Macaroons are something we always had for Christmas in many different versions at home – with hazelnuts, coconut flakes or almonds, with marzipan, chocolate and other “enhancements” ;) At some point, these little fellas were replaced on the Christmas-baking-to-do-list by other cookies, new ones that needed to be tested. This year I finally made some macaroons again – almond macaroons. A very good decision ;)
Have you ever heard of Marzipan Almond Crescents? I mean the name says it all, but have you tried something like that? It’s awesome delicious! Really. If you had one, you want them all. That’s the reason, why I am making them not very often. Too dangerous :P
Hey, what’s up folks?! ;) Still baking for Christmas or did you finish already? I mean Christmas cookies. If not – you know #CookieFriday turns into #ChristmasCookieFriday in December, so get ready for some nice cookies especially decorated for Christmas! It took a bit longer this time, so I had some time to listen to Christmas music and had one or maybe two mulled wines while working… exactly what you should do, when baking and decorating Gingerbread Christmas Cookies ;P
Are you ready for Christmas? Everything planned for your Christmas Dinner? If not… I might have something that would be a nice dessert :) These Candy Cane Cupcakes are easy to prepare and really delicious!
What happens if you lock three adults into a kitchen with several bottles of liquor? Any ideas? Anyone? Well… they will come up with some delicious desserts of course! What did you think?! ;)
What are your favorite Christmas Cookies? The classic ones? Here in Germany, the most common Christmas Cookies are probably easy biscuit cookies, sandwich cookies and cinnamon stars – all recipes you can already find on my blog ;) This year I decided to make a batch of new cookies: Orange Pecan Chocolate Cookies! Really nice ones! They earned a spot on the “must bake list” for next Christmas and the ones following!
I love my job, but in between I love to bake and try new things in the kitchen. A lot of my friends and colleagues encourage me to bake - for a very simple reason: they get the leftovers - and it seems they like it most of the time ;)
