The baking marathon has begun!
The empire biscuits are done.
Moon cookies and rugelach too.
Yesterday was stollen making day. These take a long time to make and should be made at least 2 weeks before Xmas.
They are filled with almond paste and coated with butter and sugars when they are still warm. The butter/sugar mixture creates a crust which insulates them as they mature.
I also threw an Italian cranberry orange bundt cake into the mix for a friend.
This is a new one for me so I will await feedback. So much more to bake, running short on time!
