RUSSIAN TEA CAKES
There's no feeling quite as blissful as your first bite of one of these cookies. Whether you call them Russian tea cakes, Mexican wedding cookies or snowballs, there's no denying that they're essential to bake during the Christmas season. A shortbread-like dough, studded with chopped nuts, bakes up to a texture that's beautifully sandy and tender, never dry or crumbling to bits. The classic finish for them is a roll through powdered sugar-just like dashing through the winter snow! Make this recipe and you'll be part of a legacy of bakers who have made Russian Tea Cakes one of the most anticipated treats of the season.

- Russian Chocolate Salami. As far as no-bake treats go, this has to be one of my favorites. I have a deep love for a good cheese board with a variety of meats and cheeses.
- Bird’s Milk Cake. Using sour cream as the main ingredient had me a little skeptical, but this cake is delicious. With a light, thin, sweet milk-soaked cake as a base, the sour cream filling is smooth with just the right amount of sweet and sour.
- Russian Fudge. There aren’t too many steps for this five-ingredient fudge. You’ll need a large microwave-safe bowl and some oven-mitts close by. Mix the sugar, butter, golden syrup, and condensed milk and microwave for two minutes.
- Kartoshka. Kartoshka are essentially Russian cake pops. Made using cookie crumbs and condensed milk, they’re so simple yet so delicious. This recipe also uses butter, cocoa, and a little cognac, along with some chopped nuts for added flavor.
- Russian Apple Cake. You might think that five ingredients aren’t enough to make a wonderfully moist and flavorful cake. This recipe proves us all wrong.
- Russian Tea Cakes. In the U.K., tea cakes are soft sweet buns, often spiced and dotted with dried fruit. In Russia, they’re baked shortbread balls that get rolled in powdered sugar.
- Russian Royal Cake. As the name would suggest, this cake is both elegant and regal looking. Royal cake has layers of sour cream sponge cakes. It’s flavored with poppy seeds, chopped nuts, chocolate, cherry, and chocolate chips.
- Russian Tea. During the winter months, I crave hot drinks. Just looking outside gives me the chills. But there’s only so much coffee my nerves can handle.
- Russian Blini (Crepes) A crepe by any other name still tastes just as sweet. To be honest, there’s isn’t much difference between this recipe and a traditional crepe.
- Waffle Cake. If you’ve never seen a Russian palace, they’re over-the-top, colorful, and full of bling. In a cold climate like they have, it’s no wonder they like to add color wherever they can.
