It’s almost the end of Twenty twenty-five, and while I gave more attention to my new site Best Christmas Desserts, and this site didn’t get as many new recipes, there were still some amazing ones I got to share in the last year.
I love looking through at the end of the year to see which of the new posts were the most popular, and here they are! Your 10 favorite posts that were new (or got a full revamp) in the year 2025.
As always I am so grateful for each of you! I really appreciate every one who takes the time to read our recipes, share them, make them, and let me know what you thought of them. I take a lot of time to get these recipes just right, so I’m always so happy when one of our recipes becomes a new favorite for your family!
10) Valentine M&M Cookies – These adorable M&M Cookies are soft, chewy, and loaded with chocolate chips and M&Ms. The cookies are rolled in sprinkles before baking, which makes them so festive. I love making different varieties of these for other holidays too!
9) White Chocolate Raspberry Cheesecake Bars – This was the third brand new recipe to break the top 10 this year! It’s indulgent, and made to impress without the stress. These bars are so much easier than an actual cheesecake, and just as delicious!
8) Carrot Cake Cookie Bars – The perfect dessert bar for carrot cake lovers, these are soft, chewy and have the best cream cheese frosting on top! These aren’t just good for Easter!
7) Strawberry Pretzel Jello Salad – The best pretzel jello salad you’ll ever make. I love making this for Easter, Thanksgiving, and summer BBQs because its a hit all year long.
6) Pumpkin Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies – These are your new favorite fall cookie, they have an extra chewy texture from the addition of oatmeal and the perfect pumpkin and pumpkin spice flavor in every bite.
5) Bacon Ranch Cheese Ball – Such a fun appetizer, this takes your homemade cheeseball to a new level. It’s perfect for all your parties and will be an instant favorite.
4) Cinnamon Swirl Coffee Cake – This was our best REALLY new recipe this year. This is the ultimate brunch dish, that I know you’ll love. It’s soft, cinnamony, and has the best crunchy brown sugar crumb on top!
3) Christmas Toffee – My dad has been making this toffee during the holidays for over 30 years. It’s the best anyone has ever had, and has the best texture and best flavor! I promise you’ll want to make this every year for Christmas too.
2) Mini Levain Chocolate Chip Cookies – Like Levain Chocolate Chip Cookies, but half sized. These cookies are still a huge 3 oz in size, gooey, soft, chewy, and loaded with melty chocolate chips.
1) Classic Cheeseball – The best cheese ball that tastes just like the ones you’ll get from the store. It’s got the perfect flavor, and is so good served up with crackers, pretzels, and veggies. This one has always been a favorite, but got a quick photo refresh this year, and is as good as ever in flavor.
