Festive Christmas Wreath Bread
Overview
I signed up to participate in an offline event in Beijing last week. It was my first time signing up and I didn’t know anything about it. When I received the notification, I told me that I needed to bring a Christmas-themed delicacy to share with everyone on the day of the event. The first thing that comes to mind related to the Christmas theme is cookies of various shapes, and then painted with patterns of different colors. The festive atmosphere must be very strong. After thinking about it, I started to prepare the materials at home on Saturday. The plan really couldn’t keep up with the changes. After returning home on Friday night, the child’s father said that he had bought a ski ticket for Saturday and wanted to take the children to play. If I didn’t go, he wouldn’t want to go. If this happened, the children would definitely be very unhappy. It would be better to play with them first and then go home early in the afternoon to prepare. , when they arrived at the ski resort, the child and his best friend didn't want to leave. It wasn't until a friend came from out of town and made a phone call that he reluctantly agreed to go home. After arriving home, he chatted with friends he hadn't seen for a long time. It wasn't too early after all the hard work, and the raw materials he failed were not delivered. Now he was anxious. What should I do? I have no choice but to make a simple bread using the materials I have at home. Reference size: 2 8-inch baking pans
