Loved this cookie idea I received in my inbox today from Martha Stewart's Cookie of the Day! What a fantastic idea for a cookie. Click on picture above or the following link to get the recipe:
Better Homes & Gardens has a wonderful slide show with photos and recipes for some delicious homemade gifts. CLICK HERE to take a look at their "Luscious Homemade Food Gifts". There are 26 recipes with photos and tips on how to package and give these gifts.I chose a few photos from the slide show to remind myself and anyone who reads this entry that making homemade treats for gifts can be very simple. In fact, I have learned to keep things simple. I think it is important to remember that a lot of people receive things like that around the holidays. So to just bundle a half dozen cookies in a nice way with ribbon and a pretty tag is best.
For instance the nougat treats above. There are only four. A great sampling of your culinary skills, but not too much. Four small treats packaged in a tasteful box with a nice personal message attached is perfect.
Remember, presentation makes all the difference.
