And it's less than a week til Christmas...

Shopping has just been finished up.

Baking must commence:

Spiced Raisin Mini Muffins for Christmas morning

Cookies:
Holly Crackles (made like Rice Krispies treats but with cornflakes, colored green with cinnamon red hot "berries")
Candy Canes (this is a request; it's work and I never get them just right but I can try again)
Chocolate Crinkles (one of the traditional ones from my childhood)
The Neiman-Marcus Cookie (fancy schmancy chocolate chip cookies, again a request)

Also making French Chocolate Bark. I did a small batch of this for the Boat parade last week, and it worked well. I plan on giving a couple portions of it as gifts, too. It's an Ina Garten recipe, saw it on her show. LOL
