December is a crazy month of holidays: Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa and Festivus for the rest of us. In our house, December also means birthdays. We have lots of opportunities for celebrations, and lots of opportunities for fun holiday treats.
Of course you can always go to the nearest bakery to load up on your yearly dose of butter and fat, but where’s the fun in that?

So many adorable cookies! Those gingersnaps look totally tasty!
I love Gingersnaps too, especially after freezing them.
These look so delicious! I want to try the Christmas mix and the dipped spoons with my girls!
Doesn’t that look amazing. I can’t wait to try making the dipped spoons as well.
