Yay! Snow! What should I bake tomorrow?

I want to stay in and bake. Any simple ideas? Thanks

Sugar cookies, of course. You can go out and shovel while the dough is chilling.

But my favorite is gingerbread. Not cookies, the actual bread. Served warm with a dollop of whipped cream, or eaten cold later with cream cheese.

I jus stopped by Trader Joe's to pick up the fixings for our Christmas specialty -- pepperoni bread.

1 bag pizza dough
8 slices provelone cheese, diced
12 slices pepperoni (or a bag of pizza pepperoni, or about half a stick of pepperoni) - diced

spread pepperoni and cheese on pizza dough and roll it up into a loaf, bake at 350 for about 35 minutes.

Yum!

These are my favorite winter cookie - Ginger crisps, with crystallized ginger:

I'm making meatloaf-I'm going to grate the breadcrumbs myself which I would never do if I could leave the house today. The last 20 minutes of baketime the loaf will be glazed with a brown sugar and ketchup paste-yum (can you tell I'm already getting stir-crazy?)

I'm making fudge. Never tried it - went out and bought a candy thermometer yesterday - apparently I was not the only one with the idea, as the store had only two left when I went in at 4 p.m. - and it both were display models! I can't wait.

We made Martha Stewart's Surprise Cookies (receipe on her website), but basically are a chocolate drop cookie with a marshmallow hidden under some chocolate frosting. Yummy!

Also, I am making some gingerbread white chocolate bars from her website too!

You can do these with a cherry too - my favorite! They are called "Buried Cherries" Just finished 4 dozen (not just me)

Bake your favorite winter indulgence.
