’Tis the season—for parties! And that means it’s time to think recipes, especially fun Christmas treat ideas that give people something to talk about. This year, our festive feast of fun food includes seven easy Christmas treats, both savory and sweet: Christmas meringue cookies, snowflake wands, strawberry Santas, mini sausage wreaths, snow-nuts, a snowman cheese ball and playful penguin ice cream pops. Merry Christmas!
