I don't have a lot of money this Chritmas so I was planning on baking some goodies and maybe buying him something small if I come across something I think he'll enjoy. He eats anything and loves food and baked goodies. I was thinking of rum balls and I need some more suggestions to make a nice variety.

Peanut Brittle!!
INGREDIENTS
1 cup butter, softened
1 cup white sugar
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon grated orange zest
2 tablespoons orange juice
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups chopped cranberries
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 teaspoon grated orange zest
3 tablespoons orange juice
1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
DIRECTIONS
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
In a large bowl, cream together the butter, white sugar and brown sugar until smooth. Beat in the egg until well blended. Mix in 1 teaspoon orange zest and 2 tablespoons orange juice. Combine the flour, baking soda and salt; stir into the orange mixture. Mix in cranberries and if using, walnuts, until evenly distributed. Drop dough by rounded tablespoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheets. Cookies should be spaced at least 2 inches apart.
Bake for 12 to 14 minutes in the preheated oven, until the edges are golden. Remove from cookie sheets to cool on wire racks.
In a small bowl, mix together 1/2 teaspoon orange zest, 3 tablespoons orange juice and confectioners' sugar until smooth. Spread over the tops of cooled cookies. Let stand until set.

Well depends on what he likes....... my man isn't such a chocolate lover so I don't think he'd be too happy to get brownies. Or maybe he'd eat one or 2........ Anyhow, my mom bakes some gorgeous cookies made with crushed nut, butter, flour and sugar. You shape them into a crescent moon (you shape a thin cylinder and then bend it in a curved shape). Or you can choose a different shape. After they're done you coat them in caster sugar..... they're delicious!!!
