Baking| STOLLEN PUDDING … a Daring Bakers Stollen in Bread Pudding
I stole the Stollen we made for Christmas with the Daring Bakers and baked it into a STOLLEN/BREAD PUDDING! Mmmm...just the perfect dessert for a cold wintry day, good to the last crust. Dried tart cherries, slivered almonds and a sifting of sugar dressed it up! Merry Christmas!

Apple Cake … Dorie Greenspan’s winning recipe
