Mariah Carey loves this time of year. The “All I Want For Christmas Is You” singer plans to spend Christmas with her 12-year-old twins, Moroccan and Monroe, whom she co-parents with ex-husband Nick Cannon.

Her yearly Christmas ritual involves a delectable family dish. Carey told “Entertainment Tonight” that they and some friends will spend the holiday in Aspen, Colorado. 

The singer told ET, “Santa’s coming over as well. You think I’m lying, but it’s true! That is my homie and so he’s gonna be coming over.” Carey is excited to make her late father’s clam linguini. Despite her kids’ inability to prepare it, Mariah makes it every year.

“They haven’t learned the recipe yet, but they know about it and it’s really special to me because it’s my father’s recipe for my favorite dish that he used to make when I was little,” she shared.

The Grammy winner’s tour will start November 15th and end December 27th at Madison Square Gardens.
