my "infamous" homemade marshmallows....everyone loves them..so much better than the store-bought kind..
My favorite christmas cookies to make are peanut butter with a kiss in the center.
My favorite holiday "goodness" are my mom's butter cookies with homemade powdered sugar & cream frosting-yummy! I am a mom now and try as I might-I just can't make them as good as she can. Luckily, we will be traveling 450 miles to see her and eat a few of those delish' butter cookies-mmmm good!
My mom's chocolate haystacks!!! And of course I don't have the recipe 'cause my mom makes them for me! heehee
This is a slushy drink that the kids go crazy for! When it's time for the holidays, this is the first thing my boys ask about.

Juice of 1 lemon
2 qts. pineapple juice
2 qts. cranberry juice
2 T. almond extract
Freeze. When ready to serve add 4 qts. of gingerale.
my favorite holiday treat is banana bread. not any banana bread....but a recipie i discovered 2 years ago. it's the most moist, delicious recipie. and the most mouth waterin part is the yummy fresh orange juice glaze you pour over the top as it's hot out of the oven. my husband and kids ate 2 loafs in one day last week. mmmmmmm!
my second favorite is carmel popcorn....usually make up 10 batches for all the neighbor treats. super easy, very tasty and really sticky!
4 bags of butter lovers popcorn (popped)
heat on stove top:
1 stick butter
1 pound (1/2 bag) brown sugar
1 cup karo syrup
once the sugar is dissolved and it begins to boil, remove from heat and add 1 can of sweet n condensed milk. pretty caramel color! dump over poped corn and stir till every puff is covered. super yummy hot, just as delish cooled!
tis the season!
I make this caramel pecan cheesecake that is soooo wonderful. I tried to find the recipe, and I can't find it anywhere. :(
That's easy. It would be Nanaimo bars. So yummy!

my favorite are those pretzel hugs like becky higgens shared the recipe for - yummy!
My mom makes these yummy cookies at Christmas only because they're so fussy. They like a light shortbread cookie dipped in sugar, and you put 2 of them together with some Christmas-colored frosting to make a cookie sandwish. Yummmmmy!
My favorite is mixed nut brittle. That is a must around our house during the holiday season!
There are some yummy looking treats posted :)
Our favorite treat for Christmas is Coconut Bonbons! My grandmother would make them when I was young and I have made them every year for my family!
My favorite holiday treat is peppermint ice cream. I look forward to it every December!
I think my favorite Holiday treat...hmm cant think of anything but the norm I love cookies, cakes ...okay I love everything but coconut stuff...lol
I'm not a great or even good baker baker, so I enjoy simple desserts like ice cream with toppings on top like crushed candy or coconut. I have made this before with much success though...

I am not a baker, but my mom used to make the best cookies at Christmas and always froze a lot of them. My favorite with date nut cookies and orange slice cookies. I could eat both frozen too!!
My favorite treat is peppermint bark and gingerbread, but I don't know make either myself.
My favorite thing is decorating sugar cookies.
Ours here is Fantasy Fudge, very easy recipe, it is on the marshmallow Cream jar.. Yummy!
My fav to make is FUDGE!! Yummo...my recipe is on the cover of the kraft marshmallow cream jar.
One of our family favorites are "Hello Dolly Bars" (at least this is what my mom always called them;)).
Very easy and scrumptious!!
Use a 13x9 pan, greased; bake at 350 for about 30-40 minutes or until slightly brown on top.
Layer the following ingredients, bottom to top.
Make a graham cracker crust and this will be the 1st layer in the pan. Then add about 1 1/2 cups coconut. Next 1 bag of chocolate chips, then 1 cup of chopped pecans. The final layer is 1 can of sweetened condensed milk poured over the top of all the layers.

My favorite treat? Humm...too many options. If I have to choose it's homemade english toffee.
I LOVE hot chocolate drinks with marshmallows or better yet! just take the marshmallow and put them in the fire... yummmmmmmmmm
Fudge is a great christmas treat! - especially made to my mother's secret recipe. Love the look of your glitzy designs. Would love to win but do not know if I am still in the timescale.
Oh wow! Amazing stocking! One of my favorite treats is my grandmother's caramels. She would make them every year and send them in the box with our presents. She died a little over 6 years ago and I decided last year, that someone needs to keep this tradition going. So I got the recipe from my aunt and made them last and again this year. Homemade caramels are so much better than store bought! And it is always so wonderful to have a tradition that continues on.
My favorite recipe is an old country dish the name of which is lost to me, but I call them cottage crepes. This recipe comes down to me from my mother and grandmother and I am not sure how far back it goes from there. First you make a couple dozen normal crepes. Then mix dry curds with a couple of eggs and some salt and pepper. Roll this mixture into the crepes, place in a large casserole, pour whipping cream over the top and bake. This is always the first dish to be empty on the Christmas table.
I love the chex mix puppy chow! You know the one with the corn chex powdered sugar and melted chocolate chips. Even making a huge batch, my family can finish this off in no time!
Thanks!

Okay, mine isn't a traditional holiday "treat". My favorite treat is homemade tamales. My family only makes them once a year, because it is such a long process. We make enough for Christmas and New Years. They aren't a sweet treat, but it a treat since it is the only time of year I get some. As for the recipe, I believe you have to part of the Ramirez family for a long time to get it. Seeing how I've been in the family my whole life and all I know is how to make the masa and spread it on the corn husks.
What better way to celebrate the Holidays!
When I think of Glitz Designs I think something really rich tasting and super easy!

I grew up in the day when everything was Homemade....My favorite was always my Grandma's Vanilla Fudge...It's still my favorite....Here is the recipe
Don't you love getting the Family secret recipe?
Grandma's Yummy Vanilla Fudge
2 TBSP unsalted Butter (not margarine)
3 C sugar
1/4 C corn syrup (karo)
1/2 t. salt
1 C whipping cream (half and half works if your on a diet, cuts to calories by a little)
1/2 C whole milk
2 T vanilla (use a good vanilla)
1 C chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans)
Place all ingredients in a 2 1/2 quart saucepan. Cook over medium heat until mixture boils, stirring constantly.
Continue cokking, stirring occasionally, until it reachs a soft ball stage (238) on the candy thermometer, or a small amount dropped in (very) cold water forms a soft ball.
Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla. Cool to luke warm (110) on the candy thermometer, beat until the fudge thickens and looses it's gloss. Fold in nuts and pour in a buttered 8 x 8 pan. When set cut into squares and enjoy!
It seems like alot of work, but it is SO worth it!!!!
