    Class takes place on Zoom a free online software. You will receive instructions on how to access the class prior to it starting. Please have a current email on file with us. If you need to cancel one of Tess's classes and you have already been sent a recipe or ingredient list for the class, you will not receive a refund. All of her recipes are originals and are her creative property and will be published in her cookbook. Therefore, we will not be issuing refunds. You may contact us about transferring your enrollment to another participant. Homemade sweets and treats are always wonderful around the holidays and throughout the year as well. Add three wonderful treats to your holiday celebration as you learn to create freshly baked homemade Cinnamon Rolls, luscious Basque Burnt Cheesecake, and velvety Hot Cocoa Bombs! Make them for your family for a memorable holiday breakfast or wrap them up with bows and gift them to those you hold dear. Better yet, create memories and start a new holiday tradition as you learn to make these delicious treats with your children or significant other. After keeping her Copycat Cinnabon® (Cinnamon Roll) recipe a secret for many years, Tess has decided to share it exclusively to those that register for this class. She has often been told that her rolls are considered better than actual Cinnabon® rolls. You will love these billowy, warm, luscious, gooey rolls topped with cream cheese frosting that is out-of-this-world delicious. In addition, new to her holiday dessert class is her version of Basque “Burnt” Cheesecake. The exterior resembles that of a crème brulèe, and the interior is light and more airy than a New York Style Cheesecake and has a “mousse like” consistency. It is masterpiece in and of itself. Also, if interested, learn how to create a wonderful winter treat known as Hot Cocoa Bombs as the cinnamon rolls are rising, and the cheesecake is baking. Cocoa Bombs make for a wonderful treat in front of a warm fire during the cold Minnesota winter or any time of year. Note: check equipment needs at the end of the post. Be ready to keep all recipes secret as they are only shared with participants of this class. You will receive a list of ingredients in advance to allow enough time for shopping and prep. A professionally made PDF packet of Tess's personal recipes is also included. Note: Tess’s recipes are copyrighted and are only shared with those who register for this class. Make it a date night or family night as you create lasting memories in your kitchen. This class will take place on Zoom, a free on-line software. You will receive instructions on how to access the class prior to it starting. As an added bonus, Tess has created a private group and a public group on Facebook for participants of her cooking classes. Everyone will receive an optional invite to the groups. Come join the fun. Equipment needs: A cocoa bomb silicone mold will be needed to create the cocoa bombs and is available at most craft stores or online. A minimum of 2 ¼ inch cocoa bomb mold is recommended or a 3” mold works well too. A spring form pan (8 or 9-inch interior) will be needed for the cheesecake. More details to come.

If children are participating, adult supervision is required. If friends, adult children, or extended family members are gathering for a fun night together, each household must register separately even if participating together.
