We love to get together for holiday dinners as a family. I always make sure to put out a spread of snacks that everyone can enjoy while they are hanging out waiting for dinner to be served. The problem is that it is not always so easy to put together a variety of finger foods that everyone will love and I usually have to be very creative with the items that I choose.
This year I had the opportunity to review the Christmas Gift Basket™ Classic from Gourmet Gift Baskets and I was thrilled that the basket would come already put together with all of the pre-dinner foods that my family loves to eat and that I would not have to go crazy running around to get all the items. This particular gift basket boasted that it contained “a variety of award-winning gourmet snacks that appeal to a wide variety of tastes.” We couldn’t wait to try all of the yummy snacks.
Some of the gourmet snacks that were included in the gift basket were chocolate covered cherries, dark chocolate bar, chocolate chip cookies, almond clustered popcorn, raspberry honey mustard pretzel dip along with pretzels, and so much more. Right away, I knew that there would be a little something for everyone in this basket and we eagerly set out to try every single thing as soon as we opened the basket.
My husband’s absolute favorite were the Chocolate Chip Pecan cookies. I can honestly say that I was only able to try ONE cookie before he polished off the whole box of them. They were delicious and fresh which was something that we were definitely concerned about when trying food from a gift basket.
My sons and I loved the Almond Pecan-dy Crunch and the Buttered Peanut Crunch because they were sweet and crunchy. We also enjoyed the parmesan, artichoke, and garlic Cheese Biscuits which were also fresh and savory.

Everything was so yummy and the best part was that it arrived ready to open and eat! The basket itself was gorgeous and I felt bad opening it up, almost… 😉
