Christmas Sweets

With Christmas rapidly approaching (can not believe it's a few days away!), I thought I would make a post with the treats I am making for Christmas. I've made a couple already, but plan on making the rest today and tomorrow.

All recipes can be found under the picture.

Here are the ones I've already made....

(hence the non-professional picture haha)

{Double Chocolate Peppermint Cookie}

I'll be honest, they are a bit of a pain to make.

But they are so worth it.

{Peppermint Christmas Cookies}

So yummy! Though I will say, I did not add the peppermint extract and am not missing it. I also sprinkled the tops with a bit of sugar which added a nice touch.

{Rolo Pretzels and Christmas Pretzels}

I've made the ones with M&M's for the past several years but the ones with Rolos are a first. Both are very yummy and easy to make. :)
The recipe under the picture is for the Rolos but it's the same thing for the Christmas pretzels.
I find it easier to unwrap the candy before I start since it can take a while. I also put the M&M's and the pecans in a separate bowl so it'll be faster to put them on after you take them out of the oven.
I also refrigerate them to harden the chocolate faster.

And here is what I have yet to make, but I'm sure will be very good!

{Deep Dark Chocolate Cookies}

{Gingerbread Cheesecake Bites}

Hope you have a very Merry Christmas! :)

Love to you.
