I'm making my annual Christmas shortbread. Anyone else making holiday treats?

That looks beautiful (and yummy)! I've been baking all day today and part of yesterday. So far I've made.... Peanut Butter Blossoms, chocolate chip cookie bars, molasses cookies, layered oreo's and cream cheese, and hubby has made his "famous" peanut butter fudge.

I'll be making a 7&7 in about 15 minutes. Does that count as a treat? ;;D

Don't forget to use REAL butter :)

I made a scratch bananna cream pie and it ain't making it to Christmas. Serves everyone else right for not being here for the entire Christmas season.

Here's that oreo recipe Pam.....

Striped Delight

35 Oreo Chocolate Sandwich Cookies, finely crushed (about 3 cups)
6 tablespoons butter or margarine, melted
1 (8 ounce) package Philadelphia Cream Cheese, softened
1/4 cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons cold milk
1 (12 ounce) container Cool Whip Whipped Topping, thawed and divided
3 1/4 cups cold milk
2 (4 serving size) packages Jell-O Chocolate Flavor Instant Pudding & Pie Filling

Mix crushed cookies and butter in medium bowl. Press firmly onto bottom of 13 x 9-inch baking dish. (I found using a flat bottomed glass worked best) Refrigerate 10 minutes.

Beat cream cheese, sugar and 2 tablespoons milk in medium bowl with wire whisk until well blended. Gently stir in 1 1/4 cups of the whipped topping. Spread over crust.

Pour 3 1/4 cups milk into large bowl. Add pudding mixes. Beat with wire whisk 2 minutes or until well blended. Pour over cream cheese layer. Let stand 5 minutes or until thickened. Drop remaining whipped topping by spoonfuls over pudding; spread to cover pudding.

Refrigerate at least 4 hours. Cut into squares.

Store leftover dessert in refrigerator.
