Our most popular class of the year!
Get ready to get into the holiday spirit! Join us to make four festive, fancy cookies to share with family, friends, and coworkers.
The 2023 lineup has a cookie for everybody. This year we're making a colorful selection of cookies featuring citrus, chocolate, almond, candied fruit, and coconut! As always, we'll try to sneak some baking lessons into the mix. We know this class is fun but we want to fulfill our teaching duties too. You'll leave class with festive tasty treats and the knowledge to make rough puff pastry, a checkerboard cookie, and a classic biscotti! And now the cookies:
Lime Cornmeal Checkerboard Cookies
This twist on the classic checkerboard cookie features organic stoneground cornmeal and punchy lime oil. These fun cookies are citrusy and buttery and the cornmeal gives them a delightfully unexpected flavor.
Coconut Twigs
Featuring rough puff pastry (a quick version of puff pastry), this cookie features layers upon layers of flaky dough with coconut extract and sweetened flake coconut before being twisted and then baked until the coconut is toasted and fragrant. The fun shape will sure to be a crowd pleaser!
Mazurka
A tender Polish bar cookie made with almond meal, then covered with a thin layer of almond paste and decorated with an assortment of dried fruits and nuts, finished with a sweet and shiny apricot glaze. Resembling a stained glass window, this bar cookie is almost too pretty to eat!
Triple Chocolate Mint Biscotti
Butter and peppermint extract combine with chocolate in three different forms to create a rich dough that is then twice baked, producing a crispy, yet tender cookie. We'll decorate the biscotti with a drizzle of melted white chocolate and a sprinkle of crushed peppermint candies.
While we can sometimes leave out ingredients, provide substitutions, or allow students to bring their own gluten free flour, several of these cookies cannot be altered and still achieve success. If you have any questions regarding the need to make substitutions, please contact us so we can discuss what will be possible.
For those signing up for a virtual session, we'll upload the shopping list, equipment list, and student guide by November 1st. You will have access to them by signing into your bakewithzing.com account.
