Come Christmas, I’m all about the baked goods, all the time. So just in case you’re not sure what you’re going to bake this year, I have a quick little round up from my archives for you.
Bacon Sticky Buns: Because smoky salty bacon goes incredibly well in cinnamon sticky buns.
Mini Swedish Chocolate Cake in a Jar: Perfect for gifting – gooey, chocolatey, good!
Earl Grey Tea Madeleines: For the tea lover in your life.
Coconut Almond Rice Krispie Treats: Grown-up rice krispies for the big kids.
Brown Butter Brownies: Seriously the best brownies I’ve ever made.
Banana Donuts with Nutella Glaze: The holy trinity: bananas, Nutella and sprinkles.
Chai Tea Cupcakes: Tea-scented cupcakes in jars are cute and portable to boot!
Pumpkin Cat Donuts: Calling all cat-lovers!
Mini Palmiers: Tiny crispy-crunchy sugar coated puff pastry cookies.
I’m a little sad that I won’t be baking a ton of cookies this year (the microwave oven in my Tokyo kitchen isn’t up for the job) but I hope you guys are baking up a storm!

If I bake these treats I have a feeling it’ll be like Christmas shopping at an outlet store…one for you, one for me.
Great round-up!
so i might have totally ruined a batch of red velvet bundt cakes yesterday (only two of them came out of the pans!) but i’m totally going to smash the crumbs into some little jars now a la that swedish chocolate cake :)
I wish I had never looked at this…I want everything!!!
I’d be the star of the show if I bought any of these with me to Christmas lunch!
Wonderful treats. Food gifts are ALWAYS appreciated!
Kill me now! I mean, don’t. Because I still want to enjoy every single one of these little treats, especially those adorable palmiers ;)
Wow, these all look fantastic. I’ll definitely have to try a few of them out!
Sooo I think I’m going to bake all of these and gift them to myself. :D
You took the words out of my mouth! That’s exactly what I was thinking (to myself).
I could give my husband those bacon sweet rolls and he would be so happy on Christmas morning. No need for any other gifts.
