kitchen gifts.
I had several different kinds of candy listed, but I ended up only making three kinds:
Arlene's Easy Fudge
Heavenly Delight (2 batches)
Chocolate-Dipped Orange Slices (2 batches)
And then I made some other kitchen gifts:
Christmas Granola (2 batches) -- I just added dried cranberries and pistachios to my regular granola
Cinnamon Pretzels ( 2 batches)
Christmas Jam (7 jars)
Chocolate Mug Cake (2)
I still have to make bran muffins and hot chocolate mix; the recipient was out of town over Christmas so I didn't bother to make these before.
All in all, I feel like I accomplished a lot in the kitchen this Christmas!
You did a lot of baking! We really enjoyed the Egg Nog Logs...my niece’s Beloved most of all. He couldn’t get enough of them!
ReplyDeleteI am so happy that your family enjoyed the Eggnog Logs! Thanks for letting me know! I couldn't get away with not making them each year. So many in our family just love them.
