12 Days of Christmas Baking Day 12: Kringle

Monday night I started working on a Kringle using a different recipe and managed to misread the instructions and whipped the living daylights out of the butter, hence rendering the rest of the dough completely useless.

Bibingka is a type of baked rice cake the Philippines that’s usually eaten…

Wow… I thought yesterday tested my abilities. Today’s challenge stepped things up a little! First, I would definitely recommend watching the video under the instructions beforehand as it was really helpful to watch someone else doing this before starting. Second, I should have started this dough last night and let it rise in the fridge…
