I used flour tortilla's you buy uncooked and prepare at home. The results are incredible!! The flour tortillas add a light fluffy crunchy texture that goes perfectly with the sweet but tart lemon ricotta filling. … [Read more...]

Eggnog Sugar Cookie Bars
Eggnog Sugar Cookie Bars are a fun switch from normal sugar cookies. They're so fun with PEEPS® Marshmallow toppers! We put our tree up over the weekend. Kind of in a hurry because we had been out of town all week visiting my family in Utah. My husband got called to Wyoming on Thanksgiving day but held them off until Saturday. We got home, instantly put the tree up and the lights on and then Lance left for WY. I needed his help to that point and then the kids and I did the rest. Christmas is … [Read more...]
Eggnog Donuts
Eggnog Donuts have that delicious flavor that is so loved this time of year! These donuts couldn't be any easier to make. Who's ready to start their holiday baking and neighbor gifting?

Big batches of Christmas cookies, fudge or other edible Christmas gifts are what I lean towards. I love the non-food gifts but that can add up when gifting over 30 families. … [Read more...]

Eggnog Rice Pudding
Eggnog Rice Pudding is a holiday version of the classic comfort treat. Served up warm or cold, it tastes perfectly delicious. I only recently discovered my love for rice pudding. I never liked the stuff and it was weird to me to be eating a sweet dish with rice in it. Rice always meant savory in my mind. Then I saw it at a restaurant and thought that it actually looked good. Like really good. So I decided to try it. Oh.my.word. Why hadn't I been eating rice pudding this whole time? It was … [Read more...]
