Christmas Treats



This Christmas we headed out to chilly Minnesota for a couple weeks. It had been a LONG time coming and I told myself I was going to relax while on break from school. Instead of keeping the couch occupied I decided to fill the house with yummy deliciousness. Since it was Christmas time I opted for the traditional gingerbread cookies and not so common homemade marshmallows. My in law's were ecstatic to learn you could make marshmallows at home without the use of corn syrup. I made two batches... one with corn syrup and one without. they were both amazingly fluffy and delicious but the one without the corn syrup was a little more dense but perfect to pop directly into a cup of hot cocoa after some time playing in the beautiful glimmering snow for a bit. This wasn't all my culinary adventures in MinneSNOWta but these are the most festive.
