Christmas Baking

This year I wanted to do some Christmas baking with the kids – especially since covid has our holidays looking a lot different than normal. Our province has been pretty slack in restrictions but recently decided that the holidays will be restricted to immediate family only (except you can still go shopping with your extended family, eat at a restaurant, or do any number of other activities).

Anyway, we’ve made butter tarts, rice crispy treats with dates instead of marshmallow, a gingerbread village, and now we’ve made Christmas nougat. I wasn’t sure what to expect, I don’t think I’ve ever had nougat before – but this was simple and delicious. I’ll definitely be making it in the future.

The family got together and created a little gingerbread Christmas village – since my littles are 4.5 and 2.5 respectively, it was a ton of fun. Yes, they ended up eating more than was placed on the houses, but we all had a great time. Just a little tradition that I absolutely adore.
