Holiday Cookies Baking Get Together

Here is our holiday family fun get together - Baking Cookies for the Holiday.
And it's time to split the goodies.
Wish everyone a Merry Christmas!
The family approved recipes after all the baking and sharing were done came from
http://www.food.com and http://www.foodnetwork.com   I am very happy with these site's recipe.
1.  Bakery Style Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies - 2 batches; baked in our gas stove oven - checked right at 8 minutes and baked 2 to 2min30sec more minutes

2.  Christmas Chocolate Cherry Cookies - another bomb cookies (picture one at the top)

3.  Holiday Gingerbread Cookies from www.foodnetwork.com - this one is soooo good.   I love the distinct buttery taste.   I only put 1/2 Tbsp of Ground Ginger and Cinnamon, 1 tsp of nutmeg (instead of allspice because I didn't have allspice); however.   Because I don't like the feeling of eating 'spice' when I am eating cookies, but that is my preference.

4.  Cocoa Thumbprints - my grand-kids had the fun in stacking it up with caramels, marshmallows, and chocolate chips.   www.foodnetwork.com

5.   Kourabiedes (Greece):  Walnut Sugar Cookies from www.foodnetwork.com     We used crushed almonds instead of walnut.  It turned out great also.

6.  My personal candied popcorn recipe - drizzled with caramel and chocolate.

7.  a Box of Sugar cookie from Trader Joe.   It came with 3 cookie molds, tool.   Grand-kids made it into all kinds of shapes.

8.   Chewy bar made with Chocolate, white chocolate, caramel, marshmallows, and heavy cream.  Baked in the new handy gadget - electric brownie baker (it came with mini-bundt cake and mini-cupcake mold as well).  The result was interesting - "Hey! we need a chain saw to cut this".
