On the eighth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me . . . eight chocolate cream filled cookies perfect for dunking in milk! And eight won’t be enough, trust us. These are a perfect imitation of one of America’s favorite cookies, only homemade so you can make them any size you want.
Mrs. Cratchit probably used a recipe similar to this to serve husband Bob, Tiny Tim and the rest of the family when she stuffed the Christmas goose. It’s a classic, traditional recipe for a reason—because it’s good!
Don’t worry about pricking yourself on these Prickly Pear Christmas Cactus Blossoms when you reach in—the prickly pear syrup makes for a unique flavor profile that adds a fun southwestern touch.
This appetizer pizza pairs the flavors of roasted butternut squash and fresh sage with creamy-rich Alfredo sauce, shaved Parmesan cheese and melting bits of crumbled blue cheese-baked golden and delicious on artisan flatbread. For this easy-to-assemble pizza, add toppings as needed, based on the size of flatbread you are using in recipe. For added convenience, alternate whole butternut squash with refrigerated diced butternut squash.
On the second day of Christmas, my true love gave to me . . . luscious little tarts filled with chocolate, caramel and pecans! If you make these with your kids, let them open the caramels. The anticipation will be part of the fun!
