    Cranberry Christmas Cake

    Cranberry Christmas Cake


    Ingredients:
    3 eggs
    2 cups sugar
    3/4 cup butter softened
    1 teaspoon vanilla
    2 cups all-purpose flour see note below for gluten-free alternative
    And so on.

    Instructions:
  • Step number 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. With a mixer, beat the eggs with the sugar until slightly thickened and light in color, about 5-7 minutes. The mixture should almost double in size. The eggs work as your leavening agent in this recipe, so do not skip this step. This mixture should form a ribbon when you lift the beaters out of the bowl. Add the butter and vanilla; mix two more minutes. Stir in the flour until just combined. Add the cranberries and stir to mix throughout.
  • Step 02, Spread in a buttered 9x13 pan. (This pan is my favorite!) Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until very lightly browned and a toothpick inserted near the center of the cake comes out clean. (I baked mine for 43 minutes.) Let cool completely before cutting into small slices. I cut mine into fairly small pieces, about 1"x2", so that they could be easily eaten at a party. Enjoy!

    Salted Dark Chocolate Almond Toffee

    Salted Dark Chocolate Almond Toffee


    Ingredients:
    2 cups (340g; 12 ounces) whole unsalted almonds*
    1 cup (230g; 8 ounces) unsalted butter, cubed
    1/2 cup (120ml; 4 ounces) warm water
    1 cup (199g, 7 ounces) granulated sugar
    1 teaspoon salt
    And so on.

    Instructions:
  • Step number 1. Here are step-by-step photos of making the toffee on the stovetop, so you can see the process and more importantly, the coloring of the toffee as it cooks.
  • And now, Preheat oven to 300°F (149°C) degrees. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. (Silicone baking mat is preferred.) Spread the almonds onto the sheet and bake for 15 minutes, stirring them around twice during that time. Toasting the almonds brings so much flavor to the toffee. Remove from the oven, allow to cool, and set 1 cup aside. Chop up the other cup of almonds nice and fine. Or pulse in a food processor a few times to break them up. These will go on top of the dark chocolate.
  • Next step is, Line a 12×17 inch jelly roll pan with a silicone baking mat or parchment paper. Set aside.
