Holiday Baking Championship (2014)

Episode Overview

Host Jesse Palmer hosts a festive cookie exchange, challenging bakers to whip up bold, seasonal cookies—no decorated sugar cookies or gingerbread permitted! Judges Carla Hall, Duff Goldman, and Nancy Fuller conduct a blind tasting to determine the winner of the preheat, while the bakers also cast their votes for the cookie they enjoyed the most. Next, the bakers must step up their game by crafting holiday cookie cakes that incorporate two distinct cookie varieties, consist of at least four layers, and include a unique flavor twist to complement the creation.
