Christmas Treats!

I'm back to blogging now and so excited to share new things! I know I skipped blogging about Thanksgiving and that's why I wanted to be here for Christmas. My main Thanksgiving dessert was the one and only pumpkin cheesecake which I enjoy baking every year. For Christmas, I love to have a variety of treats...from cookies to bars to homemade quick breads and cheesecake (of course). Here are some of my favorite ones for this year and from years past:

1. Maple glazed gingerbread marshmellow treats
