Please get your festive pants on and dance around the kitchen with me to this EXTENDED VERSION of Mizz Diva’s holiday classic! You’d better believe that I am partaking in a bit of Mariah Carey-oke right now. I sincerely hope you are too.

I’ll share the recipe now, spend the next year perfecting them so we achieve the correct amount of SNAP! and I’ll update you next year. Sound like a plan? Fantastic. Let’s roll. (more…)
