25 Homemade Gifts to Make Today

شارك:

We’re down to the wire, Friends. Fortunately, there’s (nearly) always time to give the gift of something homemade (unless, of course, you don’t have a kitchen … hmmm).

A few of my favorites are included below, and many more can be found on this Pinterest Board. Wishing you all the happiest of happiest holidays if you don’t hear from me before … not making any promises.

PS: Christmas

Coconut Oil Granola

$0.54 Loaf of Peasant Bread

Salsa di Parmigiano: Made this recently, forgot how unbelievably delicious it is. Make it.

Limoncello

Classic Cream Cheese Cut-outs
Looking for holiday cookies to serve during any type of holiday gathering? These cutout cookies hold their shape when baked, they're sweet, tender, and tasty, and most important, the children love them. More to the point, the children love making them. // alexandracooks.com

Preserved Lemons

Rosemary Shortbread
Careful. These rosemary shortbread cookies are addictive. They've got that sweet-salty dynamic, but also a hint of rosemary, a savory touch that might lead you to eat ten of them, as you would a cracker. Try not to do that. // alexandracooks.com

Vanilla Bean Sables
Sable cookies, which I find completely irresistible, are perfectly sweet, nicely salty, and sandy textured. My family gobbled these up so quickly that I vow to make triple batches of sablés from here on out! // alexandracooks.com

Grand Marnier Chocolate Truffles
Chocolate truffles make a simple dessert, an elegant homemade gift, a festive treat to break out at impromptu gatherings. One batch, which yields at least 3 dozen, can be made days in advance and stored in the fridge. Easy to make and pretty to boot, what's not to love? // alexandracooks.com

Chocolate-Covered Peanut Butter Balls

Rum Balls

Lemon Ricotta Pound Cake
Flavored with orange zest and orange (or almond) liqueur, this incredibly tasty and moist — thanks to a generous amount of ricotta cheese — orange ricotta pound cake is the perfect treat, a particularly nice afternoon snack with a cup of tea, to have on hand this time of year. It would make a lovely gift as well. // alexandracooks.com

Cocoa Crunch
In essence, this cocoa crunch is chocolate granola made without nuts, a mixture of oats, crispy rice cereal, coconut, cocoa, and chocolate, which bake into clusters fit for snacking on their own or drowning in milk, which ultimately turns into chocolate milk, a boon for little ones especially. // alexandracooks.com

Homemade Muesli

Chocolate-Studded Panettone

Nigella Lawson Dense Chocolate Loaf Cake

Favorite Pumpkin Bread

Mrs. Myers Banana Bread (The Best)

Holly’s Babka (or Challah Holla!!)

Brown Butter Blondies with Sea Salt
To me, these brown butter blondies are heaven, a perfect balance of sweet and salty, impossible not to nibble on all day long. The brown butter provides all of the nuttiness and deliciousness promised by its many fans. These are particularly good with a glass of milk, but I can't pretend I haven't enjoyed them aside morning coffee and afternoon tea as well. // alexandracooks.com

Molasses Crinkles

Daley Family Toffee
