Easy to Make Christmas Food Gifts for Family and Friends Show them your love with gift that warms the heart — and the tummy. Impress your friends with a snappy and sweet homemade peppermint patty. Pair this gift with a small selection of cheese and crackers for the savory-loving foodie in your life. This is an ideal recipe to make and give if you want to gift a lot as it’s easily scalable.

Give three layers of deliciousness—shortbread, caramel, and chocolate—and make the recipient feel like the fancy person you know they are! Want something a little more dessert-like, but also easier than pie? These white chocolate truffles couldn’t be easier to make. Topped with holly sprinkles, they make for a very cute gift—and they taste as good as they look. Here, the classic sandwich cookie gets a serious upgrade with warming winter spices and a light, fluffy citrus cream.

White chocolate and peppermint combine for a divine DIY Christmas gift that’s sure to delight. Is your recipient a movie fanatic? This homemade, sweet-and-savory coconut curry popcorn seasoning will elevate their next movie night—and you might even score yourself an invite. Homemade cornbread would be enough of a treat all on its own, but here, it’s upgraded with an additional gift: a cast-iron skillet! Orange marmalade served up in a cute jar makes for a delightful spread, and a basket brings all the pieces together.

Smooth, creamy filling perfectly balances out the spiced flavors in our recipe. Dress up the pans with a strip of parchment paper, tinsel, and vintage ornaments. Let it snow this season with sugary edible snowballs. The dainty holiday desserts fit perfectly inside egg cartons for inexpensive gift packaging.
