I’m late in posting because I’ve been either chasing children or baking all day. Goodies galore around here! Well not only baking but I’ve even done a little candy making. Fudge (I love fudge my grandma makes fabulous fudge) and I tried my hand at marshmallows. We’ll see if they work – I have to let them sit overnight…
Here’s a bit of the madness. Talk about making a mess…
And I’m still not done! I want to make frosted cookies with the kids this weekend plus I’m going to try out a caramel popcorn mix type recipe. Oh! And I’m making these. My friend Lori gave them to us in a goodie tray and well. We ate them all in about five. Seconds. Flat.
Do you bake lots of goodies during Christmas? What are you favorites?

Christmas time is here and I’m feeling generous. But I want you to be generous in return. ‘Tis the time for giving, right? That’s what I thought!

I want you to share with me your favorite holiday cookie recipes. Okay if you don’t have a favorite recipe, then tell me what your favorite holiday cookie is. Grandma’s specials? The sugar cookies you pick up at the grocery store? Good ol’ chocolate chip? Whatever strikes your fancy, tell us!
Up for grabs? One lucky commenter will win a Better Homes & Gardens tote bag filled with cookie goodies (recipes, coupons and even a Ziploc container pack!), a copy of Jess Michaels’ Everything Forbidden (why you ask? Well I’m silly and I bought the dang book twice! Let me tell you, it’s GOOD. If you like it hot and historical, you’ll love it) and a few other fun little freebies including a special (and so cute!) 2009 calendar card created by A Fanciful Twist. Her stuff is beautiful – definitely go check it out.
So leave me a comment (one comment per person please) and tell me what your favorite holiday cookies are. And if it’s not a cookie that’s okay too – I am rather partial to fudge myself. Specifically my grandma’s fudge. Yummm…
Share your favorite holiday goodies, share the recipe if you can, heck if you have photos, send them to me via an attachment at karen.e.erickson @ gmail.com (minus spaces – and please don’t give me a virus!). I would love to actually see what yummy goodness you enjoy.
Contest will be held Monday, December 1st through Friday December 5th. Winner will be announced (and any recipes, photos, etc. shared) on Monday December 8th. Prize will be mailed immediately to ensure winner will receive before Christmas!
Good luck and happy commenting! And eating! Can’t wait to see what you have to share i.e. become super hungry. I have a major sweet tooth.
Pssst – Come visit me over at The Sizzling Pens. I’m talking about sexy Christmas music. No really I am!
