What’s for Dinner Tonight?

[LoveDaisy]

Peppermint meltaways

Tips:
I don’t use the food coloring
I make the dough then roll into inch balls then chill for at least an hour.
Make sure your cookie sheets are cold. I put my cookie sheets in the freezer in between batches.

Went to Macy’s Herald Sq for some fir branches and ribbon none of which they had. Guess this is what happens when you start your Christmas shop in September. Did find a hummingbird and pearl encrusted dove ornament and bought them instead. Then we wandered the streets taking in the Midtown holiday decor when we found ourselves in front of Virgil’s BBQ and decided it was a lucky omen. I ordered a trifecta bbq bowl ( chicky, brisket and pulled pork) with mac and cheese and collard greens. Probably more ingredients but guess I’ll discover it tomorrow since I brought home the leftovers.

Whipped shortbread

Tips:
This makes a lot of cookies. I frequently cut the recipe in half
Make the dough, roll into one inch balls then dip in colored sugar. Chill for at least one hour
Make sure your cookie sheets cookie sheets are cold. I put mine in the freezer between batches

Peanut butter blossoms

Tip
I have tried a lot of peanut butters and find jif works the best. It provides a real peanut taste and doesn’t get oily when I bake either it.

Peanut butter cup cookies

You need mini muffin pans to make these.

Thumbprints.

Tips
I cook mine for 9 minutes
Roll into 1 inch balls and make thumbprint then chill for at least an hour. Add the jam after its chilled but before you bake the cookies.
Make sure your cookie sheets are cold. I put mine in the freezer between batches

I don’t know what’s for dinner! Have been dealing with some drama and trying to get ready for Christmas, so I haven’t been meal planning.
Maybe I’ll send Hubby out for Luna Grill.

My DH uses this same recipe. And yes he is the baker. I am a very good taste tester.

Edit: he uses Jiff PB but only bc that’s what PB we use. Good to know it works best

Tonight we had Mac and cheese with salad. I planned to make tacos but mom dropped off Mac and cheese and I’m not saying no to her Mac and cheese!

I have already used 10 pounds of butter and most of a 25 pound bag King Arthur flour this holiday season. I have issues!

I wish I still had the health & energy to do that. Go crazy baking as long as you can.

The best kind of issues!!!

Homemade Chicken fajitas! Taco Tuesday is a must at our house - my youngest won't be thrilled it's not ground beef tacos, but hopefully some homemade chips and guac will make up for it

Hubby just left to pick up Chipotle.

I agree. I can't stand for too long and get tired too fast......and always seem to have other things needing my attention. Today it was defrosting the big chest freezer in the garage.
And my family is only 7.....we can't eat that many cookies. They each get to pick two....some want the same and the grand kids only want their one favorite, so that all helps.

We had hamburger meat that was expiring tomorrow, so we had to use it. And we made soft tacos. Packed leftovers to go for lunches tomorrow. I also had carrots.

Hot chicken soup.

We had leftover curry as I didn't have a key ingredient for the dinner I planned for tonight.

Used up the end of the Thanksgiving leftovers to make turkey stew.
