There’s a quiet magic that happens in the kitchen once the holidays begin. The scent of cinnamon and butter fills the air, hands reach instinctively for mixing bowls, and someone inevitably says, “just add a little more cream.” It’s the kind of season that calls for recipes you can feel as much as taste, and Kemps has always been at the center of those moments.
Made with milk and cream from Midwest family farms, Kemps Whipping Cream and Half & Half add the unmistakable richness that turns good recipes into great ones. They give coffee a silkier body, soups a smoother finish, and desserts a rich nostalgia that only real dairy can deliver.
This year’s lineup of holiday recipes is all about that feeling, comfort, tradition, and a little indulgence. Fresh from local family farms, filled with holiday spirit.
There’s no scent quite like gingerbread baking in the oven. Molasses, clove, and cinnamon come together in a tender crumb, made even richer with a pour of Kemps Half & Half. The result is soft, spiced, and just sweet enough to taste like the season.
These muffins belong beside a pot of coffee on a frosty morning. Bursting with tart cranberries and topped with buttery crumble, the secret is Kemps Half & Half, which keeps every bite light, moist, and decadent.
Meet a dessert that walks the line between elegance and comfort. Pillowy meringue is swirled with golden caramel and anchored by a smooth layer of Kemps Whipping Cream. It’s the kind of indulgence that doesn’t need an occasion, though the holidays certainly help.
Liven up any holiday table with a moment of fun, like inviting everyone to build their own sweet masterpiece. Think seasonal fruit, cookies, chocolate, and generous swirls of Kemps Whipping Cream, whipped to soft peaks and ready for dipping.
Sometimes simplicity is the magic. A spoonful of Kemps Whipping Cream turns a slice of pie, bowl of pudding, or mug of cocoa into something far more memorable. It’s the finishing touch every dessert deserves.
Here’s a reminder that holiday comfort doesn’t always have to mean sweet. These tender, savory meatballs simmer in a sauce enriched with Kemps Whipping Cream, creating the kind of dish that draws everyone back to the table for seconds.
A twist on a holiday classic never fails to impress. The milk brine on this turkey keeps the meat tender and juicy, while Kemps Whipping Cream gives the gravy its luxurious texture. Plus the spatchcock cut ensures it’s evenly cooked.
Chocolate, peppermint, and cream, the trio of holiday joy. Kemps Whipping Cream brings the ganache together in a texture that’s as smooth as it is rich. Every slice tastes like a winter celebration.
There’s dessert, and then there’s this. A glossy, dark chocolate tart filled with ganache made from Kemps Whipping Cream, and finished with just enough salt to make the sweetness sing. It’s the grand finale every holiday table deserves.
Because the best holiday memories aren’t just made around the table, they’re made in the kitchen, one creamy recipe at a time. Kemps – It’s the Cows.
