Christmas Baking

I love to bake, and I am definitely better at it than I am cooking (like by far, just ask Alain).  So, during the holidays I <3 trying new recipes that I have stalked found from different blog sights.  My favorite was these chocolate peppermint cookies.  Oh, heaven!!  I also attempted to make rolls for the first time in 14 years (bread is not my thing, I always kill the yeast).  I always have fun baking everything, and guess what's even better?  I get to partake of it all!!
 Don't they look fantastic?  (Thanks Jana for your famous recipe!)
 This was the coolest looking jello salad on the blogosphere.  Too bad mine didn't turn out so cute.  It was super-yummy though!

 LOOK!  Delicious!!!!
Sugar cookies.  The dreaded required holiday baking tradition.

I need to make a list of the cookies I made so I don't forget for next year's extravaganza:
chocolate peppermint (divine)
ginger softies (also divine)
peppermint
sugar
white chocolate cranberry
butterscotch
gooey chocolate

I think that's it :)  
(I can't believe I ate baked all those cookies.  Maybe not so many next year.  In all reality, I'll probably end up adding more to my repertoire! YUM!!)
