Cookie Class

Last night my hubby blessed me by coming home from work early so I could attend a 3 hour baking class where my friend, Melissa, is the owner/pastry chef. I L-O-V-E to bake and have wanted to do this for a long time. Last night's class was on Christmas Cookies... we made 3 types - the infamous sugar cookie, peppermint cookie (they look like candy canes) and sugar plums. We made all the dough, decorated like pros and of course sampled the fruit of our labor. It was great! I learned so much! And can I just say, that I love icing cookies!!

I had planned on showing pictures, but we've pretty much devoured what I brought home. Nothing made me happier then when Chris said to me today "thanks mom for making these yummy cookies - they are just so delicious!" I'll be sure to snap some shots when I make another batch for Christmas... I'll have to do it quickly before they disappear again!
