Sesame Seed Balls
Today is the Lunar New Year and we bid farewell to the Year of the Rat and usher in the Year of the Ox. Fried Sesame Balls, or Jian Dui, are a classic Chinese dessert that is traditionally served during the Lunar New Year so that’s what I’m trying today! Not only have I never…

Hot Cocoa Cake
I posted the recipe for Hot Chocolate Macarons yesterday and as promised I wanted to post part two of my themed dessert baking for this week. I saw the recipe for this Hot Cocoa Cake “The Perfect Cake” recipe book from America’s Test Kitchen and it looked so fun! I hadn’t planned on making it…

Hot Chocolate Macarons
I saw these adorable macarons on Pies & Taco’s Instagram a few weeks ago and have just been waiting for the chance to make them. I was already making a Hot Cocoa Cake (stay tuned for that post this weekend!) and thought making these too would be a fun edition. After a more successful venture…

Gluten Free Vanilla Biscotti
When I worked at a coffee shop we used to get wonderful biscotti from a local vendor. My favorite was a chocolate biscotti dipped in white chocolate with some crushed peppermint. I’ve been in the mood for some good biscotti and the store bought stuff just doesn’t cut it so I decided to start off…

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
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
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…
