Edible Gifts for Everyone On Your List
Checking off your gift list doesn’t have to mean long, budget-busting trips to the mall. Instead, spread the joy with one-of-a-kind, edible DIY goodies, kissed with personalized flair. Make a batch of one – or all four – of these recipes and wrap them individually to give as stocking stuffers, Hanukkah presents and host/hostess gifts, or mix and match to create thoughtful, custom-made gift baskets that are as much fun to make as they are to receive.

Hot tips for cleaned-up gift giving:
- Swap out all-purpose flour for higher-fiber, higher-protein whole-wheat, whole-grain spelt or quinoa flour.
- Opt for unsweetened or naturally sweetened ingredients, like coconut flakes or dried cranberries, instead of sweetened ones.
- Choose unsalted ingredients over salted ones, like nuts or pretzels.
