Here it is:  gift giving season is right around the corner.  I’m constantly challenging myself to give thoughtful gifts, yet not break the bank.  If you go to a ton of parties or have a large circle of friends and family it can get really expensive. You have to get creative-which takes a little extra planning.  I’m really pleased with myself.  I have already found my go-to gift idea of the season.  This delightfully cute, porcelain to-go container from CB2 is only $7.95!  Fill it with goodies and you’re done.  The recipient enjoys the treats and is left with a great serving piece for her home.  Full disclosure: the cookies pictured above are Betty Crocker refrigerator cookies.  We will call that semi-homemade.  {Why yes, they were made in my home!}   I have a brainstormed a list of goodie ideas from store bought to truly homemade below.

Treat ideas:

Store Bought

1.  Almond Roca (Everyone’s favorite, even if they won’t admit it!)

2. Peanut M & M’s

3.  Gardetto’s

Semi-Homemade

1. Refrigerator cookies

2. Peanut Butter Chocolate Acorns

3.  Brownies from a box

Homemade (But still insanely easy!)

1.  Five Minute Fudge

2.  Easy Toffee

3.  4 Ingredient Peanut Butter Cookies

4.  Sweet Pecans

Any other great ideas on how to fill this awesome bowl?  Leave a comment so we can all appreciate your creativity!
