Whether “last minute” for you means any time after Thanksgiving or 11:30 p.m. on Christmas Eve, it’s nice to have a repertoire of standby gifts that don’t require expensive overnight shipping. My standbys are edible gifts—decadent treats that offer my love and best wishes for the season.
By their very nature, edible gifts are often best when left to the last minute because you can always argue that fresh is best. These quick-fix favorites require little if any culinary skill.
