Recipe Roundup: Holiday Recipes

December 7, 2012 by Julie 64 Comments

Recipe Roundups are a monthly feature that began on Peanut Butter Fingers last year as a way for me to highlight past PBF recipes that may have fallen to the wayside over the course of my three years of blogging.

This month’s recipe roundup was a fun one to put together since I am in love with fun and festive holiday recipes.

    I saw those reindeer cupcakes on Pinterest last week and I’ve been thinking about them ever since! I’m in charge of dessert for our Christmas Eve celebration and I’ve been debating going simple with a plate of cookies or going a bit more complicated with cute cupcakes or brownies.

    The chocolate peppermint pudding cookies sound delicious and when I read your post about the popcorn I was cracking up…we call our son Charlie Brown sometimes (long story). Hopefully I will never need to nickname him any characters in the Hangover! Anyway, I can’t wait to try them both.

    I always make the white chocolate christmas pretzels with hersheys kisses instead of using the chocolate wafer. Wafers seem like they would be a lot faster than unwrapping the kisses though! Great recipes. May have to try out the peppermint bark soon
