Anna Olson shares three unique holiday desserts to try this season

Anna Olson is known for her delicious baking, and to celebrate the festive season, she shared three baked goods that will surely wow your crowd. 

Sponge toffee

Sponge toffee is crazy fun to make because it is more than quadruple in size when you add the baking soda and cream of tartar. It may be hard to imagine, but the taste of that small amount of honey does come through in this crisp yet tender confection.

Almond Streusel Tart

The versatility of the Almond Streusel continues. It is used as a topping for tarts and cakes and can also be the foundation for squares. The streusel is pressed into the pan to make a sliceable but sturdy base for these jam squares and sprinkled over the top as a crumbly topping.

Mincemeat Dartois 

A dartois can be very rustic and approachable or very polished and professional. This recipe uses a spiced mincemeat filling, making it a nice dessert to end a holiday meal or add to an assortment of desserts for a larger group. Dress up individual portions with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of Crème Fraîche.
