Stained Glass Window Cookies

1512p151-stained-glass-window-cookies_2


“We found that Jolly Rancher candies produced the brightest, most vibrant “stained glass.” Be sure to use the original sweet candies, not the sour flavors. To crush, place each color in its own heavy-duty zip-top bag; crush with a rolling pin or meat mallet. You’ll find sparkling sugar in craft or specialty stores, but you can also use turbinado sugar as a substitute.”

 

Fudgy Chocolate-Peppermint Cookies

“A great way to use leftover candy canes! When a soft, fudgy cookie meets crunchy candy cane shards, it’s a match made in heaven. ”

 

 

 

Gingerbread People

Double Crust Apple Pie1511p183-double-crust-apple-pie_0

“A double crust seals in the apples’ natural juices as the pie bakes for full-on apple flavor. Tossing the apples with apple juice keeps them from browning as you peel and slice them, and it adds a boost of apple flavor.”

Ginger Pumpkin Pie with Toasted Coconut1111p170-ginger-pumpkin-pie-m

“Ginger and coconut add warm, flavorful accents to this Thanksgiving classic. If you’d like a dollop of something creamy, top with fat-free whipped topping.”

 

 

 

French Apple Tart1111p170-french-apple-tart-m

“The free-form apple tart is mighty easy because it works from a store-bought crust—yet it’s just spectacular, and so evocative of the season.”
