While I have never been much on baking without my grandmother since it is kind of a tradition for us to bake together, this year I think I am going to try to do things a little differently. I am going to try to make some recipes I have never made before. I am obviously going to make some fun Christmas Tree Cookies but also try stuff new. Here is a delicious fun treat that I saw and knew it would be delicious. This Festive Minty Mocha Trifle Recipe is to die for and easy to make, even for me.
