Mistrzostwa w świątecznych wypiekach

Eight bakers have to put their best cookie forward in the first two challenges. First, they make their best holiday cookie using an assigned baking tool, and in the next challenge, they must use holiday ingredients.

The seven remaining bakers take classic holiday flavors into a tasty new territory. In the first challenge, they create a swirled treat using eggnog. Then they have to play nice with varieties of sugar and spice for their second dessert.

The six remaining bakers take on pie. In the first challenge, they have to make their best dessert using store-bought pie crust. In the second challenge, the bakers create three different pies with three different crusts.

The five bakers left in the Holiday Baking Championship take the polarizing fruitcake someplace new and reinvent the biggest holiday cake of all, the yule log.

The four bakers are first tasked to use the classic holiday flavors of peppermint and hot chocolate in a dessert and then create a blown-out holiday breakfast complete with three sweet dishes.

In this epic finale, the three remaining bakers have just one challenge. Each baker constructs holiday gingerbread worlds filled with all sorts of treats. The baker who can impress the judges will take home $50,000.
