  1. My favorite holiday treat is not one I make. It’s the Peppermint Jo Jo’s from Trader Joe’s. They’re just perfect!!!!

  2. Homemade fudge. And it MUST have black walnuts in it. I don’t even like black walnuts, except for in this fudge!

  5. I love my grandma’s chocolate roll cookies! I’ve started making them as she’s no longer able to stand a long time in the kitchen!

  11. My favorite Christmas treat is Stollen!!! If you are interested, I am happy to send you my favorite recipe via email (I don’t have a website).
    Best, Christa

    • Christa, I would love that! I usually make it every year from a German Cookbook that I have, but I would love to give your recipe a try! Thank you so much, Sheila

  15. My favorite Christmas treat is Banket (dutch pastry) made by my aunt marcia !! She always brings is to our yearly Christmas party! I look forward to it every year

  20. COOKIES!!! Any shape, size, or color; I don’t discriminate! The more frosting the better!!! 🙂 Sprinkles too please! 🙂

  23. My favorite Chriatmas treats are Buckeyes! I never make them (no self control), but this year I’m giving in!

  27. P.S Could you do a post on the American Christmas cookie tradition. Always been interested in how it works, do you all make your favourites and then swap plates of them?

    • Well thanks for asking! I would love to do that, but I think it might have to be put on the 2015 holiday schedule, I should probably shoot for early December. Great idea! Merry Christmas!

  29. Almond banket, homemade by my mother-in-law. She taught me to make it years ago, I can hold my own when making it, but hers is the best! I get a plate for Christmas every year, labeled”Mama’s Banket”. I am told I can share only if I want…..it’s the best! Merry Christmas Sheila!

  47. My favorite Christmas treat is panettone. One of these days I’m going to do more than just slice and eat it. I really want to make bread pudding with it, but I can’t stop myself from eating it as soon as it gets through the door.

  49. My favorite Christmas treats are Dutch almond coffeecake, my husband makes every year from his grandmother’s recipe and cookie press butter cookies

  50. Hard to choose only one but maybe between my Mama’s fruitcake cookies and my sister in laws chocolate covered peanut butter balls. Yummmmm! Merry Christmas

  54. My favorite Christmas treat would be peanut butter fudge – my father was the expert at this (he did the testing with the glass of water to get the correct ‘ball’ stage) and with his brick mason hands he could whip that fudge into the creamiest, heavenliest fudge possible. Melt in my mouth! I miss him for so many reasons; this is just one of my fondest memories of a traditional Christmas treat. Hugs!

  57. My favorite Christmas treat is cracker candy! That stuff is SO addicting I shouldn’t make it any other time of the year!
