Our Favorite Baking Season

While we love desserts any time of year, (who doesn’t?), we especially love when the weather turns chilly and we can bake our favorite cookies and cakes. Yes, we do a lot of baking all year round, but the cooler weather makes it so much more enjoyable. You don’t mind the hot oven as much since it’s heating up the house. Plus there’s nothing quite like coming in from the cold to the smell of fresh-baked goodies wafting through the house.

Already we’re dreaming of dipping warm chocolate chip cookies into a mug of fresh hot coffee or hot cocoa. Then of course there’s our favorite pies like cinnamon apple topped with ice cream on top or a deliciously creamy cheesecake topped with cherry sauce.  I guess the truth is dessert is always on our mind! It’s just the cooler months give us more excuses to bake all of the time. There are always willing volunteers available to taste the results.
