Christmas Lasagna - Vhira Virginia




Christmas Lasagna is whimsical layered dessert with buttery red velvet shortbread cookie crust, peppermint cheesecake layer, white chocolate pudding, whipped cream and mini marshmallows on top. I’m sure it will be a hit at your Christmas gathering, like this Christmas Cheesecake, too! Merry Christmas everyone!!!

However, you all know that I’m a little obsessed with my Lasagna desserts. And I’ve already made it in chocolate version, then came my Pumpkin lasagna and Key Lime Pie Lasagna, and the latest version was my White Chocolate Blueberry Lasagna I made this summer.
Today, I’m sharing with you my new favorite: Christmas Lasagna!!! But if you thought that I’m done with lasagna desserts, you’re wrong. Moreover, I still have so many interesting ideas on my mind, too.

RubySnap Judy Orange Cream Cookies

There’s a little hidden gem in a small shop right outside of downtown Salt Lake City, Utah that sells unique cookies that keeps me coming back for more. It’s called RubySnap and they have quite the following. We have a tradition of traveling to Park City every October to watch a football game and see actual leaves change colors. It’s a rite of passage to visit RubySnap to get our cookie fix when we are in town. Last time we were there, I brought all of my brothers along with me. We are all crazy foodies! We sampled almost every single flavor and went home with two large boxes of cookies. My Dad was shaking his head at our antics. I told him that he raised us to love good food!
