What a great way to start this blog! With Christmas baking! Beginning December 12th, I'll be sharing with you 12 different baking topics that revolve around this festive holiday season. I'm calling it "The Twelve Days of Christmas Baking". I will include everything from recipes to gifts. I don't know about you, but Christmas just isn't the same without baking Christmas cookies, and I'll be sure to include some of my favorites for you!
This weekend is my "Cookie Kickoff." I'm hosting a cookie exchange on Sunday afternoon for the ladies in my neighborhood. But the night before that, a friend of mine is having a family cookie exchange. I'm baking 100 cookies for that get-together! Add that to the 77 cookies I need for my cookie exchange the next day, and I start thinking, "What did I get myself into?!" Seriously, though, I love cookies, so the more the merrier!
To start off this Christmas baking bonanza, I made Christmas M&M cookies. These little goodies went to my daughter's dance Open House and were gobbled up faster than you can say, "Nutcracker."
All I did was use my "go to" Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe and substitute M&Ms for the chocolate chips. Super easy (and super cute, too)!
