20 Days of Christmas Cookies! Day 2: Chocolate Walnut Pie Bars

December 3, 2012   |   11 Comments

christmascookies

Happy Monday everyone! 22 days until Christmas!  Are you ready?

Today for 20 days of Christmas Cookies, I have a guest sharing a recipe.  This is one of my very good friends, Jen.  Jen and I became friends while we lived in Iowa and our oldest boys started preschool together.  After our boys got to know each other, they became just as good of friends as their Mom’s.  Her second son and my youngest followed right in toe and became best buds too.  While we were in Iowa we had purchased land to build a home and at the time didn’t know Jen or her family, but our new home ended up being almost right in their backyard.  Our boys did not even have to cross a road to get together to play, it was perfect!  Although we have now moved to Minnesota, our friendship remains strong.  I really miss her and her family every day though.

Jen and her family have a really great family tradition.  Every year at the beginning of December, they get together for a Cookie Bake/exchange.  I was honored to be apart of this for two years and it was a blast!  This is a pretty big family and I know that this year they made over 5000+ cookies in one day!  How amazing is that?!  Today I am sharing one of the cookie bars that she made this year for the exchange.  Thanks, Jen, for sharing your yummy goodie today! 

Enjoy!

    You really make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this topic to be actually something which I think I would never understand.
    It seems too complicated and very broad for me. I'm looking forward for your next post, I will try to get the hang of it!
