It was Biscuit Baking Day again. And we baked a lot of biscuits. A whole lot.
I have a lovely filled biscuit tin. Interested in our biscuit varieties? Be prepared for a whole lot of yummy biscuit photos. (Deutsche Version.) More

Last week, my Mum told me that a very dear friend of her was really happy about my Peanut Butter Pine Nut Biscotti because she misses baked goods with peanut butter so much. And this was the reason for me to finally bake the cookies I wanted to bake for weeks: Peanut Butter Criss Crosses.

Today, I decided to try out a recipe from the queen of Baking Blogs: Joy the Baker’s Peanut Butter Pecan Biscotti. Well, just that mine were going to be Peanut Butter Pine Nut Biscotti. With Chocolate.
I was really grateful about this recipe, because I could finally bake something with Peanut Butter. More

It’s New Year’s Eve.
I told you about baking gingerbread. I did not only bake gingerbread for the tree. I also baked little gingerbread lucky charms.

Christmas is over. But what is left, are the things to enjoy. The Christmas tree is still here. Its great smell, too. A whole bunch of my Grandma’s biscuits has not been eaten yet. And I got little pretty things I love.
In London, I found a lot of them. I bought some to keep. And some of them, I got for Christmas. Others, I will give my friends for Christmas/New Year’s Eve.
Before going to London, I made a wish list. It said: “Biscuit Tin“. And I got a nice one.
It’s lovely. It’s from Marks & Spencer and filled with chocolate biscuits. They are yummy – Mum and I were allowed to taste them since we couldn’t decide for one of all the awesome biscuit tins. (In the end, we took two.) But I’m looking forward to opening it – after all the Christmas biscuits are gone -, sharing those biscuits and filling it with my own.
And I will bake my own biscuits with another wish on my list: Measuring cups.
I just couldn’t find the right ones in Vienna. So we decided to have a look at Selfridge’s. And there they were.
But what’s missing if you have measuring cups? Right: Measuring spoons. And those I found are pure awesomeness.

My presents are wrapped. Bounty loves to help.
Gingerbread to hang on the tree was baked. And decorated with sugar glaze.

This weekend, it was Biscuit Day again. Maybe you remember our last year’s Biscuit Baking Orgy. Of course, this year, we did the same. It’s going to be traditional.
Some biscuits we made were the same as last year’s biscuits. For example, our best ones: Cinnamon Stars.
By the way, if you’re done with always seeing photos of those awesome cinnamon stars (yes, they are awesome) and want to have some to eat for yourself, take a look at my recipe index. They’re in there!
But some were not the same as last year’s biscuits. Read on!

Mum and I are leaving. Tomorrow. We are leaving behind the men in our family for a 4-day-trip to London. Yay!
But Mum made them something tasty before. While I was at university and writing a test, she made Linzer Augen (Linzer Eyes).
