Baked Goods

I got inspired yesterday whilst browsing through pictures and recipes and thought I'd do some Christmas baking after all. Also, a few people need a bit more for their presents, so biscuits etc make a nice top up! Anyway, I bought everything I needed to make almond macaroons, coconut macaroons, gingerbread and rocky road.  Today I managed to do all the baking things - I'll tackle the rocky road tomorrow. The macaroons worked very well - but they always do.

The gingerbread also worked well, which is very pleasing as it was my first go at gingerbread! I was inspired for the ginger bread by The decorated Cookie and her melting snowman cookies. I though gingerbread would be fine for a base, rather than sugar cookie dough! Here are a couple of the 26 Melting Snowpeople I made:


I was pretty pleased with how they worked out - husband seems to like them too - he's pretty well finished off the rejects!
