Holiday baking 2023
Dec. 4th, 2023 11:07 am Not feelin it this year. December snuck up on me. This year was endless and also somehow instantaneous. Time is kinda fucked for me these days.
Anyhoo, I'm going with half 'standards' and half 'new'
The usual hits:
Big Soft Gingerbread Cookies
Mini Jack Daniels Pies
Peanut Butter Fudge
new:
Oatmeal cookie bars (exact recipe to be decided, if I use raisins I want to use golden raisins not regular because they're prettier)
Peppermint Bark Brownies (probably Ghiradelli brownie mix with doctored storebought frosting & crushed peppermint candy sprinkled on top)
Spumoni (Italian Tricolor - Chocolate, Cherry & Pistachio) sugar cookies (exact recipe tbd)
Usually at least one of my 'new' recipes is a FAIL [I'm betting the Spumoni] but I think 5 baked items and a few storebought holiday chocolates , etc. will make a nice holiday assortment for friends, neighbors, and Aunt L & Uncle B.
