This is Christmas to my grandma. Her holiday baking. It would not be Christmas without her cookies. This year she made about 18 different kinds. They are in their separate containers and in the attic to stay cool. Trust me I know because I brought a lot of those containers up the stairs to that attic. They will stay there until she brings them ALL down and puts them on pretty Christmas plates and brings them to the special people that LOVE her cookies every single year.
If you had walked into my grandmas kitchen last week you would have found every kind of nut, chocolate, fruit can, and cookie dough imaginable. Little sprinkles of flour and sugar in various places were pieces of evidence as well.
And this little man enjoyed some baking to.
He rolled out cookie dough.
And he did very good with the cut outs if I do say so myself...
Hands were hard at work and by the end of the day that kitchen was shot-ha!
There were candy canes, gingerbread men, christmas trees, bells...you name it -we had it...
setting them out to cool...
These would have been the snicker cookies...one of my faves...
And this frosting called for some Apricot Brandy...The lil baby that was there who will remain nameless had a taste of it....and I think 'she' liked it;)
Another wonderful tradition for my children to experience over the holidays!
one word ... YUMMO!!!!
