Holiday Gifts From The Kitchen

By Kate Morgan Jackson

There’s nothing that shows your love quite like a gift from the kitchen that you’ve made with your own two hands.  Here are eight ideas for holiday gifts from the kitchen, along with some suggestions to make these treats extra special!

Gifts From The Kitchen

You can reach each recipe by clicking on the picture or the title.  Happy kitchen gift-giving!

 

Eggnog Fudge!

Eggnog Fudge

This luxurious fudge is filled with the rich tastes of eggnog and nutmeg, and is a perfect treat at the end of a busy holiday.

Wrap it up this way: Arrange it on this pretty plate, then put the plate down on two pieces of plastic wrap that you have arranged in an X shape.  Gather up the ends of the plastic wrap and tie with a ribbon so the fudge is covered.

Make it extra special: Add in a carton of eggnog along with it for the complete eggnog experience!

 

Christmas Tree Fruit and Cheese Platter!

Wrap it up this way: Arrange it on this pretty platter that stays behind as part of the gift.

Make it extra special: Add in a sweet smelling baby Christmas tree plant.

 

Cookie Truffles!
