I love to indulge my sweet tooth, and the holiday season gives me ample excuse to do just that. Here are five of my favorite holiday-themed treats this Christmas season.

1. White Chocolate Chai Butter Cookies from Grandbaby Cakes

Sort of like Snickerdoodles, but with a twist of browned butter and chai seasoning. Yum!

2. Dreamy Chocolate Chip Mint Smoothie from Sunkissed Kitchen

Okay, this one’s actually pretty healthy while still feeling like an indulgence. The recipe calls it, “A healthy green smoothie that tastes like a milkshake.” If you feel like you need a little break from sugar this holiday season, this one will let you stay festive without the extra calories.

3. Cranberry Butter from CincyShopper

This one only needs four ingredients, and look how pretty it turns out. Love.

4. Chocolate Candy Cane Pretzel Kisses from Sumptuous Spoonfuls

This recipe is extremely easy, yet results in a cute final product that’s perfect for sharing with friends and family. It’s kid-friendly, too, so everyone can participate.

5. Gluten-Free Dutch Apple Pie from Mile-High Mitts

For anyone with gluten sensitivity, this pie is perfect for your holiday baking. It takes a little longer to prepare than the other recipes on this list, but the results are worth it.

If you have any favorite holiday recipes, I’d love to hear about them. Wishing you a warm December full of delicious goodies.
