Hi guys!! For many people Christmas treats are one of the best things about the holiday! So, what I'm wondering about is what are your favorite holiday treats? Is it the classic sugar cookie decorated with frosting? Fudge? Egg nog? Or something more unusual that is tradition with your family?
For me, it's these Mexican Wedding Cakes my mom makes. They're these little "ball" like cookies rolled in powdered sugar. And I am also a big fan of Egg Nog!!! mmm

I'm weird in the sense that sometimes I'll drink hot chocolate, but I don't really like it O.o lol. I have to be really cold to even think about it, but sometimes I just drink hot tea instead.
I don't know if I have ever had a gingerbread cookie 
lol.

Honestly, I would guess that I wouldn't like it...but that's just because I am a really really picky eater! lol. So there's a lot of stuff I don't like! :P
I'm usually wearing long pants and a sweater, so I haven't been cold enough to get any hot chocolate! :P

usually its cold on Christmas, so its good then, and ginger bread , well i like the taste, especially when its dipped in the hot chocolate,and has icing on it (broken off from a ginger bread house), but some people don't like it.

I love chocolate chip cookies and tend to overdose on them throughout the holiday season. I can also eat pumpkin pie for breakfast, lunch and dinner loaded with tons of whipped cream. It's a close race between the two as far as which one I prefer.

I love gingerbread cookies, and I wish I could get them all year long. I miss not having them 11 months of the year. Another wonderful thing that I absolutely love are all the large variety of homemade cookies that my mother makes, from our old Danish family recipes. Yummy!!

I've actually never been a fan of pie, of any kind! It's weird...my whole family enjoys pie! lol.
I love most bread so I enjoy rolls with holiday dinner too. I like some vegetable too.
I've never had rum balls! lol
Here is a recipe for Mexican Wedding Cakes! And it comes with a pic! :)

I love the sweet potato pies my mother makes. I love the candy canes as well. I have not had one yet this season. I can't forget the love I have for the eggnog. I had that last night mixed with carrot juice. It was very nice I have to admit.

I have never had carrot juice...and no offense it probably won't be something I try any time soon :P hehe.
I've never liked Candy Canes much either, even when I was little. I like the fruity flavored ones...but I'm not a big fan of any mint candy.
