our family offerings are bread pudding and sugar cookies. The_Muted_Grimaud Send a noteboard - 05/12/2011 05:25:01 PM
I have a cousin and an aunt that always do bread pudding for the holidays, and my mom always makes sugar cookies with icing and decorations. Decorated sugar cookies are pretty ubiquitous around the holidays actually.

For thanksgiving we usually have apple pie and pumpkin bread. (We live in an apple orchard heavy region, apple items are very popular September-November.)

My family's Christmas is Second Thansgiving, but with bonus desserts. Mostly pie, cookies, and candy *NM* Burr - 04/12/2011 03:00:51 PM 440 Views
Or rather... Fifth Thanksgiving. Thanksgivings 2, 3, and 4 are all about Thanksgiving 1 leftovers. *NM* Burr - 04/12/2011 03:02:42 PM 329 Views
No, generally we do not make cake for Christmas. *NM* Tom - 04/12/2011 04:41:05 PM 341 Views

We don't have a sheet of icing? Palatine - 04/12/2011 05:08:00 PM 728 Views
We have different icing. It is not typically a very dense, flat sheet of solid icing. Like fondant. nossy - 04/12/2011 07:46:41 PM 998 Views
That's just for Christmas cakes and wedding cakes, usually. Rebekah - 04/12/2011 07:58:55 PM 820 Views

its a fruit cake with a layer of marzipan and a layer of icing on top Yunalesca - 04/12/2011 08:32:55 PM 821 Views
Plus with loads of brandy used to "feed" the cake over the month before you ice it. Rebekah - 04/12/2011 08:45:28 PM 726 Views
i put three teaspoons on each cake once a week Yunalesca - 04/12/2011 09:35:23 PM 713 Views

There are other birds which it's "acceptable" to eat at Christmas, other than turkey. Tim - 05/12/2011 10:02:20 AM 711 Views

Fruitcake, I guess. But we don't coat it with disgusting icing. And it's not really cake. *NM* Ghavrel - 04/12/2011 10:12:21 PM 346 Views
Pie in November and December. Cake the rest of the year. TaskmasterJack - 04/12/2011 11:52:31 PM 768 Views
