Oooh I need to bookmark this thread for future reference. My family usually makes a lot of traditional Norwegian food. As awful as it may sound, we make a kind of fruitcake (Julekake) that's freaking amazing. We also make paintbrush cookies and have fun painting ridiculous stuff on them.
Ohhhh and don't forget the egg nog! We always make a TON of that.

Today, a co-worker gave me some of the Krumkake that she made. I'd never had it before, but it reminded me of a thin pizzelle (and reminded me of this thread too!)

My mother-in-law made these oreo cookie balls this weekend. I'm not a huge oreo person, but these things were awesome. All it was- a package of oreos smashed up and mixed with a package of cream cheese. Blend well, then shape into balls. then dip the balls in chocolate. My nephew and I hid the container so they wouldn't all get eaten!

Really easy Peanut butter fudge
Boil 2 cups of sugar and 1 cup of milk to soft ball stage. Add 1/2 cup of peanut butter. Pour into pan or on plate. Let cool.
(The easy way to remember to make any quantity is to double your pnut butter to get your milk and double your milk to get your sugar.)

I can't wait until my mom makes her sweet potato casserole (with praline topping). It seriously is heaven!
I hate when my family says "your old enough that you have contributing to Thanksgiving...what are you going to make?" and then I give them an idea and they frown. Don't tell me I have to make something if you aren't going to like what I make.
I really want to try the Roast Turkey that I saw on the Paula Deen show. But our oven doesn't work anymore...

You could always bring Choco Tacos and kill two birds with one stone.  You'd get the taco AND the sweets.

Don't forget the 4 leggers! Here is a great dog cookie recipe. I've yet to know a dog that didn't go nuts for these!
Ingredients:
1 cup oats
2 ½ cups flour
½ cup cornmeal
½ cup creamy peanut butter
1 cup chicken broth (or water is ok too)
1/3 cup oil
2 eggs
2 tsp. Vanilla
Preheat oven to 350. Blend wet ingredients together, then mix in the dry ingredients. Form a dough ball. Roll out to about ¼ inch and cut out with a cookie cutter. Place onto lightly greased or non stick cookie tray and bake for 20 minutes. Turn off oven and let treats cool in oven until crisp and hard. Store in airtight container.
