Christmas Cookie Baking

 This time of year is pure madness.  Between decorating, shopping and baking there is not much time for anything else.

 Each year I bake over 1000 cookies to pass out to the elderly in our neighborhood and to the homeless in the city.

 I bake them and then put them in containers in a cold place to keep until I make up the cookie trays.

I usually make the usual family Xmas cookies but each year I add a few new ones.  These chocolate peppermint cookie sandwiches are new this year.

I am about a third of the way through my cookie baking.  Full speed ahead!
