‘Tis the Season to be Jolly…
… Jolly because of all that butter and sugar you’re consuming. Oh my.
I’ve been baking a bit this winter break…

lemon pull-apart coffee cake with lemon cream...
FINALLY. Another recipe. It’s been a while… but this has been one of the coolest things I’ve ever baked. It was my second time EVER working with yeast and it was definitely not as intimidating as I thought it would be.
