With Christmas baking/cooking season in full swing, I thought I would ask this question. What is your favorite Christmas cookie or candy?

I have so many, but here are a few (homemade of course):

White Mice (sort of like a mexican wedding cookie but better)
Classic Fudge
white chocolate/peppermint bark

Springerles

Anise-flavored cookies made with powdered sugar and egg whites, and shaped using specially carved wooden molds, originally from Germany.

Which reminds me....it's a good thing Louisville has German bakeries.

Anybody got the recipe for cornflake candy. My grandma makes it, but I keep losing the recipe. It's the one with peanut butter, cornflakes, and I think corn syrup.

DaJudge,

I'll call my grandma again. Do you want the recipe? It's super simple.
