Easy Christmas Dessert Recipes
Christmas is one of the most wonderful times of the year, and one of my favorites too. My favorite part about Christmas is the Christmas treat recipes!
I love making cookies for Santa, cakes for Christmas dinner, and other fun desserts to snack on throughout the season.
They all just make Christmas so festive and have the holiday spirit in every bite! Try these holiday desserts for your next holiday party or family dinner.
We love to splurge on cute Christmas desserts and making them even more decadent by adding whipped cream, ice cream, cream cheese frosting and more!
Spread holiday cheer with a festive Christmas dessert everyone will love.
Whether you like traditional and easy Christmas desserts or fun and whimsical Christmas treats recipes, there is something for everyone to enjoy.
I love old classics but I also like try new recipes too. Typically, my dessert list for the holidays is a mix of old and new favorites.
I do have a tip for you. A ton of these recipes use Christmas M&M’s. It can get pricey buying small bags as it adds up quickly.
I buy a big bag on Amazon and keep them ready this time of year. Saves me money and time!
