Missus Moonbase has been baking biscuits for Crimbo. I was her little helper.
We made slabs and rods piped through metal shapes like play doh and then baked
Chocolate and icing was added
Bikkies were sorted into piles
A dozen or so were each bagged up
A hand made Xmas decoration was the finishing touch
They were finally grouped in a display box for sale to workmates
Bon appetit!
Are you baking this Christmas?
As much as I enjoy cooking,baking has always been beyond my grasp.I recently read a recipe for simple comfections made with flour,sugar,butter and choice of peanut butter or marzipan coated with chocolate.I might give those a whirl.Those cookies look delicious.The chocolate drizzle makes them look extra special.
ReplyDeleteThanks Bri. Your marzipan confections sound yummy! I must admit if I was over there in NJ I would ditch baking and go to the nearest kenoli bakers! I love those things!
DeleteJust learning now that a snow storm is headed my way.3 to 5 inches by tomorrow afternoon.Not a severe amount but definitely not expected as we've had a very mild Autumn so far.
Deletebatten down the hatches Brian, get the Southern Comfort out and some old monster flicks!
DeleteWell done to Missus Moonbase and her little helper/sampler. Those decorative crimbo cookies look delicious! So, any future retirement plans to open The Moonbase Bakery, Woodsy :)
ReplyDeleteYes, I wont be baking this year. My talents lie in eating these tasty things, rather than making them. Nonetheless, I'm listed as essential kitchen personnel in our house - I'm The Washer-Upper :)
Ta Tone. Yes, I too am a tester of bikkies and a licker of spoons. There was much testing and licking the other night I can tell you! ha ha
