Chrismas Sweets from Ree (and Bee!)

As you're streaming Candy Coated Christmas on discovery+, we bet your sweet tooth will start to tingle. Why? Because while Ree Drummond makes an appearance as Bee the bakery owner, her recipes also have a starring role on set!

And what better way to enjoy the movie by making some of the treats yourself to eat while watching. Here are the recipes for the goodies we spied in Bee's bakery case.

Mint Brownie Bites

Mint plays a big part in Candy Coated Christmas (the fictional town in which it takes place is called Peppermint Hollow, after all). Ree's brownie bites are made in a muffin tin to create their adorable stout shape, and chocolate mint candies easily add extra pizzazz.

Christmas Cake Cookies

Ree's super-soft, frosting-covered cookies are like a warm hug from grandma on the most festive day of the year.

Shortcut Peppermint Bark

For a perfectly packable cookie, Ree dips sandwich cookies in white chocolate and tops them with a little crushed peppermint — super easy!

Quick and Easy Apple Tart

Frozen puff pastry is the star of this elegant Ree recipe. The shape and structure is perfect for slicing into handheld pieces and eating on a snowy walk around your town square where you just might run into ... the love of your life?

Sticky Buns

A cozy pastry case wouldn't be complete without super-sized sticky buns. In this version of the recipe, Ree piles on the pecans for tons of crunch.

Maple Oat Nut Scones

We'd pick these up from Bee's bakery if we wanted a special breakfast for Christmas morning. Ground oats give them a hearty flavor, while a coffee-maple glaze brings rich sweetness.

Caramel Brownies

Brownies are a nostalgic recipe that probably make you think of special times with your family. In this recipe, Ree swirls dulce de leche on top as a final flourish to make them extra gooey — and memorable.
