Chicory/Witlof With Gruyere and Ham

I love the distinctive tastes of gruyere cheese, chicory and ham together and regularly make this in the winter as a main course to warm everyone up from top to toe when the rain is lashing down outside and they come in from the cold, … hearty comfort food 🙂 Gruyere cheese gives this recipe a flavour all of its own. Enjoy!

Coconut Kisses (“kokosbusserl”)

These small delicacies are rich, moist and full of flavour. And so simple. A traditional Austrian Christmas speciality absolutely worthy of being an all-year- rounder.

Mandelkränzchen (Almond Wreaths)

This old recipe is from my grandmother’s recipe box. I’m not sure where she got it. I do remember eating them at her house during christmas past. My sister and I would use one finger each in the center hole and try and tear the cookie apart kind of like a wishbone. Who ever got the bigger section won and, of course, we each would keep winning and that meant eating more cookies. The time does not include overnight in the refridgerator.

Hot Chocolate With Peppermint

Ive been so cold lately and was searching for something minty and chocolatey. This one from a local news show warms you from the inside out and rivals a hot chocolate that I once had in Austria. Yummy! Makes 2 large portions or 4 normal sized ones.
