Pizza Bagels with Chef Howard

Baking Babka

Today I attempted something that I have never made before, Babka! It was actually a lot easier than I thought it would be. I used our family's sweet yeast dough as the base and then added lots of Nutella on the inside. Elliott loved to help mix the dough up and I ended up putting it together and baking it while he (attempted) took a nap. Here is the link for the recipe: Babka

Confetti Cookies

I was looking for a quick cooking project to do with Elliott and I forgot about these cookies. They use cake mix as the base! They are simple to make and I usually have everything on hand. I usually use jimmies (or sprinkles) instead of the nonpareils. Elliott went a little heavy with the nonpareils, which is why they look like there are a lot of them in there and started to discolor the cookie. Enjoy!

Is It Snowing?

Coming from Buffalo, when there is a snow storm or blizzard and you are stuck at home, you bake. Get out the butter, sugar, & flour, and dust off your mixer. Today was a perfect day for making cookies! We made Oma's (or my grandmother's) cutout cookie recipe that is the only one I have ever known and used. It's a buttery, sugar cookie that isn't too sweet. We use the frosting from the cupcakes & frosting recipe to spread on top. I also found out today that I don't have alot of food coloring left. Only a few drops of some neon colors. I will be fixing that with an Amazon order soon. Here is the link to the recipe: Oma's Cutout Cookies
