Sweet giveaway! 😀
My favorite holiday yummies to make are fool-proof fudge, oatmeal scotchies, & even though I hate cleaning up melty marshmallow I do love cornflake wreaths. Oh, & candy-cane-shaped cookies, with extra almond extract, are an absolute family tradition!
Favorite things to make are custard, pumpkin, and eggnog mochi cakes!
I love to MAKE peppermint marshmallows and pumpkin whoopie pies and love to EAT my grandma’s lemon bars.
I love to bake pumpkin spice or banana bread w/choc chips and wrap them as gifts! Or for ourselves and enjoy with coffee 🙂
Meringue mushrooms. I have no idea why my family makes these at Christmas but we do and they are so delicious.
I love to bake my dad’s pumpkin pie & sweet potatoe pie, he still a very big part go out family Thaksgiving even with is passing 🙂
My mom and I always make “Food for the Gods” for the holidays! The Filipino specialty is something that we love to make for our friends and family during the holidays (& eat the leftovers of course hehe)!
There are these simple-to-bake, simple-to-decorate cookies I found years ago that I keep coming back to – they’re a simple walnut cookie, with a smooth shortbread-ish dough that you use a spoon to mold into a sort of oval shape before baking – and then when they’re baked, you dip one end first in some melted chocolate and then in some chopped walnuts, so they look like acorns. They look fancy with little effort, and they’re tasty.
My favorite thing to eat is my sister in law’s sweet potatoes. I don’t what she does , but she does it so well.
I have a chocate cookie recipe that has smashed up candy canes baked on top. I love how glassy and sleek they melt on the cookies and my kids like using the mallet to break up the candy canes. Peppermint-chocolate is the best combination!
I think I’d have to say that mince pie is something I only make around the holidays that I really love. I really should make it more often, I suppose, but then it wouldn’t seem so special.
my moms collard greens are by far my favorite dish!!!
I love to make classic Christmas cookies!
Aw dang it! I saw this on Sunday and I couldn’t get my mobile to cooperate and then I forgot to come back right away. 🙂
But seriously– deeee-lishiawesome. That’s the word for this. And so pretty, too. I have a love hate relationship with mint flavored desserts– I love them but then at some point I start thinking about toothpaste too much. Ha ha ha.
