The real benefits of working in an office appear around the holidays. Packages begin to arrive from vendors with treats – cookies, assorted sausage and cheeses, cheesecake, candy and my all time favorite gift, the collapsible cooler - and coworkers bring in baked goods to share with everyone. It’s carb and sugar heaven for those that can’t get enough.
Yesterday, I arrived at work to discover a little bag of Chex Muddy Buddies and a Christmas-themed take-out box of assorted cookies. It was gone by noon and I found myself trying to barter with my peers for their stash. I don’t typically crave sweets, but cookies and anything with peanut butter cause me to instantly cave.
My favorite treat? Fresh from the oven chocolate chip cookies. I’m not picky though, I’ll eat just about any cookie, even the dreaded oatmeal raisin cookie that I don’t even like to give the time of day. Set it in front of me and it will disappear, guaranteed.
What are some of your favorite holiday sweets? If you’re feeling ambitious, share the recipe!
