Up this weekend: The home stretch for baking.
  • Another double batch of biscotti
  • Gingerbread cookies,
  • Chocolate bark
  • Truffles
  • Grand Marnier nuts and Amaretto nuts
  • Chile lime pistachio and peanuts
  • Frost the sugar and gingerbread cookies
  • Put chocolate on the biscotti
It sound like a lot, but I can have the sugared nuts going while I make or frost the cookies. The truffles are the big time sink. We'll see how far I get on those...it may be that I only do bark this year!
