Christmas Eve Cookie/ Christmas Breakfast

So First off Happy Holidays to all!!! Christmas at my house was fun and super exhausting. It is the day after Christmas and I've spent most of my day in my room in bed.So Christmas Eve, my girls and I made cookies. The traditional chocolate chip cookies, and sugar cookies. However, the sugars cookies we made had a bit of a twist. We used store bought sugar cookie dough and made sugar cookie cups.This is easy to do, but be careful, because they burn easily. I should know, we burned our first batch :(So along with the cookie dough, a mini muffin pan is needed. Brush the muffin pan with melted butter (I used cooking spray the first time and they burned, so use butter). Press the cookie dough down in the pan and bring up on the sides so it looks like a cup. Bake as directed and let cool. Be cafe you don't burn them.Now for the filling. I used a strawberry cream cheese filling. Easy to make: One pack of room temperature cream cheese. Added sugar (sugar amount varies on how sweet you like it) and juice from macerated strawberries (macerated strawberries: added sugar to fresh strawberries and put in the fridge for a few hours. This brings the juice out) and mix with a hand mixer until smooth.Add filling into cups and place a strawberry on top. Let sit for a few moments and then enjoy. We really enjoyed these.CHRISTMAS BREAKFASTYesterday morning, I decided to make my own waffles. So I went out and got a waffle maker and made waffle batter from scratch.So the batter consist of: 2 cups of flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 2 eggs, 1 1/2 cups of milk, and 2 or 3 tablespoons of 1/2 cup of sugar, 1 pinch of salt, 5 tablespoons of melted butter (3 tablespoons go in mixture, the other 2 is for the waffle iron) and cinnamon (but any flavoring can be subsituted, vanilla, chocolate). Mix everything together until all dry ingredients are mixed well. Follow direction on the waffle iron. I used sliced bananas to top off my waffles.To go along with the waffles, I made scramble eggs, hashbrowns and bacon. Just a heads up, the waffles were so big, no one could finish them alone. So one waffle is enough for two people. :)
