If watching Buzzfeed Tasty videos for hours on end is one of your top talents, keep reading; we’ve compiled eight of its most popular holiday dessert videos ( cookies included). Now that you’re on holiday vacation mode and actually have time to bake, we propose a challenge. Instead of drooling over these vids, tagging your friends, and very hungrily closing your browser as per usual, whip one up. (And you should probably invite us over too, because it’s the season of giving and we really like dessert.)
Homemade Apple Cider and Apple Cider Cupcakes: These cider-spiked, cream-cheese-frosted cupcakes are made extra-moist with an unexpected touch of olive oil.
Pumpkin Pie Bread Pudding: Bread pudding may technically classify as dessert, but no one would protest if you served a tray of these pillowy brioche cubes, soaked in a creamy pumpkin-spice mixture and baked until golden brown, for breakfast on Christmas morning.
Holiday Sheet Pan Cheesecake Bars: Cheesecake bars mean you can make four different flavors even if you own zero pie pans. Make a base of buttery graham cracker crust on a big ol’ sheet pan and break into sections with extra crackers. The creamy possibilities are endless.
The 5 Best Classic Cookie Recipes: Not in the mood for culinary surprises after all that gift shopping? Here are five tried-and-true cookies you can count on, like chewy chocolate chip, snickerdoodle, and brownie fudge.
Candy Bark 4 Ways: Need to give a small gift but can’t deal with the mall? Make chocolate bark with crushed candy canes, s’mores fixings, Oreos, or caramel-covered crackers.
8 Dessert Recipes for Holiday Parties: Bring salted s’mores truffles, caramel cracker candy, and cinnamon sugar cheesecake bars to your next festive gathering, and observe with pride as they disappear in minutes.
5 Tasty Gingerbread Treats: With easy recipes for gingersnap-dusted chocolate truffles, bite-size gingerbread cheesecakes and, of course, gingerbread cookies, consider this video a crash course in the delicious capabilities of gingerbread.
Holiday Party Essentials: Holiday-party hosts don’t need to spend hours cooking complicated sit-down dinners. Make a big batch of spiced wine punch to serve with help-yourself foods like chocolate-covered strawberries and a veggie platter. You’ll impress with little stress.
