BonBon's Hot Fudge Sauce
I love the rich flavor of dark chocolate hot fudge sauce. My favorite is Guittard®; however, Hershey's® Dark Chocolate is delicious too.
Cream Cheese Kolacky
Kolacky are delicious cream cheese pastries with a fruit filling. The dough for these cookies is what makes them exceptional. The most popular fillings are peach, apricot, raspberry, and date but you can use whatever you like. This year I'm trying Michigan cherry preserves and cranberry marmalade. I always quadruple this recipe for the holidays. You better hide a few for Christmas day — these are the ones that go first!
Manju (Japanese Sweet Bean Paste Cookies)
These baked manju are filled with koshi an, a smooth paste made of red (azuki) beans and sugar. This recipe uses canned koshi an from the Asian grocery, which saves hours of work.
