Today I made a list of possible sweets I want to make for Christmas. The first one is a must, because I just love the crunchy feeling in that dessert. Also, it is so easy to do and with no great skills.
How about your list? Is it long, short, easy or difficult?
- Chocolate baklava

- Pear and yogurt tart

- Chocolate Pavlova

- Dessert in a glass

- Hot chocolate

- Raw chocolate truffles

- Baked apples

- Raw cheese cake

As you can see, most of my recipes are with chocolate. For me Christmas without chocolate is dull. I am waiting for your list.
Enjoy!
🙂
Oooh lovely! We always have Christmas cake a family friend makes (she’s a retired wedding cake maker!) Mum does Christmas pudding, mum in law makes trifle and buys mince pies .. then my daughter and I make a chocolate Yule log (choc Swiss roll with rough choc buttercream for bark) so plenty of choice! ☺ thanks for your yummy ideas x
Sounds great!
Thanks… I’ve reblogged yours for my followers to see your yummy ideas xx
It is hard to decide which one to choose because all of them looks delicious. Thanks for sharing!
You are welcome
I favour the pear and yoghurt tart. Besides, I weaned myself off chocolate more than 10 years ago!
Thanks for your awesome list and great ideas! I have only made an old English fruitcake, for my mom and boyfriend, they love that stuff but, I agree with you on chocolate !!! 😀
You are welcome
These look so nice 👍🏻 x
Thank you
They all look great. I am going to make Nigel Slater’s mincemeat cheesecake.
Nice!
Please can you visit me, a little bit like a bakery Santa Claus, and leave all of these treats on my fireplace? Thanks, I promise I have been extra specially good this year and deserve large portions of everything before 2018. 🙂
I wish I could do that.
I haven’t made baked apples for ages – thank you for reminding me!
You are welcome
The Pears and yogurt tart sounds delicious and such a great and light idea after the usually big and heavy Christmas lunches! I’ll give it a go.

Thank you
I was thinking of making decorated sugar cookies actually
Sounds great!
Great list, might have to add some to mine! I’ve still got mince pies, a chocolate yule log and cookies left on my list
Thank you
Wow! Great list, thank you! You’ve got me thinking… mine would have to include, and indeed always does, Nigel Slater’s Clementine Triffle, and now I’m dreaming of your pear and yoghurt tarts and chocolate pavlova!!!!
That Triffle sounds great!
It’s one of the best trifles ever. The sponge is home made, which is more effort but very worth it. It’s a light, buttery moist clementine sponge and that elevates the whole thing above all others, in my view!
This looks lovely
Thank you
They all look incredibly but since my dad is a huge fun of baklava and my mum adores chocolate, I will try the Chocolate baclava first!
Thank you
Thank you YOU! 🙂
First,
Thank you for liking my blogs post on my new WP blog!
I love your list agree with you about chocolate, for me, the darker the better. My mother made baked apples a lot, she added butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon—and I’m sure vanilla extract. I need to do that soon. Great list, Thank you! ~ Rann
You are welcome
Nice variety of desserts. Baked apples are healthy and baklava with our without chocolate is a lovely dessert any time of the year. Thanks for the suggestions.
You are welcome
cool! Love it, and the photos also 🙂
Thank you
I wish I had time to do these… well I’m going to try to find it, because in a well respected bar yesterday for desserts I had a strawberry Magnum with white chocolate… there’s gotta be something better than this!
It is
Your list makes my mouth drool:)
Amazing selection! I love to make date maamoul for any festive occasion.
Nice!
I like individual puddings like your dessert in a glass. I’ve been finding myself wanting to go back to old fashioned decadent cooking, nothing fancy, no frills but don’t know what to do yet……
Thank you
Beautiful!
Thank you
Omg….chocolate baklava…thanks for sharing 🙂
You are welcome
Definitely going to try the chocolate baklava over the holidays – yum!
That chocolate baklava…. yum!
The Raw Cheesecake and Pear Tart both look so amazing!

Reblogged this on Munch Gloriously and commented:
Agreed, Christmas without chocolate is dull, and if anything should have double the chocolate!
Oh my goodness, so many delicious treats to choose from! Thank you so much for sharing your amazing work with us. I will definitely try to make the chocolate baklava! ❤
You are welcome
I’ve made a traditional fruit Christmas cake this year and my mother inlaw is making chocolate fudge yule log and stolen cake. I can not wait! Delicious! 😍
Nice!
Ooooooo, I want that hot chocolate! -Kat

My family always makes traditional Concelle (Molise region of Italy name) aka Pizelles, and Biscotti… I’d love to try the chocolate baklava though, perhaps I’ll add it to my Christmas menu list since I can’t decide what to make for my Fiance and I, as this is our first Christmas away from family, and home 😦 haha .
Thanks for the inspiration 🙂
