Christmas Dessert Recipes
The perfect fruit cake recipe for Christmas. It's boozy and fruity, with loads of cherries, currents and raisins.
This decadent dessert is the ultimate comfort food dessert - Spiced bread and butter pudding topped with a salted caramel liqueur sauce.
There’s nothing like a chewy homemade dessert to give a cozy end to a family meal. A twist on a classic pudding. Puréed dates bring a toffee-like flavor to the dish, which is topped off with almonds for a nutty, crunchy addition to this sticky sweet treat.
Indulge in the irresistible allure of our Sticky Cinnamon Buns! Soft, pillowy swirls of dough, generously coated in a gooey cinnamon-infused glaze, promise a decadent treat with each bite. Perfectly sweet, warmly spiced, and luxuriously sticky, these buns are a comforting delight that beckons to be savored, one delicious bite at a time.
If you are thinking of kicking it up a gear this Christmas, this is a a table showstopper! Layers of fudgey pecan brownies, fluffy chocolate mousse and lightly whipped orange blossom Irish cream... Sounds amazing right?
Ultimate winter berry Christmas pudding — winter berries simmered with sweet crème de cassis and layered on Madeira cake, followed by custard whipped with silky mascarpone and lastly topped with softly whipped cream — heaven!
This autumnal treat seems to have fallen out of favour in most restaurants and home kitchens. But I think it’s worth reviving, as these baked beauties take little effort and are eternally comforting when the weather reminds us of the demise of summer.
Fresh Chocolate Truffles dipped in raw coconut flakes; pistachio & cranberries; and the third simply in cocoa powder. SO incredible simple to make. I love serving these instead of dessert followed by a hero farmhouse cheese.
Marsala wine is a must for your pantry as it's so good for poaching fruit, adding a delicious rich sweetness.
I think tiramisu has to be my all-time favourite dessert, and this is my top way to make it. I am not going to give any alternatives because, for me, adding fruit or flother flavours just takes away from this perfect pudding – creamy with thin layers of velvet chocolate and notes of coffee throughout.
Plums are the fruit of autumn! This is so delicious and so much more simple to make than it looks!
This is a true autumnal hero cake, and very simple to do — just weigh, mix and bake. I absolutely love a sticky toffee pudding and this is a little similar, but much lighter. A lovely cup of coffee is the perfect thing to drink with this — you’ll have that cosy autumnal feeling in no time.
For as long as I can remember, every November my mum would make a plum pudding, long enough before Christmas to allow the flavors to strengthen (though you can start it a week before Christmas and still have outstanding results). The Christmas smells would waft through the house, and myself and my brother Jim would start a chorus of carols. Happy plum pudding memories.
In any Irish kitchen there is always a stale piece of soda bread left over in the bread bin, which is a great excuse to make soda bread ice cream. Roasting the bread crumbs with the brown sugar creates little crunch speckles throughout. The Irish cream Liquor adds another depth of coffee and caramel flavour and a silky texture. You can leave this out if you prefer, but it really is delicious.
This orange blossom cake is light, moist and bursting with exotic flavours that will bring you on a tastescape to sunny Marrakesh, and don’t we all need it today!
This delicious cake has a special in-season ingredient, the light taste of parsnip pairs well with ginger and zesty orange.
A festive twist on a Christmas classic. This simple recipe is so easy to make and even more comforting to eat!
Vanilla milk pudding with spiced cranberry coulis is the perfect Christmas dessert, thanks to its festive coulis made from cranberry, ginger and cinnamon!
