Lori gifted me a jar of these Sugar & Spice Nuts at the Bakeoff and they disappeared in record time so she kindly shared the recipe with me. I added more nuts than it called for (2 c pecans) and there was still lots of coating for them. They make a lovely snack or quick hostess gift, but if you make them I'm warning you, they are very addictive!
And, because they are so small, I made a few batches of Lynn's Fudge Tartlets. I have a couple of loaves that I might still bake and will make Mince Tarts for Christmas Eve, but I think that's it for the baking. Although, the Official Cookie Tester is working his way through the tins at a good clips so I might not have a much in the freezer as I think.
Last time around I mentioned that the tree was up and Jane asked to see pics, so here are are few.
We usually get a Fraser Fir because the branches are nice and sturdy but this year had to settle for a Balsam Fir, and this one was both really thick and a little funny shaped, so I spent tons of time pruning it with my gardening secateurs.

The sugar and spice nuts look especially yummy! I am in awe of your cookie baking skills. Mostly I just drool over pictures and keep to simple sugar cookies.:)
You're making me hungry. Lovely festive post.
Love the cardinal deco!
