Christmas goodies

I haven't been blogging lately. I also haven't been baking as much this month. We went to Florida this month, but we also hosted Christmas for the first time ourselves. So I did a lot of cooking and baking this last week, anyway. For Christmas dinner, I made Betty Crocker crescent rolls and cloverleafs, sugar cookies, KAF's chocolate-pecan pie, KAF's cinnamon twists (and boysenberry twists), and America's Test Kitchen's peanut butter blossoms and mint chocolate cookies. I would have documented the pie and some of the other treats, but pre-Christmas drama overwhelmed me. And since KAF does a good job of detailing the pie, and the twists and crescents I've made before, I will show you how I made the cookies from America's Test Kitchen's holiday cookie issue.
