I have never made homemade cinnamon rolls...  ...until last week!  I was always pretty intimidated, but was convinced by the rave reviews and great instructions on this post by Robyn Stone at Add A Pinch to give it a try! The recipe makes a LOT, but they can be frozen, or shared. :) Evan is a big cinnamon roll fan, and loved these... Me, too! I actually ran out of time and made these in two days. After the part where you cut and lay them in the pan, I covered the pan well in plastic wrap and refrigerated overnight. I gave them their second rise the next morning, by letting them sit above a warm toaster oven. Ever tried Saigon cinnamon or creme bouquet flavoring? I'd never heard of these, but after reading different recommendations, I've been using them in my baked goods. All I can say is "Wow!"

Wills Kitchen: Mexican Cornbread Casserole  Winter Storm Quinn dropped 7 inches of snow on us today. A great day to stay in and make a hearty meal! I had some Jiffy Cornbread Mix I had to use up and found a recipe that I thought Evan and I would both like... Wills Kitchen Mexican Cornbread Casserole-- recipe here. Delicious! (Only Evan's side got the jalapeños) It looks like Will has some other great recipes, too!  Soughdough Dinner Rolls I'm a big bread lover, and have really enjoyed trying different bread recipes. I was intimidated to try sourdough bread till one of the recipe blogs I follow posted a recipe, with a link to how to make an easy 'starter'. So, I made it-- and so glad I did! It's a simple recipe that just involves some waiting time. The easy Sourdough Starter Recipe I used is here, and the Sourdough Rolls Recipe is here. Great thing is, the 'starter' keeps in the refrigerator, so I'll be ready to go next time. :-) Try it, you'll like it!
M E R R Y B A K I N G !I had some fun in the kitchen trying these new (to me), very easy and delicious recipes! They're awesome! How about you? Try anything new? How did yours turn out? (Click on link underneath photos for recipes)  Refrigerated Sugar Cookies (Tastes of Lizzy T) (I didn't add sprinkles to the outside edge)   Christmas Fudge (Recipe Boy) (I added crushed candy cane on top) 
Christmas Oreo Pops (Chelsea's Messy Apron) (I omitted the sticks)  I hope you take some time for yourself, |
 | I found this recipe on Allie Taylor's awesome blog, "Through Her Looking Glass" Check it out! These are super-easy to make and super-delicious! I actually used blueberry jam instead of raspberry... very similar to another recipe from Allie-- Pecan Crumble Blueberry Shortbread. YUM! |
