Pour finir le repas de fête et pour finir l’année…
A little treat that will be on our table tomorrow night. The traditional Hungarian Christmas dessert : Beigli.
Filled with poppy seed or ground walnuts, this dessert is one of my favorite. It can be prepared one or two days ahead and stored in a tea towel until Christmas diner.
I also take this occasion to wish you all a good time with family and friends for this Christmas and New year’s eve !

Some people are under stress to organise their Christmas diner, I am for Christmas gifts. That doesn’t mean I get organised. I’m always and invariably late every year…!
