Attention holiday bakers! Today’s Sunday Supper event is all about cookies. I was really excited as soon as I saw the notification. I have been known to bake a few cookies for Christmas. Well, that and a whole bunch of other treats. I know I my oven gets a real workout during the holidays. This year I wanted to try something new and I chose Christmas Crunchies cookies.
It is always fun to try new recipes. There are favorites like Carrot Cake and Rocky Road that I make every year. The new stuff keeps the routine from getting old. I like to surprise my family and friends with something different. These cookies have already been given to several friends and they were a hit. Now I have another recipe to add to my annual holiday cookie baking list.
