We are having Christmas dinner at my in-laws this year and I volunteered to do desserts (see links above). Usually I would spend Christmas Eve in the kitchen cooking as much as possible in advance, including dessert, but at the time this was organised I didn’t realise Christmas falls on a Wednesday this year so I would be working right through to Christmas Day. Tomorrow I’m working until 7pm and on Christmas Eve I finish at 4pm so not much time to get everything prepped. Ideally I want to deliver the food to her at some point in Christmas Eve so we can walk to her house on Christmas Day.

I am off all day today and could make one but my husband reckons they end up tasting like ‘fridge smell’ come the big day. Is he right or will they be fine being covered in cling film?

Lime cheesecake

Make this stunning layered, citrussy dessert ahead of time if you're entertaining. It's a crowd-pleaser that's part key lime pie, part cheesecake, part trifle

My gut feel is that it's a bit early for those kinds of desserts. You could make the bases today to save time.
