Joulutorttu is a Finnish Christmas pastry made from puff pastry in the shape of a star, filled with prune jam and dusted with icing sugar.

Creating this creepy and delicious appetizer for the scariest day of the year is eerily simple and frighteningly tasty.

Palitos de Queso, or fried cheese sticks, are a great and easy snack to make. In Colombia you can buy them everywhere and they are usually accompanied by sweet marmalade. They can be filled with mozzarella or any type of mild yellow cheese. My favorite are filled with cheddar and accompanied by pineapple or strawberry marmalade.
