Most likely an inherited trait, I have a MASSIVE sweet tooth. I practically require sugary stuff on a very regular basis. Cookies, candy, pie, cake, brownies, blah blah blah all of the above. My mom is also this way, so we enable each others' sugar addictions around Christmas by making loads of Christmas cookies. One might say this is a tradition of ours. It's especially easy now that my husband and I live so close to my parents.
Every year, there's a list of several types of cookies that we'll go through, choosing 3 or 4 to make a few dozen. This year, we got together over a couple of weekends and made sandwich cookies, candy cane cookies, spritz, and toffee (not a cookie, but a must-have Christmas sweet). Separate from that, my mom also made cinnamon sticks. I didn't take photos of everything, but here are a couple from the baking extravaganza.
