The one with 1,398,847 cookies

Ok.  So that may be a bit of an exaggeration.
But Saturday morning...afternoon....and evening my dad and I baked a LOT of cookies.
My brother had this genius idea that we should give Christmas cookies to some of our wine accounts and since he doesn't know a spatula from a measuring cup thought I was the perfect person to help.
So kitchen aid mixer in hand my dad and I got to work.
I'm not sure what the final count was, but I don't care if I ever bake another cookie again!

 Butter anyone?  And this was only half of it!
  
There were brownies....
and mint marvels....and gingersnaps oh my!


Our little elf was D-O-N-E by the end of the night!!

Wish I could FedEx a plate to all of you, they were delicious!!

Mmmm I wish you could FedEx a plate as well. Though to be honest we've gotten so much chocolate at work from vendors for xmas that all I really want to eat right now is fruit. haha.

Great job! Everything looks so yummy! For the past 5 years or so my brothers insist that I make my chocolate chip cookies for every Thanksgiving & Christmas. Every Christmas I wind up baking about 10 dozen or so to give to other people as well.

I love mint marvels...I really should make some for myself since I don't have you here to filch some off of.

That must have been nice to bake cookies with the family. The brownies look delicious and the little plates you put together for everyone are really nice.
