Exceptional Edible Gifts You Can Make

Chocolate and peanut is a classic combination beloved by many. My daughter's teachers just go "nuts" over these Chocolate Peanut Clusters. These are easy to make in your crockpot.

Also try your hand at making Chocolate Peanut Butter Fudge or Chocolate Peanut Butter BonBons

I can't say enough how much I love these Ultimate Brownies. They're a cross between a cakey brownie and a fudgy brownie. These are the brownies that the school coaches went nuts over.

Yo​u can also try Boozy Brownies ​or this decadent blondie recipe.
 

If you've got some wannabe bakers on your gift list, cookie ingredients in a jar can be the perfect gift for them. Neatly layer the dry ingredients in a pretty jar, attach a neatly printed recipe and all the recipient needs to provide is the wet ingredients. Besides being tasty, these gifts can be decorative too.

You can also bake entire cakes in canning jars. I've found these cakes have been very popular gifts.​ Check out Canning Jar Cakes.

You just can't go wrong with giving cookies during the holidays. Either purchase one of those cute holiday themed tins or a wicker basket lined with a Christmas napkin to hold the cookies. Some of the cookies I like to give (and get!) are: Rainbow Cookies, Butter Spritz Cookies, Thumbprints, Snickerdoodles (love all of that cinnamon), Macaroons and Classic Chocolate Chip. If you've got a steady hand, these Christmas Light Cookies would make a stunning gift as well. 
 

Bundt Cakes make a great gift. If you have a Nordic Ware Mini Cake Pan or another mini bundt pan, you can easily divide this recipe for Bacardi Rum Cake among your best friends. Browse more favorite bundt cake recipes.
 

Making your own truffles can be a very personal gift. These are so good, they will be hard to give away! Try ​Orange Truffles, Toasted Marshmallow Truffles, Candy Cane Truffles or Champagne Truffles.

For me, Chocolate Peanut Butter Fudge is always a winner as a holiday or anytime gift. These are perfect for neighbors, family, and teachers.
Also try Easy Microwave Fudge,​ Cookie Butter Fudge, or Rocky Road Fudge.

Simple and delicious, these caramel candies are a hit with just about anyone. Whip up a Sea Salt Caramel or try a fun flavor combination like Earl Gray Caramel or Zesty Orange Caramel.

Don't you just love all of the different-sized pans they have these days for baking loaves and muffins? A small loaf of Irish Spice Bread or a basket full of Tangy Lemon Muffins makes a great gift. Browse more muffin recipes here and find more quick bread recipes here.

Something as simple as homemade scones can really be thoughtful and delicious. Take it a step further and include a small jar of homemade flavored butter or other spread.

We love these Cranberry and Orange Scones and these Pumpkin Ginger Scones.
