Easy Recipes for Gifts - any Ideas?

[Anonymous]

I'm hoping to make something that I can bag up in pretty bags for about 20 people this Christmas.

Any ideas?

i was thinking candied nuts, because I have an easy recipe from Real Simple, but then, I know many people have nut allergies.

Banana bread or chocolates?

or you could do chocolate dipped pretzel sticks.

or small regular pretzels with a hershey's kiss melted in the oven, then stick an m&m on top.

I make several huge batches of biscotti for gifts. They seem "fancy" but are pretty easy to make. What is great about them is that they can last for months when kept in a metal tin. Epicurious.com has many biscotti recipes.
