 Are you looking for an easy Christmas cookie recipe?

Look no further because these Rudolph’s Nose Christmas cookies are quick, easy, and delicious. They are my go-to when making Christmas cookies with my nieces. 

My friend Stephanie brought these over during the holidays once and we all loved them. When I asked her for the recipe, I couldn’t believe how easy they were to make. I love cake box recipes because they are always easy recipes to make.

Rudolph’s Nose Christmas Cookies

Ingredients:

1 box (18.25 oz) Devil’s food cake mix

1/2 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 cup butter or margarine, melted

1 egg

Vanilla frosting (about 1/2 tub per batch)

Maraschino cherries (no stems)

Directions:

Mix the first four ingredients into a stiff dough. (Dough dries quickly and then is hard to roll–add a little oil to help with the dry-out factor, if needed.

Roll the dough into 1-inch balls. Press an indentation into a ball (with the round end of a wooden spoon or something like that).

Place 2 inches apart on a greased baking sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 10-11 minutes. If dough is puffed, use the end of a wooden spoon to recreate indentation.

Cool for one minute. Remove from pan and continue to cool. Spread frosting into the indention (or apply with star-tipped pastry bag). Top with a cherry.

Making Memories, One Batch at a Time

It doesn’t matter if you’re an experienced baker or just starting out — these Candy Cane Bars are a sweet holiday win. The scent of peppermint and butter baking together will fill your kitchen with nostalgia, and the first bite — soft, buttery, pepperminty — might just become a new holiday tradition. I love imagining these bars on Christmas morning, alongside stockings and twinkling lights, or at a cozy get-together with friends and family.

So tie on your apron, preheat the oven, and let the holiday magic begin. Because sometimes, dessert isn’t just dessert — it’s a little bit of joy.

Do you need to use up your leftover turkey. Make this apple turkey soup with it! This is an easy crockpot recipe and super delicious.

Are you wondering what to do with all that leftover turkey?

I’ve tried many different ways to use up leftover turkey over the years. One year I used turkey instead in my spicy chicken spaghetti recipe and another year I used leftover turkey in my White Chicken Chili recipe. 

This year my suggestion is to make some soup in your crockpot with it. It’s easy to make and oh-so good. Plus, you will use up other food items leftover from Thanksgiving like gravy, apples, corn, carrots, and onions. 

Leftover Turkey Soup – Crockpot Recipe

Ingredients:

2 C apple juice
1 can chicken stock
½ C diced peeled apples
1 can peas, drained and rinsed
1 can sliced carrots, drained and rinsed
1 can corn, drained and rinsed
½ Spanish onion, diced
1/ 2 jar of turkey gravy
2 tsp ginger
salt and pepper to taste
2 C cooked turkey, shredded
1 package Rotteli pasta
Olive oil spray

Bread bowls

Directions: 

Spray your crockpot with olive oil spray. Add the apple juice and chicken stock to the crockpot. Turn the crockpot on medium heat and continue to add the ingredients (except the pasta). Stir the ingredients to blend the ingredients together. Heat for 5 hours. Add the pasta, stirring to mix well and cook for an additional hour. Before serving the soup, spoon it into each bread bowl. (Or just a regular bowl and serve with some bread!)

Forget store-bought jars. Once you whip this up in your own kitchen, chips and salsa night will never be the same.

Why This Salsa Verde Recipe Works

This salsa verde hits all the right notes:

• Tomatillos give it that signature tangy flavor.
• Jalapeños bring the heat (adjustable depending on how brave you are).
• Fresh cilantro and lime add brightness.
• Sweet pineapple balances everything with a touch of tropical sweetness.
• A splash of honey ties it all together without making it sugary.

It’s bold, it’s fresh, and it pairs perfectly with tortilla chips, tacos, grilled chicken, or even spooned over eggs in the morning if you’re feeling extra.

Ingredients You’ll Need

• 8–9 tomatillos, husks removed, rinsed, and boiled
• 1–2 fresh jalapeños, seeds removed (keep some seeds in if you like it hot)
• 1 clove garlic
• 1 handful fresh cilantro
• 1 medium sweet onion, cut into chunks
• 4–6 oz ripe pineapple, cored and cut into chunks
• 2 Tbsp lime juice
• 1 tsp salt (or more, to taste)
• 1 tsp honey

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Boil the tomatillos
   Start by boiling the tomatillos until they soften and turn a dull green. This usually takes 5–7 minutes. Drain and let them cool slightly. (You can also boil the onions and jalapenos.)
2. Break them down
   Toss the tomatillos into a food processor and pulse a few times until they’re just starting to break apart.
3. Add the flavor crew
   Add the jalapeños, garlic, cilantro, onion, pineapple, lime juice, salt, and honey.
4. Pulse to perfection
   Blend until you hit your desired consistency. Some people like their salsa silky smooth, while others prefer a little chunky texture. You do you.
5. Taste and adjust
   Need more heat? Add another jalapeño. Too tangy? A drizzle more honey will mellow it out. Too hot, add lime.

How to Serve Abuelo’s Salsa Verde

• Classic: With a big bowl of tortilla chips.
• Tacos: Drizzle it over carnitas or tacos.
• Breakfast: On scrambled eggs, huevos rancheros, or even avocado toast.
• Dinner Upgrade: Use it as a marinade for grilled shrimp or chicken.

Storage Tips

Homemade salsa verde should be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It will last about 5–7 days (if it doesn’t disappear sooner). Pro tip: The flavors get even better the next day, so try to make it ahead if you’re serving it for a party.

Final Thoughts

Abuelo’s salsa verde may be famous, but now you can bring that restaurant flavor home—with a little tropical twist that makes it unforgettable. Whether you’re serving it at game night, taco Tuesday, or just because you bought way too many tomatillos at the market, this recipe is a guaranteed crowd-pleaser.

So grab your chips and get dipping.
