November 2022 Baking Challenge
Last month for the October Baking Challenge we made Jack-o’-Lantern Cookies! Thanks so much to everyone who joined in. We loved seeing all your beautiful cookies!
Once winners are randomly drawn and then personally confirmed, they’ll be announced on the blog and on social media, as always. Each winner has 48 hours to respond before we re-pick a winner, so it sometimes can take a few days to announce.
I am super excited to share NOVEMBER’S Baking Challenge recipe pick.
This month, we’ll be making…
CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES!
We’re celebrating the launch of The Perfect Cookie Kit (available to order on November 9th!) with a cookie-filled month! Choose between my Bakery Style Chocolate Chip Cookies, and/or my Browned Butter Toffee Chocolate Chip Cookies.
Chewy, gooey, and crunchy, both my Bakery Style Chocolate Chip Cookies and Browned Butter Toffee Chocolate Chip Cookies are loaded with flavor, and will surely become your new favorite cookies!
OPTIONAL: You can also make both cookies for BONUS ENTRIES!
I’ve laid out ALL my baking tips for you in the pink tip box on each recipe page + on the challenge landing page.

Here’s how to participate in this challenge:
