Christmas Goodies

A few weeks before Christmas, Buddy and I made some yummy chocolate pretzel treats.  These are really easy and fun to make.
 We put some wax paper down on a cookie sheet, then put the pretzels with unwrapped Hershey Kisses on top.
 After putting the pretzels in the oven at 400 degrees for literally 2 minutes, we took them out... 
 and pressed plain M&Ms into the melty chocolate.  After they were all done, we put them in the fridge to set.
 We also used Hershey's Hugs and did the same thing with those.  These were my personal favorite. I liked the white chocolate flavor of the Hugs.
Aren't they pretty?  We made several of them and gave them as gifts to neighbors and friends as well as ate many ourselves.
 Another Christmas goodie we made were cut out cookies.  The kids loved decorating these cookies.  
 Jon was even able to help out and supervise.
 They look like they are really concentrating...
 And here are the finished products.  We ate a few and froze a few to save for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.
I think they turned out beautifully.
