American
Gingerbread Spritz Cookies
These Gingerbread Spritz Cookies are soft, chewy, and full of warm holiday spices. Unlike traditional spritz cookies that are crisp, this version has a tender bite thanks to molasses and brown sugar—perfect for decorating or enjoying just as they are.
Italian
Almond Spritz Cookies
These buttery Almond Spritz Cookies are a festive, delicate treat with a tender crumb and a hint of almond flavor in every bite. Made with a blend of silky 00 flour and almond flour, they're light yet rich, perfect for pressing or piping into intricate shapes. Finished with sparkling sugar or a drizzle of amaretto-spiked icing, these cookies are as beautiful as they are delicious. Ideal for holiday trays, tea parties, or everyday indulgence—this classic cookie is a crowd-pleaser that melts in your mouth.
Mediterranean
Baba Ghanoush
Baba Ghanoush is a smoky, creamy eggplant dip with roots in the Eastern Mediterranean. Traditionally made by charring whole eggplants and blending the flesh with tahini, lemon juice, garlic, and olive oil, it's rich, savory, and perfect for mezze platters or casual snacking with warm pita and fresh vegetables.
