Holiday Foods

Yesterday I bought my first Christmas gift of the season. It made me want to buy more. I have already begun trying to prep for the holidays by making the Christmas list and organizing exactly what I plan to make and for whom.

A part of holiday giving is baking but is hard with a very temperamental oven to cook anything. So I’ve been on the lookout for simple holiday treats with either a short cook time or don’t require an oven.

One idea I found was cookie cutter white fudge. Basically you take a cookie cutter and place it on wax paper. Melt white chocolate and a few other ingredients and then pour into cookie cutter. Let it set and then decorate the top. Wrap up in cellophane for a sweet holiday treat perfect for giving. I may try to make a round to practice before giving them. I always like to cook/bake something at least once before I give it to someone.

  1. Great post, thanks for sharing.

  2. Try a oreo truffel. Take a package of oreo cookies and but them in you food processor until they are fine crumbs then add 8 oz of soft cream cheese. It will form the center of your truffle. Melt semi sweet chocolate morsels. Roll the truffle center into the chocolate and put in the fridge. I use this recipe alot when I need something quick but special..thanks..

  3. Nice! You gave me a very good idea. I haven’t started my Christmas shopping and this post gave me an idea on what should I do. Thanks so much!
