    12 Days of Christmas Baking Day 12: Kringle

    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. It was very frustrating and a good reminder to read directions carefully. The recipe I had chosen was super…

    12 Days of Christmas Baking Day 11: Panettone

    Seriously, I’ve made more bread in this past week than I probably have my whole life (minus banana or cranberry breads). Here it is though, the last bread recipe for this challenge! I saved this one for later because I needed to order panettone molds and I wasn’t sure they’d be here earlier on in…

    12 Days of Christmas Baking Day 10: Bûche de Noël

    12 Days of Christmas Baking        Day 10: Bûche de Noël

    This recipe was actually on the schedule for earlier in this challenge but I knew this was a beast of a project and honestly after some of the bread recipes I needed a break so I just kept pushing it back. But here it is… the day has arrived. I started this process yesterday by…

    12 Days of Christmas Baking Day 9: Vínarterta

    12 Days of Christmas Baking        Day 9: Vínarterta

    Vínarterta is known as the Icelandic Celebration Cake and is often made during the Christmas season. Despite using prunes, this recipe looks pretty and seemed fairly easy so I decided to give it a try. I halved the recipe since I didn’t have enough prunes and so we didn’t have so much baked goods in…

    12 Days of Christmas Baking Day 8: Malva Pudding

    12 Days of Christmas Baking        Day 8: Malva Pudding

    This South African dessert feels a combination of bread pudding and a more traditional British pudding with the sauce on top. This recipe was easy to put together, the only reason I marked this as a 9 under baking ease is because I had to convert everything from metric to imperial. Thankfully our scale has…

    12 Days of Christmas Baking Day 7: Czech Kolaches

    12 Days of Christmas Baking        Day 7: Czech Kolaches

    Note to self: really take time to research recipes before committing to them. Had I taken a little longer to check out the recipes I chose I would have realized that close to half were bread recipes. Not only do I not have a ton of experience with bread baking, but it takes FOREVER! If…

    12 Days of Christmas Baking Day 6: Sticky Toffee Pudding

    This is one of those desserts I feel like I heard all the time on Great British Bake Off. I don’t actually remember seeing them make this dessert so maybe I’m just thinking of another pudding, but I was pretty excited to try my hand at a British pudding. Well… that is until I realized…

    12 Days of Christmas Baking Day 5: Melomakarona

    12 Days of Christmas Baking        Day 5: Melomakarona

    Five days in and I’ll be honest, I’m having a lot of fun trying various Christmas and New Year’s treats from around the world. While I was researching what I’d be baking during these 12 days I found a lot of amazing recipes and it was really hard to consolidate to just 12 but these…

    12 Days of Christmas Baking Day 4: Bibingka

    12 Days of Christmas Baking        Day 4: Bibingka

    I purposely rearranged my baking challenge schedule to give myself a little break after the last two days. True to this baking challenge I’m baking recipes that I’ve never done before and many of which (including this one) I’ve never tasted before. Bibingka is a type of baked rice cake the Philippines that’s usually eaten…

    12 Days of Christmas Baking Day 3: Conchas (Mexican Pan Dulce)

    12 Days of Christmas Baking        Day 3: Conchas (Mexican Pan Dulce)

    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…
