Ever feel like you’re pouring from an empty cup?

Ever feel like you’re pouring from an empty cup?
It’s okay to slow down. If you haven’t noticed, I’ve been way less active on this app since before the holidays. Sometimes priorities have to shift for a period of time, and I have had to “ride the wave.”
My message to you is to take care of yourself. Slow down. Take breaks. Put your phone down. This app will still be here when you come back.

Pop the jam-pagne! 🍾
Champagne jam plus buttery shortbread crust…nothing better
Hit SAVE and enjoy this recipe
Shortbread bars:
1 cup unsalted butter at room temperature
2/3 cup sugar
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp almond extract
2 cups all purpose flour
1 cup mixed berry champagne jam (see below)
Instructions:
Set oven to 350F. Line a 9x9 pan with parchment.
Cream butter and sugar with hand mixer until fluffy and well combined.
Blend in salt, almond, and vanilla. Slowly mix in flour until just combined. The mixture will be crumbly.
Add 2/3 of mixture to base of pan and evenly pack down. Use spatula to spread jam on base. Crumble the remaining 1/3 on top. Bake for 35-40 minutes until just golden brown and jam bubbly.
For the jam:
1 1/2 cups champagne
4 1/2 cups frozen mixed berries (blueberries, blackberries, strawberries)
2 cups fresh or frozen cranberries
Juice of 1 large lemon
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
3 to 4 tablespoons corn starch dissolved in 1/3 cup water
Add berries, lemon juice, and sugar to large pot over medium heat and cook, stirring frequently, for 12 minutes. Use potato masher or large fork to mash down berries and extract juices (leaving some whole cranberries for texture).
Add champagne. Bring to a full simmer. In small bowl, combine cornstarch with 1/3 cup water. Add to pot with simmering mixture. Reduce heat to medium low. Continue to cook until thickened (about 10 minutes). Will continue to set as it cools

I have declared 2023 my year of travel. Started with New York - have lWashington DC and Chicago coming up as well as Asheville and Philadelphia. And that’s only through June!
Get ready for so much more than food this year!

This is the sign you’ve been waiting for!
Time to hop on a plane, train, or automobile and get to New York for a Broadway binge.
I went for a long weekend and saw Phantom of the Opera, Moulin Rouge, and @birbigs The Old Man & The Pool. I laughed, I cried…I’ll be singing Moulin Rouge songs for the next month.

You’re going to love this hack! Hit SAVE now 🍦
Do you get frustrated shooting with ice cream? Does it end up a melty mess? Well, next time you go to scoop ice cream onto a bake in your scene, try this instead: Use scoops of @so_delicious coco whip. It has a firm but easily scoopable texture out of the freezer and won’t turn into a melted blob. Plus, it looks like the real deal.
Are you going to try this out?

Hit SAVE and get ready for a jam session 🍾
Coming in hot with my mixed berry & champagne jam. For dry January, use non-alcoholic bubbly such as @frewines. This jam is perfect for cookies, pastries, dessert bars (coming soon) and just on its own. Best way to use leftover bubbly from New Years

4 1/2 cups frozen mixed berries (blueberries, blackberries, strawberries)

Has this ever happened to you?
All I wanted was chocolate cake. Had been craving it all day. Went the flourless route and it looked fantastic until I attempted to get it out of the pan. (Couldn’t find my springform pan and that was my downfall).
I ate it anyway. 🍫

Okay, I know what you’re thinking…
How could anyone be such an amazing dancer? Aw, shucks 🤓 No, you’re probably thinking I didn’t really go anywhere so why the dramatic return…
I wasn’t having fun anymore, but now I’m back! New year doesn’t necessarily mean “new me”, but I am making some changes over at @rachelbakesathome. I’m sticking with what I know you appreciate while also ensuring I have some fun.
Stay tuned…

I decided to be a whisk-taker and try something new…
Linzer cookies have always been on my list of must-try bakes, so I gave them a go. I used the wonderful recipe by @cookingclassy and filled with my mixed berry champagne jam (will share recipe for the jam with you soon so make sure to FOLLOW and stay tuned)

Happy New Year, friends! Leave a “Hell Yeah” in the comments if you’re ready to move on from the dumpster fire that was the start of the 2020s…
No better way to celebrate than with Confetti Krispie Treats! So many sprinkles! Plus, love a chocolate and butterscotch combo. Super easy to make too! Make Rice Krispie Treats as normal and mix in 4 oz chocolate to the melted marshmallow before adding the cereal. Top the treats with a hearty drizzle of melted butterscotch chips and all the sprinkles you can find 🎉

Dear 2022,
Thanks for the memories. And thank you all for supporting me and @rachelbakesathome this year.
It’s been a year of change. Changes at work, changes with relationships, change in location. I’ve learned a lot about myself and definitely like and respect myself a lot more than in the past.
Here’s to 2023 🍾

I don’t know my own powers…
I really missed snow so have been manifesting a white Christmas and went too far…I accept partial responsibility for the bomb cyclone. My bad 😣
In all seriousness, hope you stayed safe and warm and didn’t get any cars stuck in the snow.

The cookies, of course!
These butterball cookies aka Italian wedding cookies are buttery, full of almonds, and perfectly sweet. You won’t be able to stop at one! Christmas baking at its finest!

Are you tired? I’m tired
The holidays are upon us and 2023 is right around the corner. It’s been quite a year. I have a few posts left for the year but have pretty much reached my creative limit. I’m tired (and I’m tired of this app). I’ll be popping on every once in awhile but will be focusing on other things. I encourage you to recharge too. Taking breaks is okay!
Happy Holidays, friends! ❄️

@nickkroll says it best - I LOVE SNACKS ⛄️
Looking for last minute #stockingstuffers
Preheat to 250 and line a cookie sheet with parchment or silicone mat. Lay out your pretzel squares and place either a Rolo or Hershey’s Kiss in the center of the square. Place in preheated oven for 4-5 minutes until chocolate is soft. Remove and immediately place M&Ms or pecans and gently push into center of chocolate. Top with sprinkles as desired (don’t spill the sprinkles all over your kitchen like I did…) and allow to set. Once set, put a cup of treats into pretty Christmas bags or treat boxes and VOILA! Stocking stuffers or #christmasgifts
Hit Save! Happy Holidays
