Holiday Recipes 2023
JCR Monthly - Holiday Recipe Exchange
December 2023
Sixteen years have passed since we published our very first JCR holiday cookie exchange. Now an annual tradition, we look forward — every year — to gathering, baking, taste-testing, and serving delectable holiday recipes from our hotels and chefs across the globe. This year’s cookie exchange brings traditional yummies (chocolate chip cookies and Scottish shortbread) together with new, can’t-wait-to-try delicacies like French Madeleines from Paris. The famed Cifelli coconut cream pie (Anthony’s fave) which I make twice a year, Christmas and his birthday, is also included.
So make space on those kitchen islands, gather your ingredients, measuring spoons, and most festive aprons. Happy baking and be sure to send us a photo of your creations. Happy holiday season.

What is tea in Ireland without these festive holiday biscuits?

Who doesn’t savor a melt-in-your-mouth chocolate chip cookie, especially this classic recipe from Kenya.

White Elephant, Nantucket: Spiced Molasses Brownies
Nothing speaks (or smells) of the holiday season more than White Elephant’s spiced molasses brownies. So good.
SION: BEST Chocolate Chip Cookie
Chocolate chip cookies are always a good idea, so we are excited to debut Sion’s version of the classic.
Grantley Hall, UK: Speculoos Fingers
Cookies are not as much a holiday tradition in the UK as in the US, but Grantley Hall’s festive afternoon tea cakes are always a seasonal favorite.
Katikies Resorts, Greece: Cinnamon Cookies
We can smell these delectable cinnamon cookies all the way from Greece. If the holidays had a fragrance, this is it.

Not a cookie or sweet, but a savory truffle croque monsieur apéritif, French style.

The perfect libation to ring in the New year, this festive cocktail is the creation of Filip, sommelier at Castlemartyr’s Michelin star restaurant, Terre.

Our newest client, Lodge Lorien, is sharing the holiday spirit with this festive (and divine)
white chocolate berry & limoncello tiramisu.
The Old Carpet Factory on Hydra Island, Greece, is a historic mansion originally built in the late 18th century for the prominent Tsamados family. Over the centuries, it has served various roles, including as a residence, an industrial school, and a carpet-weaving factory.
Now reimagined as both a cutting-edge recording studio and an art residency, the Old Carpet Factory invites you to immerse yourself in Hydra’s rich heritage and contemporary allure. The residency program, established in 2019 by curator Ekaterina Juskowski, aims to document and preserve Hydra’s rich cultural heritage while supporting innovative artistic endeavors. While closed off to the public, the residency culminates in an exhibition that can be visited with a private guide.
Interested in discovering more about art and culture in Hydra? Get in touch with @oag_greece to build a personalized travel itinerary filled with the best art experiences Greece can offer.

A space with stories to tell. The Deluxe Atelier Suite @hotelchelsea is one of just five original artist residences, blending the building’s creative past with modern comforts.
With 14-foot ceilings and windows stretching the length of the room, you get sweeping views of the Empire State Building and the uptown skyline. Room 10Z, shown here, was once home to artist David Remfry—just one of many who found inspiration within these walls, including Patti Smith and Robert Mapplethorpe.

@thewauwinet, mornings don’t start with alarms—they start with slow sips of coffee and the sound of the waves. Afternoons are for doing exactly what you feel like, whether that’s biking along the coast, lounging with a book, or lingering over seafood and wine @toppersrestaurant. And when the sun starts to dip? There’s nothing better than a quiet sail, a deep breath of salt air, and that perfect moment when the sky and water blur into one.
