Merry Christmas to you and your loved ones!

Wishing you a Christmas filled with joy, good health, and love. May the New Year bring you happiness and new opportunities. Thank you for your continued support of Kouzounas Kitchen. It truly means the world to us!

If you are much like me, I am always at the last minute for Christmas! I ordered my gift cards for some family members and finished baking 2 Spanakopita pies at almost midnight.  If you are looking for last-minute Greek cookie recipes, I have you ready!  Check out this idea for infused peppermint crunch kourambiedes. Here is the recipe for kourambiedes. 

Peppermint Crunch Cookies instructions:

1. Prepare the cookie dough as directed in the recipe, stopping at Step 9 (shaping the cookies into balls).
2. Once shaped, gently press your thumb into the center of each cookie dough ball to create a small indentation.
3. Add ½ teaspoon of Andes peppermint crunch candy into the indentation of each cookie.
4. Fold the edges of the cookie dough over the peppermint center, sealing it completely.
5. Roll the dough gently in your hands to reshape it into a ball.
6. Bake the cookies according to the recipe instructions.

Enjoy!

Happy name day to all who celebrate with us today!
