Snickerdoodle

My grandmother use to make Divinity fudge and I loved it but I have not had it since I was a kid. I don't make any treats over the holidays but I do get to try different ones when I go visit other people.

We don't have much around here right now. Roomie and I are both trying to lose weight, so that is a good thing!

What's Divinity? I love some of the baked goods this time of year. I think almond cookies are my favorite. I like snickerdoodles.. I've made them once or twice.. I added toffee bits to mine, delish!!

I make a few things here, mostly no-bake things, fudge, haystack cookies with the Chinese noodles but I do bake a nice thumb print cookie with a bit of jam in your thumb print.

I had a snickerdoodle latte today at a small, local coffee shop near my work! It was delicious!

Is Divinity the ones that melt in your mouth? If so, then I think I like them, if not then I don't really know what they are. (Caught a few comments and see that it's a fudge. I don't think I've had that one). We try to stay away from too many treats in our house. My sister-in-law has plenty at her home when we arrive on either Christmas or other holidays. I'm wanting to break the sugar habit, and I met someone yesterday that has been off sugar since September and has no more pain in her joints or other areas on her body. She was told she had an auto-immune disease when she was having unaccounted for pain, but now she's pain-free. I know I did better the two times I stayed off sugar in the past and would like to get there again. Not sure when I'll start though.

@AmbiePam This is the first time I am hearing about snickernoodles.It must be nice to receive sweets from your dad

Snickerdoodle cookies: never had them before.

Right now, all we have is homemade cinnamon-raisin bread. It has the white icing and it's so good! I usually bake a lot during Christmas but I'm not sure if I am going to this year.

I usually make some, pine bark candy is one we love here and peanut brittle but I am not very good at it. I do not give up, I keep making it and hope it gets better each year.

I love Divinity. My grandmother used to make it. I've never heard of tea rings. What are they?

I haven't heard of any of these cookies or whatever they are It is nice that you get the benefit of some of your Dad's gifts.

I used to make Snickerdoodles every year back when I made a lot of Christmas cookies. They were always a big hit with friends and family.

Isn't that the sad case? When it costs more to make things at home? Usually the opposite is true. Happily not much baked goods around here though my mom will almost certainly makes some delicious items

Divinity Fudge never made it. No fudge lovers in my family. We do a lot of baking, as my daughter and I bake for the library parties. Also bake for many of our friends and family. Happy holidays

Snickerdoodles... I have to be careful with those cookies because I'm the only one in the family who loves them!! They are awesome!!

You are so lucky having holiday goodies. Not everyone has those delicious foods I thought.
