What's Cookin' – Christmas Baked Goods

Nutella-Red-Velvet-Cookies-4-682x1024

Hi everyone,

Today let’s talk about Christmas baked goods. It’s a love/hate relationship for me with them, I love to eat them but my waistline hates me for it when I do. There is furthermore the joy I get from baking them and having other people enjoy eating them. Below are recipes I want to try out this year and add to my yearly rotation (some maybe twice a year).

1. Chocolate peppermint icebox yule log cake (Joy the Baker)

2. Peanut butter cups (The Comfort of Baking)
