Emily Henegar '18 will show off her baking skills on national television soon.

Emily is scheduled to appear on an upcoming episode of Food Network's Christmas Cookie Challenge. The exact air date is not yet known.

On the show, five bakers compete to prove their holiday cookie-making skills for the chance to win a cash prize.  Chefs, including Gesine Bullock-Prado, Ree Drummond, and Eddie Jackson, judge the cookie masterpieces.
