Holiday Food Gift: Sweet Spice Blend

Giving a gift to guests is a snap–we've done (almost) all the work.|Alyssa Porubcan, Shirley Harrington

End an evening among friends with this memento. We created a six-ingredient Sweet Spice Blend and put it to good use in two delicious recipes. See "Just 4 Steps" below for directions.

Featured Recipes:

• Sweet Spice Blend
• Sugar-and-Spice Nuts
• Honey-Spice Butter

 

JUST 4 STEPS

• Make the spice blend (multiply the recipe by the number of recipients), and divide between small glass jars. Use a funnel to fill narrow-mouthed jars.
• Label each jar using a gift tag; secure tags to jars with decorative ribbon.
• Print out copies of Sugar-and-Spice Nuts and Honey-Spice Butter. Roll up each recipe page and tie with ribbon.
• Arrange jars of Sweet Spice Blend and scrolls of recipes on a table in the entryway so guests can take one on their way out.
