Want to offer your Yuletide guests something?unexpected for a snack instead of?the usual Christmas fare? Try some of these daring dishes…

1. Donal Skehan’s?Millionaire Chocolate Ganache Tart?(pictured above). A marvellously moreish option, this dainty but dangerous gold-dusted tart by one of Ireland’s most charming chefs is a handy one to cut up and share – or devour all on your lonesome with a glass of milk while watching Love, Actually. No judgement here.
