Twelve Days of Christmas
How to Make Danish Pastry
How to make Danish Pastry – useful for all sorts of treats!
Day 6 – Sausage and Bacon Cranberry Tarts
A little something savoury for Day 6 of our 12 Days – I’m thinking buffet table or simply scoffing them straight off the cooling rack!
Day 5 – Cookies in a Jar
Day 5 of The Pink Whisk Christmas and these make, yet another, lovely gift! Who could resist? I’ve even rounded up some gorgeous jar labels and tags for you from the oh so fabulous Michelle Lancaster of Wink Design x
Day 4 – Gingerbread Sleighs & Giant Men!
Two different projects for Day 4 of The Pink Whisk 12 Days of Christmas – Giant Gingerbread Men and Sleigh’s too – all using a fab Gingerbread Dough
Time to get cracking!
Giant Gingerbread Man
So how about a Giant Gingerbread Man? These seem to be everywhere this Christmas and with a price tag of £5-6.00 I thought for Day 4 of The Pink Whisk Christmas we’d make our own!
Gingerbread Sleighs
A Gingerbread Sleigh – filled with a Chocolate Father Christmas and Snowballs!
My plan was to make these for the boys for Christmas, but having made only 2 and there being 3 of them these are off to the school Christmas fair instead!
Gingerbread
Gingerbread dough is always lots of fun – whether you want to make biscuits, men or even a Gingerbread house then a good dough recipe is the place to start. The resting of the dough and chilling is an important step for the very best in gingery spiced flavoured biscuits so try not to miss it out if you can.
