December Baking

It started with a new baking book.... Adam got it for me for Hanukkah and since I had 2 weeks off of work, plus lots of things to celebrate, I tried about a bunch of new recipes!  My go-to is Smitten Kitchen so it was nice to have a new inspiration.  We both like Claire Saffitz and have watched most of her youtube videos through the BA test kitchen.  Anyways, I've been baking a lot and decided my 2021 new years resolution is to bake something new per month.  December I tried about 10 new recipes and some old ones.... 



Challah



sourdough 


lemon meringue tart



stuffed bread



Palmiers




Raspberry swirl chocolate cheesecake




Pecan Sticky Buns








Meringue cookies




Brown butter sage sable cookies


Fancy Brioche Pigs in a blanket


Brioche Cinnamon Twists

New Years 2021!


New years Eve this year included 2 kinds of fondue (cheese and oil), chocolate pavlova, drinks and a countdown at 9pm for the kids!  We did dinner at my parents for New Years Day and the kids had a sleepover.  I know we're all hopeful that 2021 is going to be a much better year!
