Twix is getting in on the seasonal flavor bandwagon, releasing these gingerbread-flavored candy bars. Contrary to what you might expect, the gingerbread flavor doesn't come from the cookie—it's the caramel that's infused with it.

You can grab a bag at Walmart and on Amazon.

BAILEYS Coffee Creamers

You already dip sugar cookies in coffee, so this just takes things to the next level (and spares you from turning on the oven). If the BAILEYS branding has you doing a double take, let us clear things up—there's no alcohol in this creamer ... though that doesn't mean you can't add it yourself.

Bring a package of these to your family's holiday dinner to send the subtle message to grandma that NOBODY LIKES BUTTER MINTS. Of course, the bag will probably be gone by the end of the night, and then what would go in her cut-crystal bowl in the foyer? Better bring two bags.
