[@CSaffitz]

If you’re reading this… what are you baking this holiday season?

[@kjdude8765]

Just made Marzipan Stollen and will also make some Marzipan Horns. Made your cutout cookies this past weekend.

[@adrianbceleste]

Biscotti!

[@laurenschenck5355]

Peppermint chocolate cookies

[@persondessert9366]

brownies! maybe coffee coffee cake or poppy seed almond cake too!

[@caitly]

Chai-spiced brown butter Snickerdoodles are a staple in my life! I’m known for them by my friends and family :)

[@VioletTheGeek]

I love that little "Mmm" every time Claire tastes a finished project, and the "Verdict: Mmm" cracks me up every time!

[@vigilantcosmicpenguin8721]

I'm always in anticipation about the verdict, and the verdict is always the same.

[@zakc7504]

A matrix of recipes by common ingredient ratios is literally the sexiest idea I've ever heard. I would pay good money for that.

[@justinbandy3914]

I've been using Claire's videos as a "get ready for bed" routine the past few weeks, and I I've been anticipating this video for the past few days. I might be addicted.

[@rebeccaburrow7199]

My 3yr old daughter asks for Dessert Person specifically by name before going to bed. 👍 you are not alone!

[@vigilantcosmicpenguin8721]

@@rebeccaburrow7199 Smart 3-year-old. :)

[@macaoron]

Watching cooking videos before going to bed is part of my routine now. It’s very relaxing and calming!

[@Kaliincarnate]

I watch her to fall asleep to

[@emilyjones5062]

It's my go-to when I wake up in the middle of the night and am trying to fall back to sleep!

[@rumbleinthekitchen_Amy]

Thank you for the fun edits, especially the 13:12 one. It's been a really rough couple of days and the sheer silliness was 100% needed & appreciated.

[@DeliaLee8]

Yes! And the ice cream snowman face :)

[@runnbunnyrunn]

I just rewatched Julie and Julia, and not being from the US I couldn't fully grasp Julie's love for Julia. But watching you and falling in love with your personality, I also now want to cook everything you're teaching. We're getting a KitchenAid Mixer for Christmas so I'm super excited to make any of your recipes haha

[@91frankthetank]

OMG you're gonna love your KitchenAid. What are you going to make first?

[@felicitypreston8715]

. Bor5 vian

[@runnbunnyrunn]

@@91frankthetank Definitely the Focaccia!!! And then the Confetti Cake hehe. I think about that cake at least once a week (aka every Thursday) haha

[@ElloLoJo]

That’s so exciting! I just treated myself to a Kmix for my birthday and OH MY GOD I MADE BABKA IN LIKE 10 MINUTES* ITS AMAZING * does not include proving, baking and cooling. I probably didn’t need to tell you that

[@91frankthetank]

@@runnbunnyrunn yummmmmm 🤤

[@celiazamarripa3375]

I love the relationship that Claire has with the production team!! Vinny counts down the time making Claire rush but they leave the footage in anyway 🤣

[@Kaliincarnate]

Agreed Vinny and Clair must be banging because their chemistry is on point!

[@kayliealexis3526]

@@Kaliincarnate Claire is literally married. People can just have a flow of good vibes and energy without it being sexual😕

[@estahlke]

The fact that every verdict is “MMM” 😂 The editing on this whole channel is 👌🏼*chef’s kiss*

[@AllegraVivace]

This is such a cool idea for a video. I've made the brownies so many times so I'm really interested to try new applications for the recipe.

[@emo6577]

Definitely! Giving some jumping off points to be creative with a recipe is great as a person that’s a bit of a novice

[@rajivronald]

This has to be one of my favourite episodes so far. It felt like we were along with Claire while she was recipe testing and I love seeing the way her mind works in adapting the recipes. I hope we get more videos with this format

[@CrudeCulinary]

14:38 you can tell the editor had a great time with this easter egg the camera operator gave them. 😂 Love brownies! Thank you for the constant inspiration, Claire!

[@katherinebowerman2066]

Def 😆 at this one too

[@robertm.9515]

The dear at 13:10 in the window

[@NiGHTSaturn]

15:31 HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA I’M DEAD 😂😂😂 The fact that they did/found a nice rock riff and made it EXACTLY like the beat she did is hilarious. Omg.

[@tom_rhone]

More baking universe vids like this! Watching you adjusting the recipes helps me understand the fundamentals of baking more clearly. Really enjoyable.

[@valeriebrit100]

Claire, not only are you a phenomenal baker and teacher, but you also have the MOST hilarious editor. 🤣🤣

[@Pakkens_Backyard]

this is just Claire flexing her pastry knowledge/application :D

[@persondessert9366]

im actually gonna make brownies for our christmas get together this weekend so this is just the perfect video this week!!!

[@macaoron]

I love when Claire goes off-book, really goes to show her culinary knowledge and the science behind baking! If Claire decides to make a baking galaxy chart into a poster I’d be the first one to pre-order it :D

[@MaeganJohnson0105]

The editor for claire's channel deserves an award. Love it

[@Kaliincarnate]

To the editor, you are hilarious and always make my day and in combo with Claire’s humble humour it’s just perfection

[@reneegencur2469]

I really enjoyed seeing you create new things in front of the camera. I know that you have a high level of confidence in your base recipe AND a great deal of experience behind you, but I found your work pretty amazing.

[@angelicacuevas493]

I know we all love when Claire post but I LOVEEE when Claire post new videos. So calming and I actually watch and would make these things

[@TheAmber197]

Hilarious editing on this one! The deer in the window and the heavy metal music as you banged your spoon on the bowl were my faves!

[@AndreaGonzalez-qf1cw]

I’ve been making your forever brownies for the holidays and everyone has been LOVING it!! You have no idea, everyone is obsessed with the brownies😄😄

[@becspresso]

I always love the little faces added to the videos, like to the skillet this time or to the mixer in other videos. Plus the forest critters passing by the cabin window :) Thanks for that.

[@patrickkim4834]

"... I'm constantly, like, making judgment calls that I think I'm gonna regret, and then I usually do. But I just can't help myself." Same, gurl. Same. Love you, Claire!!!

[@jelly.bean19]

Baking, for me, comes and goes in waves. I don't have much of a sweet tooth, but the act of baking can be an incredibly interesting and fun process. I will be baking some chewy molasses cookies today but now I *have* to make some brownie cookies, too, before the year is up. Love this time of the year!

[@MRSECONDBEST]

Claire I needed your ray of sunshine this bleak thursday - it has been a week. I need to send you some money because this is my therapy!

[@dianehutchinson9257]

The toe floof on the silkie chicken is out of control and I love it! So cute! (The recipes also look amazing -- that skillet brownie, drool)

[@margareth.7000]

claire, can i just say THANK YOU FOR BEING YOU. your vids have been in my feed for probably over a year and it wasnt until the last few months that i started watching. since then, you've become my go-to video when I'm feeling down and need something warm and loving to listen to. without fail, you make me smile and distract me from my problems. you're incredibly genuine and human and i can't get enough, i need more people like you in my life. so again, thank you. and so far I'm just making all the cookies i want this holiday!! chocolate chip walnut, oatmeal m&m, oatmeal chocolate chip...probably time to venture back into macarons so my family doesn't get burnt out on cookies & chocolate!!

[@rebeccaburrow7199]

May i humble suggest snickerdoodles?

[@lol-qw6mj]

your videos are so comforting claire

[@kellychow9443]

I would actually love to see the dessert galaxy! Maybe I'm just a bit too nerdy (even when it comes to things like baking) but I've always dreamed of a chart that shows how more/less flour or really anything affects a recipe!! Would totally buy this if Claire ever made merch like this!!!

[@persondessert9366]

honestly love this video idea - elevating her base recipes into different ways! looking forward to more videos like this 🥰

[@sidhedanu]

More recipe testing in front of the camera, please! Absolutely brilliant episode.

[@AxewXwater]

13:11 Is nobody gonna talk about that “deer” outside of the window? That thing freaking startled me!

[@sidhedanu]

They did the same thing in the last episode, so I was a little prepared. 😂

[@emy7873]

I really like this format! Would love to see more like this, it really is nice to learn more

[@laureltree8047]

Very excited to make the cake version for my friends since they're not big fans of frosting but like cake :) also Rudolph in the window was so cute!

[@EdgarX007]

When sugar is beaten into an egg-white foam, it dissolves in the protein film on the surface of the air bubbles. This sugary syrup film prevents the proteins from drying out and tightening up too fast. Once you add sugar, you can beat the egg whites without worrying too much about their getting lumpy or overbeaten

[@sarahborgstrom159]

Alternative title for this episode “Claire Safftiz Quietly Tricks You Into Baking More Difficult Things” . Thanks for this. I’ve been looking for a good chocolate cookie recipe and I’m excited to try morphing brownies into cookies.

[@chelseahahn5763]

I would love a video on easy ways to use egg whites/yolks leftover from recipes that only call for part of the egg!

[@kjdude8765]

Meringue cookies for the whites, custard or chocolate creme for the yolks.

[@sirephlyrrian6242]

i love the Verdict: mmm so much, it just makes me happy instantly

[@OriginalElysian]

15:31 Excellent music selection lmao. The beat was perfect!

[@chapman1569]

I love the little peeks at the animals, and also when the reindeer came by the window! Love the humor and the recipes. Thanks

[@jilrene]

Earlier this week I was wondering if I could make the Forever Brownies from Dessert Person in a skillet. I'm serious! And here you are making almost exactly what I envisioned! I have chocolate infused with mint instead of Andes Mints. Thank you!!!

[@Bananna219]

I love your videographer and editor. The humor in this video is great!

[@lechatbotte.]

Ooh brownies no matter how you serve them up they’re yummy. These recipes are so intriguing. Claire is the Einstein of desserts

[@miseentrope]

Rudolph! Loving the "selective attention test" window at the cabin. Claire and crew 🥰.

[@summermoninger6695]

I’m so thrilled to see an episode including the chocolate peppermints 💕 going to the store for ingredients immediately upon finishing the video!

[@SB-rx3rc]

I truly appreciate the video editing. Brownies are my fav so I hope to make the additional ways soon :) Thanks Claire

[@miagranade7457]

the cold open in this one is off the charts.... LOL literally! yall are funny

[@MarcHatePage]

the editing on these videos is so funny, I love it.

[@AussieAngeS]

All 3 look absolutely fantastic, and I really love that you’ve made 3 different recipes using a brownie batter 😍 such a great idea. Thank you Claire I enjoy each and every one of your videos.

[@katherinegulas1466]

I just made the cookies yesterday and they're everything I love about brownies in cookie form. They're so light yet full of flavor. They also have my 2-year-old niece's stamp of approval.

[@nikkilovesrocks]

Claire I have to tell you, your "Dessert Person" book was the talk at my local Coffee shop! We were all saying what a great 🎁 it makes, along with your KZbin channel demos! Thank You! 😁

[@jnb22019]

Just bought the book for myself for Christmas! I'll be starting off with the confetti cake to celebrate Christmas.

[@GregCurtin45]

Definitely a top ten episode. I think I would add cold coffee in exchange for plain water and put the Andy's candies in the cookies. ♥

[@rohitagarwal329]

The editing in this video: Chef kiss

[@bloomwoww]

Claire really sums up what I love about baking I love herrr

[@danielpedigo72]

I really love all your desert recipes and every time you add a face to your appliances, I fall in love more lol. It's so fun trying to spot the little animated faces.

[@sofiapasotto9381]

Besides the fact that i'm in love with Claire and the whole crew, can we pleeeeeeeease see how an episode is recorded? I'm interested in the whole setup and process of it. Seems like good fun merged with high professionality :)

[@Galactic_Centre]

Ridiciously cute chickens!

[@jenovapooh]

I would really love to see Claire bake some of her recipes at high elevation! Good excuse for a working vacation, too

[@japanda1995]

[@neilsvedberg]

I love the cabin set, it's so calming!

Claire and her universe at the beggining. 😂 I’m making these brownies this weekend for gifting. 💓

i was just going back to sleep but not without watching dessert person first now :)

[@christophermabee5045]

This is awesome! I would love to see the process Claire goes through testing her recipes from start to finish… like finding what to test to finished product… I loved this!

[@buzzamidostuff3238]

I love Claire. She's so dang funny and authentic

[@martindc]

I LOVE this episode. I know it's older because I've seen videos in the remodeled kitchen at the cabin, but I'm a recent convert to the Temple of Saffitz. This show is brilliant because it shows, again, the way you use different techniques to get different and glorious results. I just played with my own brownie recipe yesterday to punch up the chocolate flavor, and it wound up a little too gooey.Thanks for another demonstration of the - you call it miracle, I call it alchemy - of baking. Thank you!

[@KeyserTheRedBeard]

fascinating upload Claire Saffitz x Dessert Person. I smashed that thumbs up on your video. Always keep up the really good work.

[@wbsimpletaste3317]

Thanks for the recipe Claire 💗

[@elisacastillo9944]

Claire brings me such peace 💖

[@karenb8200]

The brownie cake really reminds me of kladdkaka, a Swedish chocolate cake. I made it for the first time for Thanksgiving and thought that it tasted like a really cool brownie cake hybrid. I think I'll do a side by side of your recipe and the kladdkaka recipe and see if they are similar! Great video!

[@Nexus2Eden]

I love your candor ... such an entertaining Chef! Your passion is infectious. I’m going to have to make the cookies now. Subbed!

[@persondessert9366]

claire describing memes is the funniest and cutest ever please

[@karenstitchygirl]

Great video with brownie ideas! Nice touch to have Rudolph the red nose reindeer walk by your window. 😊

[@RobustFilms1]

The queen makes her return! Ive been going through your recipees this Xmas break. Molasses and Best Chocolate Chip cookies down, onto the coffee cake!

[@millielopez]

Great concept for a video, taking one base recipe and turning it into three different ones! 🙌🏼😊

[@folkusonme]

Ok whaaaaat the editinggg!!!! It’s so good 🥺 does Vinny do it?

[@krisrow]

I feel like I need a compilation of all of Claire's "mmm"s at the end of the season.

[@vigilantcosmicpenguin8721]

they should be combined into one long "MMMMMMMMMMMMMMM"

[@Hannahbeckett894]

I love love love this idea. It makes me want to be more adventurous with transforming other recipes I love (especially the ones from DP)!

[@santipapa6986]

You sorcerer how dare you to tempt me like this in the middle of a Thursday

[@LM-jj3bb]

Being diabetic is me just living vicariously through dessert person videos 😅 hope Claire uploads a sugar free (or even a low GI!!!) recipe soon 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

I love that you used the "Nazaré Confusa" meme at the beginning of the video Much love from Brazil 🥰

[@sailorarwen6101]

[@scottemily00]

Great video, Claire! I actually loved the fact that you were “experimenting” with these recipes - it helped me to know some of the things to do to problem solve in my own kitchen. More experimenting videos requested! :)

[@doloresboston8571]

I love the recipes….and the faux deer at the window was cute 😊

[@simsandsurgery1]

The malted forever brownies are also really good if you cut out the malted part and add almond liqueur and almond flour if you can’t do the malt part because of gluten intolerance. I also dollop some Nutella on just before baking and swirl it in to the mixture a little bit. I make that for a lot of get togethers because I have a lot of gluten intolerant friends. It’s a recipe that doesn’t want for the flour. In some recipes that are adapted it’s awful because it’s trying to be a version with flour but without the structure it provides, but with brownies it seems the flour just isn’t that important for its not being there to mess it up. I bet it would also taste really good with hazelnut liqueur too.

[@mondaynightballroom20]

Claire's ancestor on the other side of the Red Sea: It's, like, kind of a miracle. And that's always exciting.
