Christmas Cookies!!

On Saturday mom and I had our Christmas Cookie Bake Off!!
We've done this for who knows how many years now. We bake a ton of different treats for the holidays and share with friends and others who have really helped us out this year.
It was a little different this year since I am now married and had to go back to Canby to my parents house.

We started at 9am...

The stage is set...



And we're off!!!


Mom starts with a Neapolitan rice krispie treat


I love making Spritz! And these poinsettias look awesome with the little drages in the middle!


Oh Christmas Trees...oh Christmas trees...


Peanut Butter Blossoms with Almond Kisses and Raspberry Drizzle


Chocolate Blossoms with melt away mints


And the classic Peanut Butter Blossoms!


These are delicious Mint Cutout cookies!


Look! I have little green men!! hee hee! ;)


Yum...here they are finished and drizzled with chocolate!!


These are my new cookies for the year! I found it in a magazine. They are called Chocolate Peppermint cookies. The chocolate cookie dough turned out really gooey and I gave up trying to fix it to follow the directions and cut out circles. So I rolled them into small balls and flattened them with a cup. :) And they turned out AWESOME!! And then of course they are dipped in chocolate and sprinkled with crushed peppermint! I ran out of white chocolate so I used regular chocolate too!


My Peppermint bark! Yum!


Mom's Fudge. It's not the crazy, rich, about-to-die-from-chocolate-overload fudge. But it's still good.


And Peanut Butter Balls.

12 hours later... we are finally done and ready to share!

I love Christmas time!!
