Tomorrow I'm having an Open House for my business -- so far I think three actual customers are going to be coming, as well as Iris, who is coming out of loyalty and love of cookies.
I'm making fudge and snickerdoodles, and will probably make another kind of bar cookie (trying to decide between raspberry and chocolate revel.) I found myself calling my mother for her recommendations, and she rattled off a dizzying list of cookies and bars on her standard bake list.
Of course, my mom always has a could of hundred people around during the Christmas season, and she's been doing this for a bit longer than I have. But it made me realize that I don't have much on my Must Bake for Christmas List.
I always make snickerdoodles and fudge, and I will probably add peppermint bark, chocolate chip cookies made with red and green M&Ms, and those peanut blossom cookies with the chocolate star in the middle. When Hambet is older I will probably add rolled and decorated sugar cookies.
So how about you? What's on your yearly to-bake list?
