Hanukkah Desserts

There are plenty of desserts to make for Hanukkah. Here are a couple to try:

Have you ever wanted to make your own chocolate gelt? This homemade gelt uses gold lister dust painted on the chocolate to imitate the gold wrapper.

Sufganiyot are deep fried Israeli doughnuts. They are perfect as a breakfast or dessert during Hanukkah. Try the recipe from Martha Stewart. Rugelach is another traditional recipe that contains fruit and nuts to make a delicious dessert.

Kraft has a recipe for sugar cookies that contains cream cheese. Land o Lakes has a recipe for classic cookie cutter cookies.

Yellow and White Field of Daisies Mini Journal

This Yellow and White Field of Daisies Mini Journal from my shop is perfect as a small gift or carrying around in your purse. It uses a yellow and white decorative paper with daisies. It is bound together with yellow thread using the coptic stitch method

It is inspired by fields of daisies such as in this photo:

I am working on a full size journal using the same decorative paper and thread. I have made the covers, but haven't finished binding the book together yet.
