Happy Holidays!
I have been doing a lot of baking, which I have been promptly passing along to friends and neighbors, lest I sit around eating it all day while hunting for a job. Seriously, dozens of cookies, muffins and bread… it could get bad. But, I love to bake, so bake I shall. How could I not, with my rusty, trusty tome?
In lieu of the holidays, rather than just making a batch of cookies, tossing them into Tupperware and calling it good, I got a little overly excited last week and sort of overdid it. Things will be quiet on these fronts through the holidays, so in the meantime, let your eyes feast upon this bit of food pr0n.
Snickerdoodles
Mocha Stripes
Snickerdoodles and Mochas were joined by Lemon Drops and Fudgie Wudgie bites
Orange Chocolate Chip Mini-Muffins (one recipe makes 3 dozen minis!)
Each department also got a small loaf of my Holiday Bread, infused with orange zest and speckled with dried cranberries- yum!
The whole lot, ready for eating
Here are the recipes for the Lemon Drop Cookies (my favorites!) and the Fudgie Wudgie Brownies. Have a happy and safe holiday, whether you celebrate or whether you eat Chinese food in your pajamas (or whether celebrating includes eating Chinese food in your pajamas)!
WOw.. these look sooo yummy
Thanks!
Oh man, you just made my eyes pop outta my head with all of these yum eats. Jim’s coworkers are quite lucky! Beautiful presentation.
Thanks a lot! The presentation is half of the fun.
Wow! I’m going to make the holiday bread for Christmas Eve and some of those cookies tonight.
Have a great Christmas!
Yay! I love the bread, it’s so easy and it’s very festive!
Everything looks so gorgeous and yummy! I am definitely going to whip some of those items up this week…..that bread looks divine! Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas to you, too!
I wished I worked Jim’s office…I want some of that glazed bread…OMG!
Haha, I don’t know how much they’ll like me when they all become borderline diabetics! 😛
Wow–you have outdone yourself! Not only did you bake amazingly delicious vegan goodies, but look at how you packaged it all! You have gone above and waaaaay beyond 🙂

Thanks, Courtney! Have a Merry Christmas!
Jim’s coworkers are a lucky bunch! Those packages look delightful. You did an awesome job!
Good luck with your own job hunt.
Thanks, Josiane! You know how it is… but I have some promising leads.
Those look AMAZING! Where did you get that awesome packaging?
Funnily enough, I got on clearance at Target last year after the holidays. I’m thrifty/cheap like that. 🙂
They all look so wonderful! They look really great in their packaging – not sure they would be in it long though! Everything looks absolutely delicious.I would love to bake the holiday bread over the holiday season, it looks to die for! Could you please tell me where I can find the recipe for it. Is it in one of your books?
Hi Siobhan! It is in my book 100 Best Vegan Baking Recipes. Happy Holidays!
OMG, all the holiday goods look amazing. Would you share the recipe for the Mocha Stripes please?
Hi there! The Mocha Stripes recipe can be found in my book 100 Best Vegan Baking Recipes. I would put it up, but quite a few recipes from that book are already posted on my site and my publishers don’t like me giving away the farm, you know how it is. 🙂 Thanks!
Thanks for letting me know about which book the holiday bread is in – I’ve been holding off buying one of your book until I knew which one. I’m off to Amazon right now. Your food looks sooo good!
I made the Holiday Bread for Christmas Eve. It was so good (and soeasy) we were all having “just one more little slice” – in the end I had to freeze some of it to stop eating it all in one day.
I also made your sweet wheat rolls – perfect!
