1. Preheat oven to 450°. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Cut mozzarella sticks into 1” pieces and set aside.
2. On a floured surface, divide pizza dough into two pieces. Stretch and roll each piece of dough into a long rectangle, then cut dough into 2” squares (you’ll need 33 total).
3. Wrap a dough square around each piece of mozzarella, forming a tightly sealed ball. Place balls seam-side down on the baking sheet in the shape of a Christmas tree (they should be touching). Brush egg wash on dough balls and bake until golden, 15 to 20 minutes.

Ingredients

• 800 grams white chocolate
• 250 grams unsalted butter

• 🍡🍭🍬🍫🍡🍭🍬🍫🍡🍭🍬🍫🍡🍭🍬🍫🍡🍭🍬🍫

Let's get Cooking...

1. Place the white chocolate, butter and corn syrup in a pot over medium-low heat. Stir consistently until completely melted. Don't worry if the chocolate and butter have separated.
2. Remove from the heat, and stir the mixture with a spatula or a whisk until the chocolate and butter have fully combined. Add the peppermint extract and allow to cool slightly. Add the macadamia nuts, Christmas-coloured candiesand marshmallows and mix until just combined. Pour the mixture into a square aluminum container, and sprinkle some extra candies and cute icing decorations (mine look like candy canes and gingerbread men) on top. Cover with aluminum foil and place this in the freezer until set.
3. Slice the rocky road into bite-sized squares, and you're done! Note: Beware, you will eat this so quickly without realizing it - this is probably the most addictive dessert I've ever made! It's SO good!

🧀🍳🥘🧀🍳🥘🧀🍳🥘🧀🍳🥘🧀🍳🥘🧀

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1/4 cup diced red bell pepper
• 1/4 cup diced green bell pepper
• 4 large eggs, lightly beaten
• Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
• 1 (16-ounce) tube refrigerated buttermilk biscuits

DIRECTIONS:

1. Preheat a waffle iron to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the top and bottom of the waffle iron or coat with nonstick spray.

CHRISTMAS SOUP

🌰🥔🍷🌰🥔🍷🌰🥔🍷🌰🥔🍷🌰🥔🍷🌰🥔🍷🌰🥔🍷🌰🥔🍷🌰🥔🍷🌰🥔🍷🌰🥔
Serves 6

SOFTWARE

1. 1 pound kielbasa, sliced 1/4-inch thick, on the bias
2. Vegetable oil, as needed
3. 8 cloves garlic, minced
4. 1 pound dried red kidney beans, soaked for at least 4 hours or overnight
5. 2 quarts chicken broth
6. 1 pound red potatoes, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
7. 6 ounces fresh kale, washed, rinsed and torn into 1-inch pieces
8. 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
9. 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
10. 
    

PROCEDURE

1. Brown the kielbasa in a 7-quart Dutch oven and set over medium-low heat until it has rendered most of its fat, about 15 minutes. Remove the kielbasa from the pot and set aside. If you do not have a least 2 teaspoons of fat, add enough vegetable oil to make 2 teaspoons.
2. Cook the garlic in the fat for 1 to 2 minutes, stirring constantly to prevent the garlic from burning. Add the beans and chicken broth and cook, covered, for 45 minutes. After 45 minutes, stir in the potatoes, cover and cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3. Toss the kale into the pot, cover and cook for an additional 10 minutes, or just until it is tender, but not mushy.
4. Sprinkle with the vinegar and pepper and stir to combine. Return the kielbasa to the pot and cook just until heated through. Taste and adjust seasoning. Serve hot.
