Chef's Note:

A lot of times, after prepping items for Christmas Day lunch on Christmas Eve, you feel too exhausted to even think about preparing a heavy traditional breakfast the next morning. You want to get food on the table fast before you focus on the big Christmas lunch or dinner. Go the continental route and serve this overnight prepped dish that will set your entire family in a good mood on Christmas morning. A sweet treat you can serve with a side of fruits for a simple but delightful holiday breakfast or go the extra mile and pair with a side of eggs, bacon, sausages, smoked marlin or smoked salmon for an easy brunch spread. Serve with your hot chocolate, tea, coffee or even eggnog. Feeling naughty? Make it festive and serve with mimosas!
