Desserts that bring the party, but not the fuss

By Alison Roman, The New York Times Cookies have always had a monopoly on holiday desserts, which is great if youre into cookies. But in my opinion, tiny, delicate, ornamental desserts are a touch anticlimactic at the end of a holiday meal. For cocktail parties and giftable tins, of course, roll and bake to your hearts content. But after a giant ham, Im looking for something that shouts celebratory abundance! Something that encourages a mix of intimacy and bacchanalian behavior.

Here are four holiday desserts that...

Smoky Savory Fire Crackers.

One more snack to make before Christmas comes fire crackers! These cuties are embarrassingly easy, super addictive, taste incredible and you basically need them in your life. I LOVE THEM. When we went to Rosemary Beach a few months ago for Lacys bachelorette party, we stumbled upon a farmers market that Saturday morning.

That sounded so unappealing...
