I make 250 normally tarts for my relations however now I am wanting to make a change from that this year. Does anyone have ideas on what I could make? something that is possible to post would be great and something that does not take for ever to make!
Many thanks in advanced

Hi, I like the idea of Truffles! I wonder how I get that many broken biscuits from!!! Its my way of showing the love to all my cousins etc I don't get to see them often some have not seen for 5years but I still respect they are family and with all this earthquake business in ChCh they have been sending us baking and also a voucher to spend a night away in the north island and another cousin sent airplace tickets - so much love I must not let this year pass by!

What a wonderful idea I could do that myself but would be wanting something christmas themed really as truffles can be just any time sort of thing I guess. I would not have the time to make the tarts and anyway someone else does these in the family! I would be looking at making 120 of what ever and put them in little boxes and giftwrap cutie!!

Make yo-yo's from Edmonds book, but add a few chopped green or red glazed cherries (or both) to mixture. Join together with pink icing

Add some chopped cherries to truffles, and maybe make them look like little Christmas Puddings, as mallowpuff biscuits are sometimes decorated.. dip the shaped truffle into melted chocolate, and place on baking paper to set.
Use some melted white chocolate to place a small amount on the top of the truffle - to look like snow.. then place a glace cherry half or a red pebble/smarties lolly on that.. = Christmas truffles..

I just made some plum pudding truffles with melted white chocolate on top they look really cool, instead on cherries on top i used cut up red and green soft lollies, they look and taste great.
Its a great base and you can just add to it what you like.

Make truffles, roll into small balls, chill, dip into milk/dark choccy then when set pour a little melted white choccy on the top and top with bits of red and green cherries.They look like mini christmas puddings. Yummy :-)
