Super moist chocolate cake is sandwiched between two layers of candy cane frosting. And then the whole cake is frosted in a shiny, creamy chocolate frosting. A sprinkle of crunchy, minty candy canes is an awesome addition to the whole thing and not to mention that the cake is so pretty!

These are adorable little ornaments made with chocolate and Sunflower butter!!! A delicious creamy seed butter that tastes so much like peanut butter it’s amazing. And I love how they are so cheerful and pretty and very festive. And the girls thought they looked like Christmas ornaments so that is how they got their photo moment!

Coco and I spent Sunday morning baking Christmas Cookies (because can you EVER have enough Christmas Cookies!!???) We wanted to make new cookies, and the prerequisite was that they were colorful and had frosting. These were Coco’s rules, but I was happy to agree.

The only thing I love more than recieving a hostess gift, is bringing one to someone else! Even when it is a joy for your host to have you, there is no denying how much hard work goes in on the part of the host or hostess to have people over and entertain and feed them. There is something so sweet about a small gift to acknowledge and thank them for their hospitality!

I don’t like to go to berserk on apps when I am going to serve and eat such an absolutely enormous meal, but a few light apps seem about right. Plus, it means that cocktail hour can last longer!
