Jam-filled sandwich cookies
For something that will jazz up your cookie tray, make jam-filled sandwich cookies for loved ones this year. Once you’ve prepared the dough and let it chill for at least two hours, bake these round treats. Filling them with jam (try a variety of flavors to spice things up) and dusting them with confectioners’ sugar is all that’s left to do. You’ll be amazed at how simple these elegant homemade gifts look once they’re done.
Chocolate-peppermint Bundt cake
Who says that homemade edible gifts have to be cookies? Our chocolate peppermint Bundt cake is easy to prepare and makes an excellent stand-alone present for friends and family with a sweet tooth. It’s moist, rich and best of all, looks great delivered in a cake box with a see-through window.
