IN THE MOOD FOR...

Yes I'm feeling it now! I'm getting into that lovely holiday season kitchen mood, and what better way to start off then on a sweet note with some winter-y cookies that spread joy and love when shared with others! Double recipe post for you all- Millionaire's Shortbread & Chocolate Crinkles. Yum! Although I'm sure many of you have already baked these before, I still love sharing my own experiences- especially that making these two cookies were a first for me!

Enjoy and let the holiday baking craze begin!

So here is some chocolatey goodness first...
Leave dough to rest overnight and roll them in icing sugar in the morning...
Smoosh them with your finger...
And bake them for 15 minutes...that's not too long of a wait!
Now the only question is- should I have them with coffee, tea or a cold glass of milk? Decisions, decisions!

And now for the fabulously entitled Millionaire's Shortbread:
Step 1- make & bake the shortbread base.
Step 2- spread the luscious caramel layer on top...and lick off any leftovers!

Step 3- After the caramel layer has cooled off, add a silky layer of chocolate...

And there you go, after much layering and cooling, here are your glorious shortbreads ready to devour! Note to self however- make shortbread layer much thinner next time...or just make caramel & chocolate layers thicker!

Happy Holiday Season Baking!!!
