Just one week to Christmas!  So, if you are looking for some last minute baking ideas, look no further!

Here I have put together some cookies that are easy to make ahead and put in your freezer for Christmas.  They make lovely gifts when put together on assorted trays, great for taking out of the freezer when unexpected guests arrive and for just enjoying yourself.

Cookies and bars don't have to be labelled "Christmas" to serve during the festive season.  There are so many baked treats that suit the season and here are a few of my favourites. 

Happy Baking friends!

Shortbread is a classic Christmas favourite for many, me included.  And this variety with dried cranberries and a drizzle of white chocolate gives them a bit of an extra festive touch.

This sums up Christmas in a glass.  Spiced and warming with a bit of a kick.  So perfect for Christmas day!

Why not spice things up a bit with this Thai Red Chicken Curry.  It's a super easy dinner that's done in 30 minutes flat!  Great for busy week night dinners.  Take a look!

If you haven't started your cookie baking yet, it's time to start!  These Double Chocolate Chunk Cookies could be a great starting point.  They might not look like much but they are deliciously chewy and chocolaty!
