For Jessica Szohr, the holidays officially start a week before Christmas, when she visits her grandmother Karen Szohr in Milwaukee and helps bakes batches of cookies alongside her cousins.

"We all sit around the table and work while listening to Christmas music," says the Gossip Girl star, 25. "It's so much fun!" Even if there's a strict no-tasting policy during the annual bake fest. "If everybody got to eat, there would be no cookies!" adds Karen, 65.

Though Szohr admits she's still an amateur baker, she's learning: "I have to carry on this tradition or Christmas wouldn't be the same."
