    Thanks for the memory! My mom used to make these for us as a treat

    I was about to suggest these! They are always a hit. And easy to make. And kids love to break the mints and put them on the cookies and stir them a bit. (Well, I just read this recipe. I make a basic chocolate cookie from scratch. Still very easy to do)

    I love to make baklava in a 13x9 pan, cut it into diamond shapes and place each piece in Christmas cupcake holders. They are considered by some to be labor intensive but I enjoy the process. I can place them in their cupcake holders in a sealed container and freeze them. Tasty.

    I just got this recipe this year, but they are extra good, and extra quick and easy. Here goes:
    3-ingredient cookies
    1 cake mix--any flavor; don't use one that says it is extra moist.
    2 eggs
    1/2 cup liquid oil
    Mix together with the mixer; add vanilla. Drop onto non-greased cookie sheets. Bake 14-5min. Take out and let stand until the are partially cooled
    Frost or not.
    Makes about2-2/12 dozen.
    They are delicious and take maybe 5 min. to make.
    Enjoy
    Mariah

    Eat them in by the next day or two. They get very hard after a few days. I decided after two batches that I won't make them again. Delisious but I make cookies ahead of time and then store them

    Google "Swedish Thumbprint Cookies" for a super easy delicious cookie. 3 ingredients plus jam!
    At the cookie exchange in my neighborhood, everyone brings a wrapped ornament for an exchange game. This site has game rules. http://creative-party-themes.com/orn...nge-party.html
    I would probably suggest a range of cost for the ornaments. Otherwise people may end up taking a $15 or $20 ornament and getting one from the dollar store.

    A family tradition for me has always been Snickerdoodles.
