Every year my sister, mother and myself spend a whole day baking for the Christmas season. This year we added two new people as our helpers our significant others Frank and Joey. They ended up helping out more than I thought they we're able to, I honestly thought these two were incompetent.
We normally make 15 different types of cookies, this year however my mother decided it would be a brilliant idea to make 20 different kinds of cookies.
On our list:1. peanut butter cup cookies
2. mint chocolate
3. reindeer cookies
4. white chocolate macadamia nut
5. chocolate crinkles
6. turtles
7. mars bar rice crispies
8. skor bars
9. peanut butter blossoms
10. penut butter balls
11. white chocolate torrone
12. milk chocolate torrone
13. cake pops
14. chocolate christmas trees
15. old people cookies? i'm not quite sure exactly what they are....
In all honesty we made way too many for me to remember, it was quite the long day that started at 9 am and didn't end till 6 pm of non-stop baking. Every year I honestly wonder why we put ourselves through all that torture by baking so much in one day and ruining something we truly love to do. Then when I see the smiles on friends & families members faces I remember why we do it every year and hate it for quite sometime after that. Although having new helpers did help it to be a much lighter load on the three "chiefs" of our kitchen.
