Okay, what are your favorite Holiday "treats"?  I'm talking the stuff that is oh so good, but oh so bad for you ;)  You can post recipes if you'd like :)

My Mom always makes me rice crispy treats.  (One spaceace=one pan :))

Gingerbread cookies as well as peppermint nougat

Mine are rosettes, sugared pecans & puppy chow :P

Sugar Cookies with sprinkles!!! ;D

Puppy Chow, Chex Mix and Mexican wedding rings.

my mom has always made a really great variety of cookies. I especially love her Lady Locks, peanut butter cup cookies, thumbprint cookies, and sugar cookies with icing.

Chocolate oranges. This is only time of year I can find them so I stock up on them. The poor store I get them at. They know when I have come through because they have to restock the shelves when I get done.  ;D ;D

Spiced butter shortbread, triffle.

Thin mints, Mint chocolate M&Ms, Cherry Cordials.

It's my great-grandmother's recipe.  They are these cookies that are covered in powdered sugar and look crispy, but they practically melt in your mouth. 

Buck-eyes (peanut butter balls), Pumpkin Roll, and my mom's Christmas cookies (Sadly she isn't around to bake them anymore, and mine never taste the same...must have been the "love" she baked in them.).

Someone please tell me what Puppy Chow is?

Puppy Chow is cereal like Crispix or Rice/Corn Chex covered in peanut butter, then chocolate, then powdered sugar.  This is what it looks like:

My husband went to the grocery store over the weekend and I specifically asked him to get chocolate chips (even told him to make a list, but NOOOOOOOOOOOO ::))


He forgot ::) >:(

I love soft chex mix, cinnamon almonds, and sugar cookies with icing.  I also love love love Clementine tangeringes, even though they're good for you.  ;)  I buy a case every Christmas.

I love tangerines (but I'm the only one in this house who does.). I bought a case from the HS Band, I ate as many as I could and gave the rest to my daughter's class.
