Today I am excited to share with you a fun  online magazine that you can enjoy all winter long. Splendidly Homemade Magazine is a beautifully designed magazine filled with great tutorials and pictures showcasing some amazing bloggers crafting and sharing their recipes for a perfect and joy-filled holiday season. You can learn how to do everything from making the perfect pie crust to adding adorable yo-yo embellishments to your holiday attire to creating stockings from old sweaters.

In this issue I have created a fun and easy No-Bake Peppermint Cheesecake in a Jar that would make the perfect hostess gift.  I am also sharing some cute ways to package those jars that make this an elegant gift to share with someone special in your life.

If you want to see this project, just head on over to the magazine to get the scoop. Did I mention that this requires no baking?

Once you are done making these No-Bake Peppermint Cheesecakes, you can put your peppermint extract to work and whip up a delicious Homemade Peppermint Mocha with my easy recipe.

Just be warned…

These are highly addictive and taste like a little bit of heaven.

I had a hard time just eating one or having just one cup of coffee! You can blame me for your holiday weight this year!

    Omg, I LOVE the magazine- I’ve already read through the whole thing! The photos are amazing, as well. I loved the cheesecake recipe, and am thinking they’d make great neighbor gifts as well – and if I thought my son could get them distributed quickly enough at school, I’d make them as teacher gifts!

    Thanks you Amy :)

    Dawn- I am so glad you liked the magazine and that you found some new projects to tackle in it. Yes, those cheesecakes would make delicious teacher gifts. We will also have one more idea for a teacher gift next week that you could pair the cheesecakes with (inexpensive and fast to craft). Happy holidays to your family!
