What kind of Candy or Cookies do you make for Christmas

I specialize in candies moreso than cookies, but the following are my traditional must haves, or my family wouldn't feel like it's Chritmas time.

Fudge
White Chocolate Fudge w/ Gl. Cherries and Walnuts
Divinity
Almond Butter Crunch (tastes like Almond Roca)
BuckEyes (peanut butter balls halfway hand dipped in chocolate)
Rum Balls
Cream Cheese Mints
Glazed Walnuts or Pecans

Gumdrop Cookies
Russian Tea Cakes
Coconut Butter Balls*

Most of these recipes can be found in Better Homes and Gardens New Cook Book. If you don't have one or want one of the recipes that isn't in there, just let me know and I'll try to post it for you.

* I substitute a Glaced Cherry for the Pecan half in the middle of this cookie.

Kellogg's Saves Mother's Cookies

When I heard that Archway and Mother's was bankrupt I was devastated, and wondering whatever would I do to replace my favorite store bought cookie that I eat every day with my mocha esspresso. Those frosted animal cookies are the perfect compliment to esspresso, IMO and quite frankly, I was in a bit of a panic about not being able to buy them any longer. I guess that I am addicted to them after eating them daily for so many years.

I live in a small town in the Last Frontier, and had managed to buy up all of the remaining bags left in the few grocery stores that we have here. I am on my last bag right now and stumbled upon this article when I googled Mother's Cookies. Imagine my delight at the news that Kellogg's was picking up the ball and we would be getting our beloved Circus Animal Cookies back. A million thanks Kellogg's!
