My favorite candy is peanut butter fudge and favorite cookie is Oreo cookie balls. I make these every year plus a few other sweets.

Just wondering what everyone else likes. I might add something different to the line up this year.

and Merry Christmas!

Ina Garten's ginger cookies - extra crystalized ginger.

Dipped in cinnamon cream cheese dip if you're feeling extra fat.

The wife (MHNBPF) makes killer divinity.

We have made pfeffernusse for years, but haven't in the last few. Maybe now that we are retired we will do them again this year.

My wife's grandmother, God rest her soul, made these amazing fruit cake cookies. Wife still makes them and I still love them and get a case of the feels every time I eat one.

Hello Dollies is my favorite.

Old recipe, pretty simple. Name Brand ingredients really do make a difference too.

Graham cracker crumbs, butter, chopped pecans, chocolate chips, coconut flakes and sweetened condensed milk poured over, then baked to bring it all together.

I make lemon crinkle cookies every year for Christmas with the Meyer lemons from my tree. They're always a hit with our families.
