I’m getting ready to skidaddle and head north to spend the holiday with my husband’s family, but I wanted to take a minute to wish all my readers a very merry Christmas! I appreciate your interest in my baking adventures and your support so much, and as my thanks to you, I have a super easy dessert if you need something quick to add to your holiday spread. I’m bringing this one to Abilene! I’m not a huge fan of gingerbread, but these are delicious. If you don’t have the gingerbread mallows handy, just use regular ones and double all the spices. I think you’ll like these a lot!
