I am slowly but surely whittling down the Christmas to-do list. I spent most of today in the kitchen making goodies to share. I still have presents to wrap, but will get to that next week when Hubby is around so I can lock myself in the guest room.
Here are the goodies that I made today:
peanut butter fudge
peppermint/chocolate chip cookie bars
red velvet cake balls (2/3 down, still need to dip them in chocolate)
I might do one more batch of gingersnaps next week. I haven't decided yet. Hubby has begged me to stop making sweets for the sake of our waistlines. However, he felt a little better when I told him that these are for giving away, not for keeping.
So what's left on your Christmas to-do list?
Today I made chocolate pecan fudge, caramelized cheese puffs, chocolate mint snowball cookies, and chocolate chip bar cookies. Whew.
ReplyDeleteThe only things left on my list are fairly simple:
1)Upload pics to digital frame for my MIL
2)Wrap MIL & FIL's gifts
3)Clean the house
4)Catch up on laundry
5)Pack for our trip to Florida
Are the red velvet cake balls a Bakerella recipe? She has a recipe there that I've been meaning to make. I've never made cake pops before, so I'm a little intimidated.
ReplyDeleteHey, I made fudge last night for the first time ever - and ended up with a double batch. LOL Long story, but they turned out well.
I'd like to see those recipes!
ReplyDeleteI need to make an appetizer and dessert for a family get-together for Christmas Eve. Wrap the kid's presents.
We're going to bake Jesus a cake this year- another Christmas Eve task. (So we can eat it for breakfast Christmas morning.)
Thats about it. But you got me interested in making more goodies now!
