Whipping up holiday waffles with a surprise ingredient - plum jam!

The task of preparing twelve dishes for Christmas Eve dinner is a formidable challenge, a fact we fully recognize. The process of preparing a traditional Christmas Eve meal requires great care and time. Therefore, it's not surprising that sweet snacks often fall by the wayside or are forgotten entirely. For dessert enthusiasts, this can be quite disappointing and feel somewhat neglectful.

When time is of the essence and making a cake from scratch isn't feasible, we strongly recommend simple, no-bake recipes. However, if you're in the mood to flex your creative muscles in the kitchen, we have the perfect recipe for you. Next, we'll share a recipe for delectable holiday waffles with nuts, sponge biscuits, and ... plum jam. This final, unexpected ingredient is a real game-changer. We promise the experience is unlike any other, so without further ado, let's get started on the recipe!

Ingredients:

• 1 cup plus a bit more whole milk,
• 10.6 ounces of ground walnuts,
• 3/4 cup of sugar,
• 7.05 oz of butter,
• 8.8 oz plum jam,
• A package of mini ladyfingers,
• 4 waffle sheets.

1. Transfer the jam into a pan and cook it down. Let it cool. Meanwhile, heat the sugar and milk in another pot. Remove from the heat, add the ground nuts and let this mixture sit so the flavors can meld.
2. Cream the butter (it should be soft) and gradually mix it into the cooled nut mixture.
3. Spread a layer of jam onto a waffle sheet, then top it with another waffle sheet. Apply half of the nut mixture onto this layer, then arrange the ladyfingers on top.
4. Spread the remaining nut mixture over the biscuits, then place the third waffle sheet on top. Apply a layer of jam and then the final waffle sheet. Refrigerate the assembled dish. Slice into smaller pieces prior to serving. Delicious!
