It's that time of year again... Christmas end of year functions at every turn, children needing plates of food to take to school, and that desire to make some delicious treats for your neighbours, children's school teachers, and especially friends and family for Christmas celebrations.
I love things that are tasty, simple and quick to make. If you are in the mood to make something, here is a collection of a few of my most favourite goodies to bake/cook at Christmas time, previously shared on my blog.
Sweet Things
Coconut Ice - The ideal Christmas time treat. Quick and easy to make and keeps for ages in the refrigerator. I always roll mine into balls and dip in shredded coconut. Fabulous as a Christmas gift.
Chocolate Truffles - another favourite treat of mine to whip up and keep in the refrigerator until needed. Another great Christmas gift.
Chocolate Licorice Truffles - need I say more... these are so good!!
Gingerbread Christmas Biscuits & Spicy Dutch Biscuits - perfect for using your Christmas shaped cookie cutters on.
Marshmallow Plums - Such a cute little dessert, wonderful for Christmas celebrations.
Oaty Pancakes - the perfect thing for Christmas or Boxing Day brunch, especially good knowing that oats are involved after all that naughty Christmas eating!
Savoury
Blue Vein, Broccoli & Mushroom Quiche - a perfect dish for Christmas.
Potato Salad - my go to dish, especially good for preparing the day before. Best dish to go with the classic Kiwi Christmas BBQ.
Drinks & Dips
Roquamole Dip - A deliciously strong dip, great for serving with corn chips.
