Holiday Cookie Baking Class – December 17, 2016

 

Twas the Night before Christmas…The children were nestled all snug in their beds, while visions of Sugar Plums danced in their heads. On Saturday, December 17, 2016, 12:30 – 4:30, we will be baking 1000 cookies from eight different recipes at our annual Holiday Cookie Baking Class.  Join us for this 12th annual tradition and bring the children with you so they can make some “sugar plums” of their own.  Free admission for one child under 12 with each adult.  We will have a table where the kids will decorate their very own cookies to take home. 

Every one will go home with a plate of cookies that you and your friends have baked together along with recipes for baking at home.  Yesterday, I had the very good fortune of meeting renowned cookbook author, Dorie Geenspan at a Melissa’s Produce cookie tasting and we will be baking two cookies from her newest book, Dorie’s Cookies.  It was way too difficult to choose which cookies we will bake from the ones I tasted, but I think we will have a beautiful array of cookies on our plates that your guests will ooh and aah over.

Here’s the cookies that will be on your cookie plate this year when you attend the Holiday Cookie Class on December 17, 2016 at the Holy Nativity Community Hall.

1. Snowy Topped Brownie Drops – from Dorie’s Cookies
2. Classic Jammers – from Dorie’s Cookies – baked in muffin tins!
3. Coconut Oat Bars with Chocolate Chips from Tasting Page.com
4. Cinnamon Almond Shortbread from La Cucina Italiana
5. Caramel-Crumble Bars from RecipeGirl.com
6. Peppermint Pin Wheels
7. Sugar Cookies – cutouts for the kids to decorate
8. Spritz Cookies – made with a cookie press and decorated with sprinkles

You don’t want to miss this class.  So much fun!  Bring your apron, cookie tin and the kids for an afternoon of baking and holidaying.   Patricia K. Rose, of Fresh Food in a Flash will lead this hands-on cooking class on Saturday, December 17, 12:30 – 4:30 at the Holy Nativity Community Hall in Westchester.
