You'll need fresh chestnuts for this cake, so it really is a seasonal delicacy! This cake should be served room temperature, never cold, so when you've just served dinner pull it out of the fridge to warm up. http://www.grouprecipes.com/69177/candied-chestnut-christmas-cake.html Adapted from Anna Olson, these are very much the Christmas cookie - studded throughout with gorgeously bright and clear candied cherries. You can't use maraschinos in syrup for this - look for the dry-packed glace kind. Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks or freeze up to 3 months. http://www.grouprecipes.com/65668/glace-cherry-shortbreads.html Another definite "keeper" recipe given to my mom from my Grandma. She made this a couple times a year, usually between Thanksgiving and Christmas when we had my Grandpa's birthday and family holiday events. The sauce makes this spectacular... don't skip it! http://www.grouprecipes.com/62571/grandmas-gourmet-cranberry-pudding.html In early Atlantic Canada, the "lassy mog" was a classic home-baked treat. Its charming name is derived from the local dialect for the region's widely used sweetener, molasses ("lassy") and a small, low-rising cake ("mog"). I changed the name to Lassy Mays because I left out the requisite dates and pecans. http://www.grouprecipes.com/48737/lassy-mays.html This came from one of my George Brown classmates in exchange for my Soy Awesome Cookies recipe. He noted that this cake should be thinly sliced when served. Makes 3 loaves, 14 slices per serving. http://www.grouprecipes.com/45851/phils-bourbon-christmas-cake.html This is a traditional Norwegian dish that my mother taught me. The Norwegian name for this dish is Risengrynsgroet. It is often served for lunch on Christmas Eve and is a popular family dinner on Saturdays. This recipe gives to generous servings. http://www.grouprecipes.com/40830/norwegian-rice-porridge.html An unorthodox take on traditional eggnog, flavouring the thick blend with honey and a pinch of ground cloves!

They make beautiful cookies http://www.grouprecipes.com/29111/angel-pillows.html A veganized, healthified and scaled-down version of an old Crisco recipe that is great for making cut-outs that are decorated or rolled in cinnamon sugar, and for just plain eating!! http://www.grouprecipes.com/28889/tri---flour-sugar-cookies.html Slightly crispy, deliciously caramel-flavoured and extraordinarily beautiful cut-out sugar cookies, made in a small batch for that special someone, are a hit in any goody basket!
