Okay Guys, I need some help! I know it is very early, and since many of you
are suffering through very hot temperatures I am quite sure you don't even
want to think about this, but I need some ideas for Christmas Baking!!!!
Yes, you heard me correctly - Christmas Baking! As most of you know I
volunteer as the Chef at the local Salvation Army's Commercial
Kitchen/Restaurant, and help out wherever I can with the food preparations
for other functions and outreach programs.
Our Christmas fundraising and toy drives are already underway, and we kick
off with a Biker's Toy Ride in September. After that, the baking needs will
be steady until January!
As part of the Toy Ride activities, we are hosting a reception for the
bikers, businesses, etc in the evening. We will be decorating the
restaurant with Christmas decorations, and I have been asked to prepare
Christmas finger foods, cookies, and assorted dainties for the approximately
300 people that will be in attendance.
I have the finger food taken care of, but I seem to be having a bit of a
brain freeze when it comes to thinking up a wide variety of Christmas baking
items. This is where I need your help!! What are your favorite Christmas
goodies?? (We are a nut-free facility, so unfortunately anything with
peanut butter or nuts is out.)
I am planning on deep frying many rosettes, and mini filled donuts, but I am
wondering what other things you can think of that are a bit elegant, are
single bite-ish, and are deep fried. That way I can do all the deep frying
at once while I have fresh oil in the fryers.
I have already prepared several mini tarts, (crabapple, mincemeat, raspberry
pumpkin, wild blueberry, peach, rhubarb), as well as several dozen scuffle
cookies. I have a few other things floating around in my mind, but I would
love to hear any and all of your favorites!!
Looking forward to your ideas!!
