These Christmas Cupcakes Are All You Need to Have the Sweetest Holiday Ever
For some people, the best part of holiday food is appetizers, main dishes, and sides – all the savory, salty recipes. For others, it's all about sweets. Festive Christmas desserts can range from cakes to cookies to pies to ice cream, but it's delicious cupcakes that arguably the most underrated holiday dessert option. Though they're often ignored for beautifully decorated Christmas cookies, cupcakes are as easy to eat (and transport) as cookies while being as decadent as cake. Plus, a cupcake ensures that you get the very best bite of everything in a cake — delicious filling, light and fluffy cake, and sweet icing. What's more, there are a million different combinations of flavors and decorations to create exactly the type of dessert that you want.
Whether you're baking for an upcoming potluck meal, neighborhood Christmas party, or you're trying to plan an entire Christmas dinner menu for your family and friends, making some cupcakes for everyone is a good idea. No matter how experienced of a baker you are, there are recipes and ideas that will work for any type of occasion. Be warned: Cupcakes go quickly, so make sure to bake extras for all your holiday guests.
