Will be posting some new holiday recipes soon, but in the meantime here’s a look at some of FFK’s festive bests! Check out our Thanksgiving roundup for other seasonal tasty treats.
Perfect for family cookie decorating fun!
These are still one of my Christmas faves, especially when I’m feeling London holiday market-nostalgic.
New Years or other Eve Eggnog!
This one’s an easy and crowd-pleasing alternative to the raw eggy traditional. Feel free to booze it up ;).
Still one of my faves. (story too :). Classic Scottish shortbread is a perfect holiday treat.
The easiest best latke recipe I’ve ever come up with, PLEASE MAKE THESE
Lovely little nutrient-dense, extra tasty winter-y appie for those of us skipping the cheese-filled date version. Also sage is awesome.
What are the holidays without gingerbread people? An endless void of dark nights! These have all the scents of Christmas and more, plus it’s fun to bite their heads off (no I’m not a sadist promise)
While we’re on holiday cookies, these are delicious, and red, thus they count.
So do these. You can never have too many holiday cookies, am I right?
And the rest of these all remind me of holiday flavors/winter, so go on and give them a looksie:
Baked Apples with Coconut Creme Anglaise (you could booze this up too)
Mint Chocolate Minions (and these)
Berry Blancmange (Little Women, anyone? That’s a winter book imo)
Golden Milk Chai and Hot Cocoa with Marshmallows (Warm drinks around the fire am I right…)
Black Sesame Plum Cake (great plum pudding alternative)
Matcha et al Truffles (coat one in ground freeze-dried raspberry for a Xmas version!)
Caramelized Pears with Pomegranate (lovely and light)
And for some reason, Pierogies (they just seem festive and winter-y, don’t ask me why)
Happy holidays, lovely readers!

Hello!
In the cookies ingredients, it has gelatin. Does this require adding the powdered gelatin directly or to mix the gelatin powder with water first before adding to the other ingredients?
Thanks,
Susana

Just add in directly as powder and mix as dry ingredients!
