Hassle-Free Holiday Baking: 6 Easy Days to Perfect Christmas Cookies
By: Mimi Cummins
Like many people, I love the idea of making a large assortment of Christmas cookies during the holidays, but I find it difficult to find the time to get it done. As a working mother, cookbook author and webmaster of Christmas-Cookies.com ( http://www.christmas-cookies.com ), I am a very busy woman, but baking Christmas cookies every year is a must. Over the past few years, out of frustration and necessity, I have developed a system for organizing my Christmas baking. This system allows me to make a large variety of holiday treats without taking too much time out of my busy schedule. By dividing the tasks up into 6 days, I can spend a couple hours each day getting this done, and on the 7th day, relax and enjoy giving and eating some delicious Christmas cookies. After all, God rested on the 7th day! You don’t even have to do this on 6 consecutive days. Most of the steps can be done days and even weeks in advance, giving you a great head start on your holidays.
Day 1
Search your books, recipe cards, and favorite Web sites and decide what recipes to make this year. I usually mix my traditional family recipes with a few new recipes for variety. 6 to 12 different recipes makes a nice assortment, depending on how many people you have to feed and how much time you have to spend baking. Write down the name of each recipe on a piece of paper, as well as the source of the recipe so that you can look it up later, such as the Web site URL or page number in a cookbook. Print out the recipes that you find online, and set aside the books or recipe cards you’ll need so that you can access them easily on Day 2. Things you may want to consider when making your selection are:
- difficulty of the recipe if you are a novice cook or will be baking with children,
- cost of special ingredients such as chocolate or nuts, if you are on a budget,
- whether the cookies keep well or can they be frozen, if you’d like to do your baking ahead of time.
Day 2
Consulting your list of recipes, create your shopping list. Calculate roughly how much of each ingredient you’ll need in total by adding up cups of butter, number of eggs, and other common ingredients. Include in your list:
- All of the ingredients for the cookies. Check what you have at home for freshness. Nuts and shortening will go rancid after a few months, and baking powder and baking soda lose their effectiveness, so keep this in mind: out with the old, in with the new! Fresh ingredients are the key to good tasting cookies.
- Any baking tools you may need. Consider replacing old worn out tools or adding a new tool to your collection each year.
- Anything you may need for decorating such as food coloring, colored sugars and jimmies, or pastry ....[MORE]
