Last year I made Christmas rice crispie treats. I colored the Marshmallow mixture green. I added captain crunch berry to the cereal for ornaments. I cut them into triangles. Kids and adults liked them.

OMG .... Those look too darned dangerous .... as in eat them all?

Wondering?
Is there any reason why one couldn't simplify the messy part,
and smoosh the mix into a pan and cut as squares?

Thanks!

Oh my goodness.... I made a 'test batch' of the Chocolate Mint Marshmallow cookies and, of course, I had to taste the mixture while making it - yummy! But then.. once it was refrigerated for awhile and I went back to try a nice chilled mint cookie.. oh.my.goodness. these are wonderful!

Easy & taste delicious! Thank you for the recipe

TheMerkleFamily ... thanks for the further endorsement and making the desires even stronger!

What do about my question about spreading the mixture into a pan and cutting as squares?

I am so not a fiddler and this would make it all so much easier.

Related sort of. Quilt fabric and cookies. Moda has a colorway of grunge called “Sugar Cookies.” It is a neutral with some light color patches.

Thank you so much for this website! I just love it! I enjoy reading those old recipes from 1923 to present day. I should be in the kitchen making the cookies! I found one that used bacon fat for the shortening which is what my Grandmother always used and it added the best flavor to the cookies. I'll never forget it. A real pleasant flashback. Thank you again!

Just like how a lot of bakeries have flavors of sweets with bits of bacon for that lovely sweet and salty combo.

Had to update the thread with pics of my Christmas Cookie Platters - I'm in full production mode now! I will prepare and give away 15-18 of these over the next few weeks.. Lots of yummy stuff here! I move them out as soon as I bake them otherwise I would eat them all!!

In this batch I included the Worlds Best Cookie recipe (thanks DarcyShannon) and I added holiday colored sprinkles.. I plan to mix up the selection as I continue to bake.

Anyone hungry for some holiday sweets??

Oh, Christine, they look so yummy! The Santa's Garbage Cookies are terrific. I think they will be standards for us from now on.
