Waffles for Christmas!!

I know this isn't really baking, but I had to post this.  After all the present opening in the morning and the prank we put on our kids with Santa's late letter(I know! We're bad parents. Lol. But it was fun to see the kid's expressions.), we had yummy waffles for breakfast. ^^*

Signature Cheesecake with Fresh Fruits

This is my signature cheesecake made for my husband's other work since they were having a small christmas party for only the hard workers/chefs, although it was really late and past the kid's bedtime, we didn't attend and only dropped off the cheesecake.  It would have been nice if it were berry season, since they would be much sweeter, but I had to work with what I can obtain.  Also, it would have been nice if I had kiwis to make the cake more appealing in color.

Sweet Potato Cake

Pumpkin Creamcheese Nut Bundt Cake

I recently went to Edward's fieldtrip to the pumpkin patch and I had seen something I have never seen in my whole life!  Blue Pumpkins!  They had shown blue pumpkins and caught to my attention something I must try, so I have been searching and phoned everywhere to find this, only to find that it is not a pumpkin!!  It's called BLUE HUBBARDS.  They are a squash; they come in a variety of sizes and are a mix of light grey, light blue, and white.

Kahlua Coffee Chiffon Cake

Bitter and strong taste from the Kahlua, light and soft spongy cake, and nutty from the sprinkled almonds, glazed with coffee syrup when warm.  Perfect for your morning wake up or afternoon refresh.

Apple Pie

The all-time favorite... Apple Pie!!  Flaky crust, sweet and nutty brown sugar, slightly fragrant spice of cinnamon, and soft buttery apples, topped with Vanilla Bean Ice Cream.  Delish!  My kids had two spices!!

Coffee Roll Cake

Bitter from the coffee, spongy from the cake, and slightly creamy from the buttercream.  Perfect with milk-blended coffee.

Sweet Potato Cream Cheese Buns

This is one of my favorite buns and I would eat it every single day without getting sick of it.  =)  The buns are slightly sweet from the sweet potato, creamy from the cream-cheese and soft from the well-risen dough, then sprinkled with sugar crystals and black sesame seed.

Pumpkin Spice Macarons

Now, with the Thanksgiving and Halloween season being, I wanted to try something with Pumpkin Spice and came up with the idea of Pumpkin Spice Macarons.  They came out rather better than I thought.  They are creamy from the creamcheese, yet has a hint of spice, nutty from the macaron caps, and then has the essence of Pumpkin Pie.  Perfect for Thanksgiving. ^^*

Happy Thanksgiving!

Mini Croissants

Miniature Croissants; flaky and buttery.  Kid's would love these for snacks and they would be gone within seconds.
