Happy New Year 2020! Many cultures have a celebratory dish or bread or …. something that they use to ring in the New Year. This year, I decided to do a variation on the New Year’s Bread. In the past, I’ve done a giant New Year’s Pretzel … this year it is New Year’s Star. It’s like a giant cinnamon roll actually. Either which way, it is a lovely item for breakfast in the morning. I hope that your 2020 starts off well. Enjoy!

Dessert for Christmas Day dinner. I thought that instead of a lemon curd tart, I would make a cranberry curd and it turned out lovely. Not too tart (no pun intended), and the candied cranberries are a super textural change. While this looks impressive, it’s actually really easy to make so give it a go!
Good morning. Just the CSPS Girl jumping in here with a little coffee cake recipe, in case you are looking for a quick baked-good that you can make the day before. Can be served at room temperature or warmed a bit, for breakfast or for afternoon tea, this Cranberry Orange Coffee Cake with Pecan Streusel is delicious. Don’t have fresh berries? Frozen will do just great in this recipe (keep the berries frozen when you put into the batter) and you can even swap out the cranberries for blueberries or raspberries. Enjoy!

Salted Honey Almond Fudge and White Chocolate Cranberry Pistachio Fudge
As is my usual routine in December, I try to make some homemade chocolates or fudge as presents for Christmas. This year, I decided to go with some salted honey almond and some white chocolate with cranberry and pistachios. I’d never made white chocolate fudge before, but it turned out nice and vanilla-y. Definitely a treat!
