Ep 6. Christmas Mischief

In this episode of Christmas Cookie Challenge, titled "Christmas Mischief," the remaining bakers are tasked with creating holiday treats with a mischievous twist. Host Eddie Jackson welcomes the contestants and introduces the judges: pastry chef and cookbook author Gesine Prado, and special guest judge Bridget Lancaster from America's Test Kitchen.

The contestants must first participate in a cookie swap to determine the order they will bake in. Each baker is assigned a classic holiday cookie and must give it a mischievous makeover to create a new flavor and design. The cookies are judged on taste, creativity, and how well they incorporated the mischievous theme.

Next, the bakers must create a new twist on a classic holiday dessert - yule logs. They must use a surprise flavor and incorporate a playful element to make it mischievous. The judges are looking for a yule log that is moist, flavorful, and visually impressive.

Finally, the bakers must create a show-stopping display of holiday treats, playfully themed with mischievous elements. The judges will be looking for creativity, technical skill, and of course, delicious flavors.

Throughout the episode, tensions run high as the bakers struggle to find the right balance of mischievousness and holiday cheer. But in the end, one baker will be crowned the winner and take home the $10,000 prize.

Join Eddie Jackson, Gesine Prado, and Bridget Lancaster for a fun-filled episode of Christmas Cookie Challenge as the bakers put their holiday baking skills to the test with mischievous twists on classic treats.
