Apple Cranberry Relish

Recipe by: Karen Dunn

Be the first to review it!

This relish has a great flavour, especially with the addition of celery. It goes well on leftover turkey in a sandwich on Boxing Day. Chopped nuts can be added if desired.

These little nibbles feature cherry tomatoes stuffed with a cool mixture of mayo, bacon and spring onion. They look great arranged on a platter of rocket.

Black Forest Trifle

Recipe by: stuartd

Be the first to review it!

I adored black forest gateaux in the 70s and loved trifle so decided I would fuse the two. You can make it all from scratch but also easy to substitute ready made goods if you don't have the inclination. The ingredients are split to enable you to decide at each 'layer'.

Boozy Smooth Ice Cream

Recipe by: SARAHEMM

Be the first to review it!

An incredibly easy way to round off a dinner party - but only if they aren't driving! I like to serve two small scoops in tiny dishes with shortbread, biscotti or amaretti. You can vary this any way you like - try Cointreau or Drambuie (my favourite), or add a few drops of real vanilla extract or some of the vanilla seeds.

Cannellini and Pine Nut Dip

Recipe by: KellyCo

Be the first to review it!

I made this as an alternative to tomato sauce for a pizza topping, but I think it was even better the next day as a dip. The amount of ingredients I used only makes about 250ml, so you may want to double or triple the amounts if making for a party.

Chocolate Orange Truffles

Recipe by: Terry

Reviews(4)

This is a very easy recipe, requiring no sugar thermometer and no sensitive tempering of the chocolate. Make several to give as a homemade food gift or to include in a Christmas hamper.

Christmas chocolate tiffin

Recipe by: tillie

This is a cake that my gran use to make for Christmas. Sadly she is no longer with us, but we now make it ourselves; even my brother makes this at Christmas. It is not very healthy but it's Christmas anyway.

Christmas Pudding Cakey-Treats

Recipe by: aok666

Be the first to review it!

Daft name, I know. I asked my granny (a retired chef) what they actually were and she said they were a kind of truffle (the choccy sweet, not the fungus). I looked up truffles and they are made from cream, sugar and grated chocolate. They are NOTHING like these. I guess Granny was bluffing. So I am going to stick to the daft name above until someone has a better suggestion.

Christmas Pudding Trifle

Recipe by: RedChowDawg

Be the first to review it!

This recipe is a lovely alternative to the standard sponge trifle at Christmas. It is an attractive layered dessert. This recipe uses a shop-bought Christmas pudding and a tub of premium custard. Christmas cake works well too but it is not as moist.

Christmas Rum Balls

Recipe by: Elaine L. Smith

Reviews(2)

It isn't Christmas without these! Make them one year, and you'll find that next year you'll have several requests for more. They make great food gifts and are impressive when entertaining.

The classic - perfect for Christmas morning.

Cranberry Coleslaw

Recipe by: WINNIFRED

Sweet, tart and crunchy, this unusual and colourful coleslaw is enlivened by a combination of cabbage, cranberries and orange slices.

Double cheese bites

Recipe by: Maggie Pannell

Be the first to review it!

Absolutely irresistible, these elegant morsels make perfect pre-dinner canapés. Serve them with drinks before sitting down to the main meal.

Easy Chocolate Truffles

Recipe by: jmackinnell

Be the first to review it!

Insanely easy, but so gorgeously rich! Recipe makes a large amount but you can vary flavourings and coatings to make several different varieties. All the better to give as gifts!

Egg Nog

Recipe by: Denise Goodman

Be the first to review it!

It is speculated that this North American Christmas tradition actually originated in England as a long lost cousin of posset. Serve this luscious combination of milk, cream, eggs and nutmeg with a measure of rum or brandy if desired.

Fig and Olive Tapenade

Recipe by: Anne

Reviews(4)

This is an easy gourmet starter. I often add some chopped green olives to the olive mixture and a little more balsamic. A fresh, rindless goat's cheese may also be used in place of the cream cheese. Serve with slices of toasted baguette or crackers.
