Brb screaming about your mom's peanut butter balls. I think I'll pull a couple more out of the fridge right now... :D
Oh man, I'm a sucker for stuffing.
But give me a turkey, cranberry, & stuffing combo and I'm the happiest camper.

We always get this "Christmas Tree Cake" from the local Swedish bakery where my mother grew up. It's a breakfast dish on Christmas morning, and it's basically this delicious cinnamon roll or coffee cake rolled together into this huge tree with frosting and goodness and a heart attack. But I love it.
Another Holiday Favorite of mine that I just thought off is Peanut Brittle!
🦋 Happy Holidays! 🦋
I LOVE fruitcake. Since I am the only person in my family who will eat the stuff, whoever receives one from a friend or neighbor or co-worker will pass it on to me. I am in fruit cake heaven all season long.
I love stuffing (without raisins, people who add raisins to stuffing or anything are heathens), and both strawberry rhubarb pie and apple pie with ice cream :D
it used to be pigs in blankets, but since i went veggie this year i'm excited to see what all the veggie alternatives are like tomorrow ;v;

At Easter my grandma makes these amazing fist-sized chocolate-covered peanut butter or coconut easter eggs, and puts them in a small basket with that fake grass stuff, and pipes our names in icing on the top with some icing flowers and stuff to decorate it, they're so wonderful. ;u;
For Thanksgiving my family has a huge spread and tbh turkey, dressing, mashed potatoes from scratch, and gravy is like my favorite combo of all time. So so yum.
And at Christmas time we make a ham in the crock pot so that it's really tender and we just pull chunks off of it. u
I love eggnog and it's the only time of year you can get it. That makes it special. :)
My dad used to make the most delicious marinated loin for Christmas.
We make these Christmas cookies where you use devils food chocolate cake mix, and then coat them in powdered sugar before baking. They're my absolute favorite, and I end up baking them every year!
Mince Pies. We always seem to only eat them at Christmas time, and I don't know if it's a UK-only thing or if other countries do so as well. They're small pies filled with "Mincemeat," which is actually lots of dried fruit but also something sticky. They can be eaten hot or cold, and are really nice to have with a hot drink.
