Good morning. Just the CSPS Girl jumping in here with a little coffee cake recipe, in case you are looking for a quick baked-good that you can make the day before. Can be served at room temperature or warmed a bit, for breakfast or for afternoon tea, this Cranberry Orange Coffee Cake with Pecan Streusel is delicious. Don’t have fresh berries? Frozen will do just great in this recipe (keep the berries frozen when you put into the batter) and you can even swap out the cranberries for blueberries or raspberries. Enjoy!

Salted Honey Almond Fudge and White Chocolate Cranberry Pistachio Fudge
As is my usual routine in December, I try to make some homemade chocolates or fudge as presents for Christmas. This year, I decided to go with some salted honey almond and some white chocolate with cranberry and pistachios. I’d never made white chocolate fudge before, but it turned out nice and vanilla-y. Definitely a treat!
Sauce”. I like to experiment with different sauces and chutneys to accompany the big turkey on the day. This year, I made the chutney variation a little earlier than usual, while I still had time. So here you go: Cranberry Black Currant Apple and Ginger Chutney. It’s very hearty and a little different than your standard “out of the can” or “recipe on the back of the cranberry bag” but I think that it is really lovely.
My mom often asks me to make a “German” apple pie. Well, as the expression goes, that ain’t as easy as apple pie! Just like “American” apple pie has about a million variations, so does any other regional variation. What I think my mom means is this custard pie, which is one variation. It’s lovely. Not too sweet, creamy and lush. I used pink lady apples, which hold their shape and stay crisp throughout baking. Quite lovely.
