In a magnificent coastal setting, Dame Mary Berry wants to show the nation how to make delicious gifts for family and friends this Christmas.
Joined by Strictly dancer Oti Mabuse, TV favourite Amanda Holden and DJ Nick Grimshaw, Mary has the ideal recipes to gift, including sumptuous mini Christmas cakes, chewy and crispy almond snowballs and spicy Christmas chutney.
Along with her gifting recipes, Mary also whips up a delicious winter vegetable soup with chestnuts, her family Christmas Eve favourite, prawn and haddock fish pie, with a delightful twist of a cheesy creamy style topping, some truly original turkey pasties and a creamy show-stopping clementine crème brûlée.
In a beautiful coastal setting, Mary and Oti are amazed to see a group of Santa-hat-wearing swimmers run into the sea for their traditional cold water Christmas dip. As a reward for braving the waves, Mary and Oti share their freshly made almond snowballs with the swimmers.
Mary invites Amanda to join her in the historic local pub, where they catch up on all things Christmas and make boozy apricots in brandy and a deep rich stilton dip, both perfect for gifting. As a thank you, Amanda surprises Mary with a visit to the local church for some festive entertainment.
Then it’s off to the RNLI boathouse in Rye, where Mary and Nick Grimshaw roll up their sleeves and get stuck into making some divine ginger flapjacks to share with the volunteers, family and friends at their annual RNLI Christmas carols celebration. A wonderful treat for them all and a perfect gifting recipe to end the show.
