Its weird, but I am back again today..
It has become a tradition to bake cookies for christmas and this has been the second year in a row that I got to bake with my mom using my kitchen aid mixer as talked about here.
I talked about baking briefly in this post earlier today.
This year I picked a few recipes on pininterest and went at it ALL DAY!
1. Sugar cookie pinwheels
1. Sugar cookie pinwheels
With the recipe found here: ouritaliankitchen.blogspot.com
(This recipe did not work for me for whatever reason and I used this sugar cookie recipe instead, split the batches in two, froze for 1 hour, rolled using wax paper than rolled in sprinkles, froze for another hour than thinly sliced and baked accoring to the sugar cookie recipe)
With the recipe found here:sixsistersstuff.blogspot.com
(This recipe I didn't personally like. The dough was very sticky and we put in the refrigerator for 2 hours which helped but I did not like the texture with the end product)
3. Pecan Pie truffles
With the recipe found here: growingupveg.blogspot.com
These are OMG delicious and super super easy.
I used walnuts (because pecans are freakin expensive) but they still turned out AMA-ZING!
* side not: these were the favorite of the bunch this year*
4. OREO Truffles
With the recipe found here: chef-n-training.blogspot.com
These were delicious as well and super duper easy. 3 ingredients and no bake.
5. MY FAVE.. Ginger Spice cookies
You already know these are my favorite from this post
Recipe found here: http://www.ourbestbites.com/2008/10/ginger-spice-cookies/
