HOLIDAY RECIPES – Sweet Treats

If you’re looking for quick and easy holiday recipes, you can’t go wrong with these! The first time I ever tasted this delicious fudge was when my sister made it when we were in high school! I started making it when my kids were small for gifts and have been making it every year since. It’s a favorite! In fact, my son just texted me this afternoon asking me for the recipe. That’s become a tradition too! Maybe I should give him a recipe box for Christmas! Better yet, sign him up for one of the online recipe sites. I haven’t tried them myself, but I’ve thought about it.  Here’s Life Hacker’s Best Apps to Manage Your Recipes.

CHRISTMAS PECANS

Each year my sister sends us delicious pecans from Virginia. So, every year I make this simple treat and a southern tradition! It quickly became a family favorite. You can also buy yummy pecans at Costco for a really good price around this time of year. Sometimes I buy a bag and make them for gifts.

I love scones and I can’t wait to make these! I’ll let you know how they go. This will be a first. Several years ago I tried my hand at making biscotti and was amazed by how easy it was. I hope these are the same!

  1. Your blog looks particularly festive this week with photos that look almost edible. I made scones for my sister’s birthday party in September but they didn’t look as wonderful as yours. 🙂
