Cammy Gingerbread always feels like the holidays to me. I've typically never had it any other time of year. I also have never made it before this year. Last week, Molasses Cookies, this week cake. I may continue on this theme for a while. This gingerbread cake brings all things gingery up another level.... Jen Mandy Nikita This challenge was left open for some interpretation. Seasonal could mean "Fall" or "Holiday." Because of my #25daysofcookies challenge, I decided to make something that reminded me of snuggling up on the couch with a cozy blanket and a crackling fire. So, Chicken Noodle Soup made the cut. It hit the spot. This particular recipe uses the smallest amount of turmeric to give it that yellow color. I may have added too many egg noodles because they swelled up and drank most of the broth. I had to add a whole container of broth at the end of the process to make it soupy again. Oops. But this is definitely a "make-again." We actually froze the leftovers to reheat later. BTW - if you don't have a fireplace, Netflix has an hour-long Birchwood Fire. It crackles and everything! Georgia Funny how when Cammy challenged us with something seasonal 2/3 of us went to the sweet side. In all fairness to Nikita she's challenged herself to the 25 days of cookies and has been baking a new cookie every day. I went for chocolate chip cookies for several reasons and most have to do with chocolate chip cookies. Hoping we have some for Savannah when she gets here this evening. Let's just say Randy likes them. So about the cookies. Delish. They are not the thin crispy chocolate chip cookie you get more often than not. These have a little heft to them. Not too cakey, not too thin. One thing I changed from the recipe. I never use salted butter. Never under no circumstances. Unsalted butter allows you to easily control the saltiness of any recipe. I don't care what anyone says. Everyone NEEDS an Elvis Christmas ornament! Angel on the far left has graced my Christmas for almost 30 years. We are 6 short days away from the big day!
Praying everyone has an amazing Christmas, Cammy, Jen, Mandy, Nikita and Georgia
