Holiday Sweets and Treats

“Ok, I went rogue on this recipe who follows rules right? Didn’t even look for a recipe I just went with what I knew! I know there are pecan pie bread pudding recipes out there but this one with the rum is just over the top ahhhh-mazing! Rich buttery taste and warm rum flavor (I also tried it with bourbon and it was just as good!). If you want a new take on an old fave, give this a try.” – Gina

“I knew I loved gingerbread because of this recipe. It was soft, warm, spiced just right, and tasted good with a little butter spread on it, like bread. My mouth is watering!” – Marcia

“This is a great hostess gift! My mom would use festive holiday bowls and bring to people she would visit. Fun and easy to make. I remember making these when I was just a kid.” – Roberta

“This cheesecake is always on the top of the list of cheesecakes to make. It covers the cravings of chocolate and cheesecake all at once. It’s my family’s favorite and mine as well.” – Annamaria

“This is a delicious recipe with a crust that is flaky and rich. Cream cheese and butter are a match made in heaven for a wonderful tasting crust. I love this slab pie because not only does it taste wonderful, but it feeds a lot of people. It is great to make for a pot luck or for a family gathering. It never fails to impress and gets rave reviews.” – Donna

“The yummiest part of a Pecan Pie with a little kick!” – Camille

“This is my favorite candy. If you like a Heath bar, this is even better. I make it nearly every year for Christmas.” – Melanie

“Christmas Cracker Candy is sweet, slightly salty, and buttery. Decorated with Christmas candy and sprinkles gives a little Christmas flair.” – Debbie

“This recipe has been handed down from my great-grandmother and before.” – Denise

“I came up with this Eggnog Sweet Potato Pie with a vanilla wafer crust recipe because I love cooking with eggnog and I really like sweet potato pie. But, I don’t care for pie crust. I usually use a graham cracker crust. But I was also making a cheesecake and only had enough graham crackers for one dessert. I did have a box of vanilla wafers. The result, yummmmm!” – Mellina

“I came up with this when I was trying to think of some kind of a Christmas treat for the kids. Us adults have rum balls… so, I thought this would be perfect for the kids! Well, the kids AND adults loved this!” – Lillian

“The best chocolate pie! There is a rich butter taste and a slight crunch to the top. This recipe does not use milk.” – Joan

“This is a smooth rich chocolate fudge that my grandmother had in an old cookbook.” – Dawn

“This is a melt-in-your-mouth cake. This recipe is a no-brainer, it was given to my mom by a very good friend years ago. It still works, I made it for work this past year and it went over great. Had people wanting me to make one for them to take home.” – JoSele

“The men in my life (husband, sons, and grandsons) love this flourless chocolate torte.” – Connie

“I wanted to experiment with my pumpkin cheesecake so I added a layer of Biscoff spread to the top and it was wonderful!” – Cara

“This wonderful recipe was my husband’s Hungarian grandma’s recipe. She would lovingly make them whenever the holiday season rolled around. So then after she passed away, I wanted to carry on her holiday tradition of making these yummy rolls for our family. One year I decided to try something different to change things up a bit when the holidays rolled around. But my husband’s father was so disappointed that year when he learned that I had not made any that I vowed never again to break this family tradition — that was over 20 years ago now and I haven’t since!” – Donna

“Good for Christmas or any time you want a little something different as a treat or maybe as a gift. Makes a wonderful side for Christmas morning breakfast. Bacon, brown sugar, syrup, crunchy, crispy, sweet, tangy, spicy, what is there not to like?” – Dave

“If you love Buttermilk Pie and you love chocolate then you will love this pie. The recipe for the Buttermilk Pie alone is wonderful, however, the addition of chocolate to this recipe is… well, there just are not enough adjectives to describe it. You will have to try it yourself, and, watch out. Have you a group of witnesses surrounding you, or, you will eat the whole pie.” – Shelia

“The lemon zest and fresh lemon juice in this pie make it taste so fresh and even more delicious!” – Steven

“This is the pie that goes with the Chocolate Cream Pudding and Pie Filling I just made today. This by far is the best all-time favorite chocolate pie filling. After making this you’ll never buy another boxed mix again.” – Freda

“Extra good with a little whipped cream on top of the rum sauce.” – Cyndee

“This is a recipe that’s a must during Christmas. I make it every year, especially because it is my daughter’s favorite.” – Lily

“It seems pecan pie is a favorite among many any time of the year. Since I am partial to chocolate, fudge, etc., the combination of pecans and chocolate is the best of both worlds for me. This recipe is not only delicious, but very easy to prepare and bake. It is a nice variation from the normal pecan pie.” – Sena

“I am not really sure why fruit cakes have such a bad wrap as this fruit cake was really good. It was nice and moist and full flavour! The cake had a hint of booze without being overwhelmed by it.” – Kevin
