Some recipes don’t need a long ingredient list or complicated steps to become legendary. This Christmas appetizer is proof. With just four simple ingredients, it delivers big, bold, irresistible flavor—and once you make it, you’ll understand why it disappears faster than cookies at a holiday party.
The image says it all: glossy, caramelized cubes of savory goodness, perfectly browned and sticky, with a sweet-and-salty glaze that clings to every bite. These little bites are rich, comforting, and made for sharing—though no one would blame you for sneaking a few straight from the pan.
