Plus: It's our 50th Baking Together column (and recipe) with Abby Dodge
🎂 Time Flies: And that makes 50 Baking Together recipes!
The next time you hear from me it will be Christmas Day, the first day of Hanukkah, and the day before the start of Kwanzaa. Yikes, where does the time go? And speaking of time, I can’t believe this: we’ve got Abby Dodge’s 50th Baking Together recipe and column for you this week. Yes, 50!
I remember being so happy that my Fine Cooking magazine pal (Abby was test kitchen director before and during the time I was editor) was willing to contribute her expertise to Cook the Vineyard when I asked her back in the fall of 2019.
We started out with One-Bowl Vanilla Cupcakes with Milk Chocolate Frosting and some great information from Abby – her Six Steps To Better Baking. I highly recommend reading those again.

Since then, Abby has given us so many incredible recipes with her signature detailed instructions and flavor twists. Check out the entire Baking Together archive.
