I did 6 batches of butter cookies (each batch is 50 or so) I melt chocolate and make them sandwiches 3 batches of hershey kiss blossom(50 a batch) 2 batches of mint candy canes(50) 4 1/2 batches of rainbow (not sure on how many but it is ALOT) 1 batch of reindeer cookies (48) 9 batches of keifles (about 20 a batch) 2 batches of chocolate chip (50 a batch)
I make a HUGE platter for work and I give it to alot of friends and family
I dont count out how many I give. I just make a platter where the cookie amount looks even on the platter
But I know my bro loves rainbow so i put more on his platter.
I am a crazy baker! I started a week and 1/2 ago! I baked every night up until last night!
Eventually when we have kids I am sure the baking will decrease a little and be a NORMAL amount LOL We shall see!
