The Holidays are here, and I have baking on my mind. The month of December takes me back to my childhood when my Mother had those wonderful tins filled with cookies like above The rum balls (we call them truffles now) seven layer bars, and every sinful treat you could think of were the magic of Christmas! My mind also goes to my two loves, "Mr. and Ms. Shop This," who both have December birthdays. So there are two special cakes to be made in my future. Time to get baking! Enjoy these yummy recipes and great gifts for bakers.

Oh Christmas Tree! What a fun project for the entire family. It isn't as hard as it looks. made from a perfect sugar cookie recipe.

Ahhh, memories! My Mom made coconut cake twice a year, at Christmas and at Easter. They were my favorites, and this cake looks so much like hers. It's a simple classic cake that is so delicious.

Said to be "insanely delicious," these candies are as pretty as can be. What a beautiful bite to have at the end of a meal or with your afternoon tea.

The baker will love whipping egg whites in these beautiful bowls. In fact they are so good looking, they most likely never put them away.

One of my favorite things is pecan pie, so these bars are right up my alley. What a nice treat.

I loved the sleek and classic look of this handcrafted walnut and corian stand. It is sturdy enough to hold as many layers as the baker wants to bake.

I make fudge as gifts every Christmas. Mine is delish, if I say so myself, but I plan on changing things up this year and try this recipe.

What a stunning addition to any dessert table. This recipe takes the cake! The peppermint decorations are meringue kisses. Sweet.

This recipe is said to be very easy, so do get the kiddies involved in smooshing the centers with their thumbprints.
