Christmas Baking
Good morning! We have baked our cookies and treats and many are on their way to family right now. The rest are in our freezer for later this week.
~Gingersnaps~
~Whipped Shortbread~
We also tried several new recipes this year and all were a big hit...
~Peanut Butter Chocolate Truffles~
More peanut butter truffles rolled in red sprinkles. The girls and I renamed them Sugar Plum Tuffles!
~Chocolate Snowballs~
~Brown Sugar Almonds~ They are so good!
There are links for the gingersnap and shortbread recipes. Scroll down on my main blog page for the other recipes. Are you busy with last minute Christmas preparations? I'm off to wrap presents!
YUM! gonna try the Truffles and Sugared Almonds!
ReplyDeletehmmm... yumm yumm yumm..... I like all... and my mouth is watering.
ReplyDeleteThese all look so good. I'm gaining weight just thinking about eating them. The sugared almond recipe is something like what we do with pecans.
ReplyDeleteEverything looks wonderful. Have a good week and a Merry Christmas to you.

ReplyDeleteWOW! It's all I can say...

ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful Christmas!
I should finish wrapping today. We will see though. I have some last minute running this morning....Merry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteYour cookies and treats look great!
These all look so good! Thank you for the recipes as well! Have a wonderful holiday with family and friends!!
ReplyDeleteKelli everything looks so yummy, I am going to make your gingersnaps recipe this afternoon with the children after we come from finishing up our christmas shopping, have a merry christmas and a happy new year.
ReplyDeleteEverything looks quite tasty!! I love baking up a storm - but then the goodies must get out of the house! LOL!!
ReplyDeleteI've got a ton of presents to wrap and some baking to do! Merry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteYummy! We made gingersnaps this year too. Love the way they fill up the kitchen while they are baking.
ReplyDeleteThanks for all the yummy ideas!!!
ReplyDeleteThey all look amazing!!!
ReplyDeleteKelli~
ReplyDeleteI have the same blog post on my blog! Only yours looks so professional and fabulous :) You are so talented. Your treats look amazing and so delicious.
Do you still publish 'Seasonal Delights?'
Love the way you packaged your goodies- if I were your neighbor- I would love to recieve your treats.
I still have a lot of preparation to do yet. But it is exciting.
Merry Christmas Kelli~
God bless!

ReplyDeleteCan my name be added to the list of recipients? YUM, YUM!
ReplyDeleteWow, those all look great! Thanks for the recipes. I an going to try the sugar plum truffles. I am done with all my last minute stuff so now I have time to bake:)
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice array of cookies! Mine are similar, but different than yours and I am trying a few new ones this year. I love the little balls ones-so easy to make.
ReplyDeleteI posted a Peanut Butter Pinwheel on my blog-one of my favorites that I use to make and just found the recipe again!
That is a lot of cookies and they all look good.
ReplyDeleteyum yum yum! they all look scrumptious!
ReplyDeleteYUMMY! I have been meaning to tell you I love your blog banner for the holidays. Debbi
ReplyDeleteWow you have been busy with baking and loading all the photos and recipes. I'm quite hungry now! Can't wait to spend more time looking at the recipes and trying a few myself.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful!! I'll take a sugar plum truffle please :-p Have a blessed Christmas!
ReplyDeleteAll your recipes look so scrumptious! I wish I was going to be home to make some of them. Maybe when I return from my Mom's.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas!
I think Sugar Plum Truffles is a perfect name--their rightful name. Don't things like that just give you a thrill?
ReplyDeleteHow yummy! I am going to start my Christmas baking this afternoon. We are snowed in so I thought why not! Yours looks fabulous!
ReplyDeleteEverything looks yummy and my time to get myself out there to the kitchen and make some cookies or a batch of candy is evaporating as I type.

ReplyDeleteYou clever girl Kelli - those look fabulous. I'm going to try the shortbread recipe out as Tam wants me to make a little hamper for her boyfriend's parents to enjoy when they come down to Wales on holiday this weekend. Your ginger cookies look just like the ones I make, which are SO GOOD. Wishing you a wonderful Christmas and everything you would wish yourself for 2009. Jennie xx
ReplyDeleteAs usual, everything looks as if it is in a home magazine! You are awesome!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to try the brown sugar almonds! Such a nice break from the cookie rut!

Hi Kelly -
ReplyDeleteJust stopping by to wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas! May all your dreams come true in the new year.
Hmmm...I could have sworn I left a comment here yesterday. Maybe it was on another post. I did want you to know I love the presentation of your baked treats, and I'm certain they're delicious!
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Oh my Kelly! You could start a bakery....it looks so professional and all so yummy! I want to try that shortbread!
ReplyDeleteThese look so good!! Too good!!! Ahhh. We normally have different seasonal treats, but I will have to try yours.
ReplyDeleteAll your goodies look delicious.
ReplyDeleteEspeciall the chocolate truffles.
MMMNN!
I love eating all the yummy baked goodies. Fudge is one of my favs.
Mm, mm, Can I come over to your house??
ReplyDeleteEverything looks so good. I didn't get much baking done this year (I only baked gingersnaps, a favorite). I may have to do some 'after holiday' baking.
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Janice
We just made our traditional Rice Krispy bars and brownies. And barely had time to do those! Lol!
