Christmas Recipes

Lassy Mogs. A Newfoundland favourite; well spiced, soft cookies with a deep molasses flavour and filled with dried fruit and crunchy pecans. Irresistible!

Coconut Lemon Crumble Bars

Haystack Cookies. An updated quicker and easier version of this old fashioned recipe, using sweetened condensed milk to prepare this simple type of macaroon.

Turkey Tetrazzini with Almond Parmesan Topping – an intensely flavourful, very satisfying comfort food idea for turkey or chicken. Heck, I’d even roast an extra chicken on a Sunday, just to have this on Monday!

Chocolate Cherry Oatmeal Cookies. These very eye catching cookies are crispy and chewy and make welcome additions to packed lunches. They freeze well too and would make a great addition to a Holiday baking list.

Caramel Stuffed Salted Chocolate Cookies. Soft chocolate cookies stuffed with a caramel candy and sprinkled with sea salt.

Blueberry Coconut Crumble Bars. A blueberry version of a tried and true recipe that first appeared as a lemon crumble bar. The buttery coconut crumble is surprisingly delicious with blueberry too.

Cherry Pecan Cake. A moist delicious cream cheese pound cake with maraschino cherries and crunchy pecans baked right in.

Old English Fruitcake. Dark and moist with plenty of spices and packed with plenty of sweet glacé fruit. It’s been a Christmas tradition in my family for decades.

Soft Pumpkin Spice Cookies. Tender and delicious pumpkin cookies rolled in pumpkin spice sugar. A perfect fall treat with a cup of tea or a cold glass of milk.
