Christmas is our favorite Holiday. Thanks to our mom we have so many fun Holiday traditions that we did as children that we still continue to do to this day. One of them is to watch How the Grinch Stole Christmas on TV. These Grinch Family Movies have definitely got more elaborate as the years have gone on. We used to have popcorn and hot chocolate as we huddled in front of the TV in our Christmas jammies.
Now we debut a brand new Grinch-themed treat every year (but the Christmas jammies are still a thing.) This year we will be indulging in these fun and adorable bite-sized Grinch Cake Bites as the Grinch reminds us about the true meaning of the season. Hope you enjoy them too!
