  8. I made the Strawberry Santas last year for our family's gathering. My brother, who is 35 and minimally practicing his faith, absolutely loved them. It gave me a chance to talk a bit about St. Nicholas and reintroduce the "Reason" for Christmas. He specifically requested a repeat appearance of the Santas this year. Thanks Catholic Cuisine for providing tools/a great medium to evangelize. May you have a blessed Advent and joy-filled Christmas!

  23. Ooh, what a pretty apron! Perfect for all that Christmas baking!

    My great-grandmother used to make a delicious recipe for no-bake cookies, called "Christmas Jewels". They are ball-shaped chocolate-orange cookies, with red and green crystal sprinkles to make them sparkle like jewels! So beautiful, and sooooo delish! : )

  33. Taralli--Italian cookies--hand-shaped cookies that are baked then iced and covered with sprinkles and non-pariels. These are what I grew up with, but the traditional cookie is boiled and baked like a pretzel, then served with wine for dipping. I'll make those some day.

  34. Years ago we found a recipe for Tennessee stack cake. It is the perfect example of something that sounds weird and tastes amazing. It's a cake with many layers baked on sheet pans - very similar to sugar cookies; homemade apple-butter is spread between the layers, it's dusted with powdered sugar and then covered with a tea towel for a day. So amazing and beautiful too. It's now a family tradition.
