Christmas Recipes from Mrs Claus's Kitchen

The festive season just wouldn't be the same without good food, and nobody knows Christmas recipes better than Mrs Claus, also known as Mary Moore. In this section, she will be sharing some of her favourite festive dishes, complete with downloadable PDF instructions explaining how you can prepare them yourself.

Before attempting to prepare the food below, readers must take responsibility to carefully review all of the listed foodstuffs before cooking in order to ensure none of the ingredients may cause potential adverse effects to anyone consuming the food. (Adverse effects may include allergies, issues arising due to health-related restricted diets, and/or pregnancy-related effects.) Remember too that while festive food is tasty for humans, it may not be healthy for our companion animals. If in any doubt, please check the ingredients with your veterinarian.

Please take special care if cooking with children. You must supervise and assist the child at all times, and ensure all the necessary protection measures are taken and appropriate clothing is provided. Do not allow small children to handle electrical appliances or use sharp objects. Please take extra care when kids are near hot surfaces and hot equipment.

Eggnog and the Tom & Jerry Cocktail

Eggnog is a famously rich, sweetened and chilled dairy-based beverage which has been enjoyed for centuries during the festive season. Its famous cocktail variant, the Tom and Jerry, has similarly become a traditional Christmas treat in the United States - a special type of eggnog which is served hot, usually in a mug or a bowl. Why not take a look at Mrs Claus's special recipes for these beloved yuletide treats?

Candy Lasses Cookies

Candy lasses are delicious, lightly-spiced cookies with crushed peppermint in the dough, covered with frosting (and more peppermint). Why not check out Mrs Claus's distinctive take on this festive favourite, inspired by a generations-old family recipe?
