Oh the memories of Christmas at my Mother's! We all couldn't wait to run down the stairs, where she kept her many tins of cookies. I think the poor girl would bake every day during the month of December. She had to, we ate all of her goodies before she could wrap them as gifts. Then there were the Coconut Cakes and yes, Fruit Cakes. I loved them all. This post is for any of you that enjoy baking, has a baker on their list, or just loves a sweet treat.

A modern take on a classic butter cookie. They are taken to another level with tart lemon and fragrant thyme. Sounds like a cookie made in heaven! And don't you just love the title?

Peppermint Red Velvet Cake
Now this is Christmas on a platter to me. This bright red cake is topped with white chocolate butter cream.
Mint, Pink, & Gold Macarons
{Gluten Free}
These are certainly #ChristmasCookieGoals. This is an unusual link for me. The link doesn't take you to the recipe at first, it tells a story about just how much of a pain making macarons can be. Then once you are challenged, it links you up to a recipe. I just thought they were way to pretty not to include in this roundup.
Eggnog Sugar Cookies
Eggnog fans like myself, are going to go crazy over these easy holiday bites. And that frosting? It also features eggnog and cream cheese. Yum!
Personalized Cake Pan
I don't have one of these. Do you?
Star Mint Meringues
Cool, sweet, melt in your mouth treats. I wish that I wasn't so intimidated by a piping bag!
This recipe had me at that frosting! Could a cake or cupcake be any cuter?
Half Baked Harvest
Made especially for children, this set is stackable, lightweight, and can be used on the stovetop or in the oven. Trust me, this set will bake someone happy!

Rocket and Fox
Doing a Holiday Tea or Brunch? Serve these. Said to be delicately flavored, so you won't feel like you are eating one big Christmas cookie.
Sprinkle Bakes
Christmas Donuts
I could eat a donut any time of day or night, and on any holiday. These are especially nice for Christmas morning. Besides, I hear that Santa likes donuts better than cookies. Bake these in your own oven. The kids will just love sprinkling the sprinkles.

Candy Cane Brownie Cookies
I call this recipe semi-homemade. You start with a brownie mix for the cookies. Then top them with a white chocolate peppermint frosting that comes together quickly with the help of some Hershey Kisses. If you aren't really a baker, this recipe is for you!
Fish's Eddy Gilded Petit Four Stand
From the iconic NYC home store, this tiered stand was inspired by old hotel serverware. It's a bit Chanel-ish to me, and that is a good thing!
