Poinsettias are America’s favorite Christmas ornamental plant.
Thumbprints
The holidays are definitely a time for indulgence and these classic thumbprints provide… but by tweaking a few of the ingredients, including use of whole wheat pastry flour, indulgences just got a little healthier.
Cornmeal Cookies
Not too sweet but oh, so crunchy, these treats have a delightfully gritty texture and are the perfect accompaniment to a scoop of sorbet or ice cream.
Naturally Sweet Applesauce
Naturally sweet apples make the best applesauce so look for varieties like Winesap, Gala, Fuji, Macintosh or Yellow Delicious.
Potato Latkes
For the crispiest, most tender latkes, use starchy potatoes like russets or Idaho.
German Stollen
Although a fruitcake, don’t confuse sweet and tender stollen with traditional rum soaked versions.
