Bread pudding

We LOVE bread pudding at Christmas! This is a cranberry version, but cinnamon raisin is amazing, too. I use the recipe from the better homes and gardens cookbook. And top it with the knock off kneaders vanilla cream sauce recipe. Or vanilla ice cream. Or whip cream. Good warm or cold. Very Christmas-y. 

Garage

So this has nothing to do with food, but is there anything better than an organized garage!? This is better than donuts!

Cupcakes

Chocolate cupcakes with cream cheese orange frosting. I took them to our Young Men/Young Women Christmas dinner. And are a few myself. :)

Cheddar cheese cubes, grapes, trail mix of goldfish, mini triscuits, peanuts, and gingerbread marshmallows. 

Chewies

I should not be left in the house alone with these. Buttery graham cracker crust, topped with sweet and condensed milk, followed by chocolate chips, pecans, and coconut. Then baked to warm ooey gooey goodness.  Must eat with a glass of milk. :)

Chicken noodle soup

Nothing quite like homemade chicken noodle soup...
