Christmas desserts: sweet things to celebrate | BRIGITTE.de

Christmas dessert – which one would you like?

It is well known that gingerbread, speculoos, cinnamon and marzipan should not be missing at Christmas time. But we don't want to miss out on sweet delicacies on the holidays themselves either – or can you imagine a Christmas menu without dessert? For us, Christmas desserts are just as much a part of the festival as the Christmas tree. After an opulent menu, however, it can also be a light Christmas dessert that can be easily prepared with the help of a recipe. Our favorites? Tiramisu, panna cotta and chocolate mousse! Or how about a recipe for parfait or a fresh fruit salad with cardamom for dessert? A portion of it has relatively few calories (kcal.), Is made in a few minutes (min.) And can be nibbled without remorse. If you like fruit, you will also love our raspberry and lychee compote with white chocolate sauce, which becomes the highlight of every Christmas meal with the combination of compote and sauce.

Christmas desserts: well prepared – served quickly

Important for a Christmas dessert: It must be easy to prepare. After all, who wants to think about dessert all the time during Christmas dinner? Recipes for desserts in a glass are ideal because they can be easily prepared in small portions the day before. They can hold out in the fridge until Christmas dinner – and you can concentrate fully on roast goose and Co. in the kitchen. Our favorites: the chocolate-nut pudding in a jar and the chocolate-mocha-vanilla flammeri with Amarena.

Also easy to prepare in a few minutes and a really tasty alternative to classic Christmas desserts: Christmas cake. Bake, let cool and serve your amazed guests after the festive meal. Our Breton cake with baked fruit sauce is an exception: it tastes best when the cake is still lukewarm. Another guarantee of success: chocolate and cinnamon tartlets with passion fruit and mandarins. With the fruity cream, the small tart is the absolute highlight of the Christmas dinner!

Christmas desserts are the icing on the cake of the menu

But if you are one of those chefs who want to top off their holiday menu with dessert and really want to show off again, then the wow factor is of course much more important than quick preparation. Baked apples with almond shortbread filling are such an example of a dessert that is prepared to the point. It's best to put the baked apple in the oven while you're eating the Christmas roast. You just have to remember the time over all the feasting, because the baked apple is ready in a few minutes!
