Whew, today was a marathon in the kitchen! I tackled snowflake/star bread (first time attempting it!) and whipped up 5 batches of chocolate chip cookies sprinkled with sea salt. The bread turned out gorgeous, and the cookies are dangerously good.
That said… RIP my back.
Anyone else have baking days that feel like a workout? What’s your go-to treat when you go all-out in the kitchen? Sharing pics because I’m both proud and exhausted
I skipped the powdered sugar on top because I wanted to taste the bread first and see if a vanilla icing drizzle would work better. The bread turned out amazing—fluffy and just lightly sweet. Personally, I’d prefer a bit more cinnamon, but you might find it perfect as is. I shared the recipes earlier, though I did make a few tweaks along the way.

So nice! Just wondering if you have a good savoury star bread recipe? Thanks.
Thanks!! And IDK, yet. However, I love garlic knots and I’m thinking of leaning into that! Doing garlic, parsley, parmesan, olive oil, oregano, and some sort of melting cheese (maybe mozzarella). Maybe add in some sun-dried tomatoes too.
