Cooking and Baking

Need baked gift for bf's parents for Christmas Eve. Help!

I need to get my boyfriend's parents something for Christmas since we're going over there for dinner on Christmas Eve.

He suggested I bake something. But then followed that up with rules like, no fudge, and no chocolate cookies. Apparently making either of those things would be akin to "giving a painting/sculpture to Michelangelo" because those are his Mothers' specialties.

I can't use nuts because his mother doesn't like them, and to top it all off, I'm going to be baking in his kitchen. There is no mixer, one cookie sheet and a couple of Pyrex baking dishes.

This has to be ready by Friday night at 6pm, and I have no time to work on it at all tomorrow or today. So nothing that involves freezing overnight.

If anyone has any suggestions, despite all these guidelines, please, please, PLEASE tell me!

And they also don't drink. So there goes the easy gift of a nice bottle of wine.
