oohhh - I love when people make that kind of stuff for xmas! I dont know anyone who make stuff anymore, so I dont really bother myself. But since my kid is getting older I think I should get into pre baked goodies for xmas season (not mince tarts though - me and Dh hate raisons )
I always do gingerbread christmas trees - they are a must. I will often do brownies, hazelnut macaroons and shortbread. I'm not a fruit person, so I steer clear of fruit pies or fruit cake.
Rum balls are a must at christmas time in this family! Plus I also make christmas puddings in my slow cooker. Last year I made 2 of them for MIL to serve at christmas lunch (at her request mind you), but I will not be doing that again this year, after finding out that instead of serving the ones I made (which were delicious if I may say so), she served up tinned pudding instead! Why ask me to make them if you are going to eat tinned pudding??? Grrrrrr....
Anyway, the only other thing I always do is gingerbread men - DS loves to make these at christmas time, its a fun thing for the kids to do.
