I get so many compliments and requests for the recipe. I up the sugar in the glaze and the alcohol too. I've used it with rum and a macadamia nut liqueur </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-christmas-dessert-recipes#post-2395128 Sun, 20 Dec 2015 16:29:18 +0000 travellingbee 2395128@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My MIL makes a wonderful Rum Cake. I don't have the recipe but it seems so festive for Christmas. I'm sure you could find one online. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-christmas-dessert-recipes#post-2395119 Sun, 20 Dec 2015 16:00:44 +0000 mrs.shinerbock 2395119@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We always make a berry trifle. Layer pound cake (we use Sara Lee) sprinkled with sherry, mixed berries, and a custard sauce. Top with whipped cream. In a tall glass dish, it really makes a beautiful presentation and it is delicious.</p> <p>Here is a recipe for a similar custard sauce: <a href="http://www.marthastewart.com/340405/vanilla-custard-sauce" rel="nofollow">http://www.marthastewart.com/340405/vanilla-custard-sauce</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-christmas-dessert-recipes#post-2394771 Sat, 19 Dec 2015 19:45:18 +0000 Mrs. Turtle 2394771@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Crystal: Yeah, Smitten Kitchen is pretty dependable. I'm sure the peaches are great too, I just prefer apples. She also has some dark chocolate souffle cupcakes with mint white chocolate whipped cream frosting. Those are SPECTACULAR. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-christmas-dessert-recipes#post-2394770 Sat, 19 Dec 2015 19:42:12 +0000 Crystal 2394770@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnleaves: ohhhh, that looks delicious!</p> <p>@Mrs. Turtle: what a smart change! Apples would be delicious in that!</p> <p>Thanks, ladies. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-christmas-dessert-recipes#post-2394708 Sat, 19 Dec 2015 16:57:40 +0000 Mrs. Turtle 2394708@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Also, this. Pretty spicy but for those that like gingerbread this is my favorite. Plus its easy and looks pretty. </p> <p><a href="http://smittenkitchen.com/blog/2008/12/gramercy-taverns-gingerbread/" rel="nofollow">http://smittenkitchen.com/blog/2008/12/gramercy-taverns-gingerbread/</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/favorite-christmas-dessert-recipes#post-2394707 Sat, 19 Dec 2015 16:55:56 +0000 Mrs. Turtle 2394707@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p><a href="https://blueberriesandbasil.wordpress.com/2013/08/05/smitten-kitchens-peach-dumplings-with-bourbon-hard-sauce/" rel="nofollow">https://blueberriesandbasil.wordpress.com/2013/08/05/smitten-kitchens-peach-dumplings-with-bourbon-hard-sauce/</a><br /> But I make these with apples.
