The holiday season is alive with tradition,
and nothing brings a family together faster than baked goods
pulled fresh from the oven. Holiday Baking celebrates
the six major events of the season with new and traditional
holiday treats everyone will love. Vida Lee’s Maple Pumpkin
Pie will be gobbled up at Thanksgiving; there are three variations
of rugelach for Hanukkah; Candy Cane Cupcakes are a minty
delight for Christmas; Sweet Onion, Apple, and Cheese Tarts
enliven a Boxing Day brunch; Brown Sugar Benne Cookies are
perfect for Kwanzaa; and a Bloody Mary and Baked Mushroom
Omelet on New Year’s Day is the ultimate cure for a hangover.
The recipes mix and match easily, whatever the holiday. Whether
the plan calls for old-fashioned favorites or entirely new
inspiration, the eighty-plus festive recipes in this baking
compendium will bring everyone home for the holidays.
