My all time favorite is my sugar cookies!

I think I'll have some now with a glass of milk!

My family has more desserts than we do food usually.

We have:
Chocolate pudding pie
brownies
cheesecake
cookies (various kinds)
And this year we are also having:
Buche de Noel
and a German Chocolate Cake

Bruce's family has Lefse, it has become tradition the past few years. They always had it growing up and now his mom has brought it back.

I cannot wait for Christmas (and Xmas Eve) this year!!!

I used to bake a lot for Christmas but I don't do this much any more. I will be going to my parents on Friday to do a little baking though. I'll be making pecan balls. Here are just a few of the different types of cookies that I've made in the past.

Christmas Cut Out Cookies
Gingerbread Cookies
Pecan Balls

Thumb print cookies but ONLY the ones my friend Gail makes. I'm not big on cookies or dessert of any kind, really. I have a few faves but nothing major. Her thumb print cookies, though. Yum! She's an RN and I told her if she ever decided to open a bakery, she could clean up! Everything she's ever made has been luscious, even chocolate chip cookies which don't impress me at all.

Oh my reading all these makes me hungry and i want the RECIPES now, i used to bake xmas muffins,shaped decorated shortbread cookies and last year i made my first ever cheesecake and it was to die for, it is called a white chocolate malteser cheesecake,i can highly recommend this, it is divine, i did not decorate it, but i will next time with chocolate mousse rosettes and cherries and shards of chocolate.

I also have to try my weight watchers truffles one of these days.

This year is very low key, we are not doing much of a xmas really, so no home baking ,just be hubby and me and our girl.
