My Favorite Christmas Tradition

Dec 11, 2018 0 comments
Happy Tuesday! Your Blogmas post is coming up at noon today but I wanted to share another love of mine with you during the holiday season.



While I do mostly fashion on this blog I am a person of many faces sans makeup lol. If you have been following me for a while you know I’m a total foodie!

I love to cook and I especially love to bake. Muffins, cakes, cookies, pies. You name it I bake it. Or at least I attempt to. Lol.

During Christmas time I do a lot of baking. It’s a passion of mine. It started because I love baked goods but I'm allergic to nuts and so in order for me to enjoy the recipes of the season I had to bake my own. And like I do with my closet I share what I bake too, with my friends and loved ones. I’m a sharer in case you hadn’t noticed.

I start baking all my Christmas treats this week, to my family's delight, so I’m getting my cookie menu together. I usually make your standard sugar cookie covered in frosting and sprinkles (my fav), snickerdoodles and gingerbread. I also make Rice Krispy Treats which aren't really a cookie but I love them all the same. Then I make what I call a "specialty" cookie. 

The problem is, I haven’t decided what specialty cookie to make. In the past I have done lemon, apple pie cookies and some others but...

There are so many great recipes out there. It's hard to choose.

I have a couple of ideas on my recipes board on Pinterest. I’m leaning towards something eggnogy. I know that’s so not a word. Lol.

However, lately the Italian Christmas Cookie is looking like a good challenger to that.




In the comments share with me some of your favorite cookie recipes for me to try this Christmas. Also, let me know some of your favorite Christmas traditions.

Happy Baking!
&
Happy Shopping!
