23 TRADITIONAL JEWISH DESSERTS - INSANELY GOOD RECIPES

  • Chocolate Babka. Babka is a yeast-based dough traditionally braided and has a sweet filling, such as chocolate or cinnamon. I happen to think chocolate babka is dangerously addictive, so I don’t make it too often.
  • Lekach (Honey Cake) This sticky-sweet cake is mainly made to celebrate Rosh Hashanah, and it’s best when you make it in advance so the flavors can mature.
  • 5-Ingredient Chewy Coconut Macaroons. Coconut macaroons are such a fun and simple little treat. They need just five ingredients and are gluten-free! After whipping the egg whites to stiff peaks, you’ll very gently stir through some honey, vanilla, shredded coconut, and salt.
  • Apricot Hamantaschen. These hat-shaped Purim cookies are a staple in my house during the holidays. I love the buttery shortbread and the cute little package it turns into with the jam.
  • Mandel Bread. Much like biscotti, these cookies are crispy and perfect for dipping in your morning coffee. Made using a similar method, these babies are twice-baked: once in a large, flat log to the point it’s just about cooked, and then they’re sliced and baked again to get that crunchy finish.
  • Sufganiyah (Hanukkah Jelly Donut) Sufganiyot are round jelly donuts, much like you’re used to seeing. They’re most traditionally served for Hanukkah but are delicious any time of year when you have the time to make them.
  • Easy Halva Recipe. Halva is an Israeli gluten and dairy-free candy made with sugar and tahini. It’s very dense and a little like a super moist fudge recipe, only there’s no condensed milk in sight.
  • Molly’s Sweet and Spicy Tzimmes Cake. If you’re a fan of carrot cake, you’ll love this lightly spiced cake. Not only does it include shredded carrot, orange zest, ginger, cinnamon, and cloves, but it also contains sweet potato and apple for maximum flavor.
  • Rugelach. If I had a dollar for every single rugelach I’ve ever made, I’m pretty sure I could buy an island! These little crescent-shaped cookies are to die for, and they’re crazy easy to make!
  • Hanukkah Gelt (Homemade Golden Chocolate Coins) As the name suggests, this chocolate “gold” is a typical Hanukkah gift, and you’ll need this mold if you want to get them just right.
