I love to bake during the holiday season. It seems like everything smells and tastes better. That, and I love peppermint.
One of the treats I made for the holidays was Peppermint Ribbon Cake from Taste of Home (click the link for the recipe: Peppermint Ribbon Cake).
This cake was delicious and even the kids who weren't sure of the peppermint (what is it with kids not liking peppermint?) enjoyed this cake.
The final treat of the Christmas season was, of course, cookies. Every year I make cut out cookies, and this year I also did some bon bon cookies and a few new recipes as well (including a delicious chocolate cookie with M&M's inside and Candy Cane Kiss Cookies). Seeing these cookies still makes me smile.
Until next Christmas, farewell yummy-licious cookies!
