  • Some buttery soft and toasted coconut shortbread from last weekend with our bffs for a friend’s sprinkle! ✨

A few of us brought an assortment of shortbread to share after dinner (the others being citrus and rosemary) and I forgot how comforting of a sweet treat it is.

It’s just one of those biscuit recipes that is so simple, yet offers endless variations and arguably plenty of room for error. Adding more shortbread to my list of near-future needs! 🤌🏻

  • Kept seeing this trend everywhere and finally had to try it for myself. 🤭 Learn how to bring this fun “big head” effect to life in @adobeexpress using remove background (no paywall btw), erase, and animations!

Bonus points for anyone who can guess which animated TV show from the 90s it reminds me of and loosely inspired this post! 👀

  • Jam & Buttered Toast Cookies, recipe via @lungisalwaysbaking // When you thought you’d seen it all and then a cookie rocks you to your core. 🔥

Toasted sourdough slathered with jam and butter that’s then blitzed into pieces and mixed into a brown butter/white miso dough, marbled with extra jam and rolled in more toasty bits. Crispy edges, gooey middles.

The original calls for white chocolate, but I only had dark on hand (a mix of chunks from a bar and @guittardchocolate wafers)—next time I’ll prepare more because I love a good white choc + raspberry combo!

Truly run, don’t walk to make these! And I know I said it already, but @lungisalwaysbaking—may you always find a parking spot close to the entrance. 😭

Head to her page/substack for the recipe, friends!

  • My first galette des rois of the year! 🫶🏻 This will always be my favorite pastry to bake and eat. Silky almond cream tucked inside some flaky puff pastry (in this case rough puff)—I mean what’s not to love?

Galette des rois is a French pastry that makes a big appearance in January, specifically January 6th to celebrate the Epiphany (a religiously-tied feast day).

Traditionally you’d hide a small fève (typically a small porcelain charm of some sort) inside the almond cream to make for a fun surprise when serving up pieces. In place of a charm, you can also just use an almond!

Here I followed @emcdowell’s rough puff pastry recipe and @davidlebovitz’s almond cream filling! ❤️ Definitely give this one all try if you never have or get your hands on one at the bakery. They’re the best!
