Christmas Time is here!!!

Well, so much for making everyone sewn gifts. My baking skills will be at the fore this year. I am making a lovely plate of sweets for everyone on my list.  Ginger snaps, Moravian wafers (a very spicy ginger snap), medieval ginger bread, Lubkuchen (German Honey cookies) and Chocolate Rum Truffles.  I will be snapping pics of each as they are completed this week. Up today are the ginger snaps. They are the first out of the oven.  This is what 6 dozen cookies look like. Not so much, huh. The total recipe makes 12 dozen so I got two plates out of it.

 I am waiting for the wafers, the truffles and the medieval ginger bread to set up right now so I may have another post later.  The medieval gingerbread is looking pretty good for a first attempt. It tastes great but I have to wait for it to cool a bit before I try to roll it into balls.
