We don’t know about you, but we can hardly believe the year is coming to a close. 2021 was a rollercoaster year that tested us in so many ways. Here at Kitchn, we tried our best to stay grounded by feeding ourselves and the ones we love well. As we dive into 2022, we plan to do very much the same.

December was marked with tons of amazing new recipes on our site. Your favorites leaned heavily on festive and cozy. Christmas Manicotti, Chocolate Brownie Cookies, and Chicken Bacon Ranch Casserole were just a few that topped the list. Here are the most popular new recipes from this past month.
