There you go, off we go for a ride. We are slowly entering the Christmas period that’s why I wanted to share with you these delicious Christmas jam cookies. In Switzerland, stores have been displaying windows full of Santa Claus figurines for at least a month. Even earlier than last year. We haven’t even seen the Halloween decorations… Cities are starting to light up the streets. My daughter told me “oh look at a star” a month ago. I know it takes a while to install a light bulb, but hey …

End-of-year celebrations to reinvent

This year, these holidays are going to be weird. While each year, I look forward to the end of year celebrations … Switzerland is full of Christmas markets with mulled wine, raclette and pancakes at will. Thursdays turn into a mulled wine race and fine tasting of oysters and foie gras.

And this year… The streets are empty… Nothing, no Christmas market. My birthday promises to be sad… It’s not a coherent strategy knowing that the Christmas markets well… it’s outside… and the mulled wine, it kills germs, right?

Then I tell myself that we shouldn’t be let down, so what better way to make a revolution than to bring out the icing sugar, the gingerbread and the bottles of mulled wine! If it’s not possible to find it in the log cabins, my gosh, I will cook it in my kitchen and it will warm our hearts.

It is important today to be united, because who will or will not catch the covid can still potentially have a nervous breakdown … So in your stove, let’s bake cookies with our children (or without) for our loved ones and our neighbors (or not) and try to live in a world of care bears rather than bitching or moping all day …

Easy and Quick Christmas Cookie Recipes

I discovered jam filled cookies when I arrived in Switzerland. My husband is crazy about it, I like it (but I prefer candied chestnuts). An easy recipe to make with your kids. Christmas cookies aren’t just made of gingerbread! These biscuits with no baking powder will melt in your mouth. Enjoy!
