SMOOTH OPERATOR
pizza or 4 lbs of chicken wings, and it even fits a 9x13-in. baking sheet perfect for cooks who love to entertain but often find themselves running out of oven space. It also doubles as an air fryer and includes a frying basket and air-frying presets for added versatility. It preheats quickly, but beware: This unit gets very hot, so don't place it too close to a wall. The only other downside? It's quite tall-so tall, in fact, that it didn't fit under my upper kitchen cabinets. -Erica Lenti Cuisinart Large Air Fryer Toaster Oven, $599, cuisinart.ca.

DEAD SIMPLE DESSERT
The Gift of Good Wine
The thought behind the selection counts for way more than what's in the bottle.
Just Roll With It
I AM DEEPLY OPPOSED TO DESSERTS that are fussy in preparation or decoration and lacking in taste payoff. But a yule log, also known as a bûche de Noël, is as spectacular to eat as it is to look at. This airy, cream-stuffed sponge cake is hands-down my favourite holiday dessert. (Ask anyone who has ever been to my house in December!) A glossy ganache bark, a handful of sugared cranberries and a few sprigs of rosemary make this seasonal stunner look like it came from a fancy bakery, but it's actually totally doable at home.
