Ugh..why is everyone talking about health food in here?

MoS, you can do peppermint or chocolate bark, probably easiest thing to make Michaels even has candy melts on sale this week.

1.  Super easy and looks pretty.

we even did candy popcorn, we air popped a ton of popcorn and then drizzled melted chocolate and sugar on it. You can do peppermint melts, or crushed peppermints as well to stick to the popcorn. We only put the sugar on because it was some very not sweet vegan chocolate i had sitting around.

That caramel rosemary popcorn that I think Bonita? posted last year is the shit.  Make that then send it to me

I will not be making anything with Peppermint.. I hate it!   I was told I should buy those slice em up cookies cuz "they're so good".. No way!   I've already reviewed Pinterest and I shall come up with something yummy and easy!

What about cake mix cookies? They're way better than sliced and look homemade, but so easy. I like making them with Devil's Food cake mix and topping with a few Reese's Pieces or M&M's (or those York Peppermint M&M-style things, but apparently you're against that). I've also done Funfetti and other flavors, but the Devil's Food always seems the most "homemade" to me.

This is the recipe I've used in the past: http://vegetarian.about.com/od/desertrecipes/r/Cakemixcookies.htm but I think I cook them a bit longer than it says. (It does say "don't overcook" and that's very true. If they seem a tiny bit underdone when you take them out, they should remain chewy rather than crunchy.)

My sisters refer to these cookies as Big Butt Cookies, because they eat them all without sharing any.  They are pretty good, and super easy.  You could also roll the little balls of dough in powdered sugar before baking to make chocolate crinkle cookies.

MoS, Pinterest definitely is a good place to look, fudge would also be a good thing to make, cut up in small pieces, etc.

This is even better if you use a Rolo instead of a Hershey's kiss.  My nephew made these for everyone for Christmas last year, and he was 3 1/2 at the time.  You can totally do that. 

Yeah, these are the first thing that disappears every time I make them.

My recipe really is easy, by the way. Unless dumping stuff in a pot and stirring is hard.

Ok I got my cookies picked out.  I am making chinese noodle butterscotch cookies.. easy peasy.

I remember those! They are yummy.
