Even includes the "Murder She Baked" Christmas movie "Plum Pudding," which I admit, is my absolute favorite of all the MSB films! I mean, I love them all, but to have this mysteries story set during the holidays makes it even sweeter! Details on each movie below!

The "Murder, She Baked: Complete Movie Collection"

contains all 5 original movies

from the Hallmark Movies & Mysteries series:

A Chocolate Chip Cookie Mystery

A Plum Pudding Mystery

A Peach Cobbler Mystery

A Deadly Recipe

Just Desserts

A Chocolate Chip Cookie Mystery:

Hannah Swensen is the shop owner of the Cookie Jar, where much of the town's gossip percolates along with the strong coffee. But when a mysterious murder occurs, Hannah turns into a culinary detective and finds herself trying to solve the crime while getting caught in an unexpected romantic mystery of her own.

Murder She Baked: A Plum Pudding Mystery:

The Cookie Jar's busiest time of the year also happens to be the most wonderful time...for Christmas cookies and Hannah's own special plum pudding. She's busy as can be and loving it. She also gets a kick out of 'Lunatic Larry Jaeger's Crazy Elf Christmas Tree Lot', a kitschy carnival taking place smack-dab in the middle of the village green. Larry thinks he's crazy like a fox with his wild business schemes, but this time, the entrepreneur may have bitten off more than he can chew. Rumor has it that Larry's in the red - an idea that takes a sinister turn when Hannah discovers he's dead in his own office...It seems there are quite a few suspects - including his bitter ex-wife, his ex-partner's daughter, a woman he was wooing, and the Crazy Elf Tree lot's extremely exasperated investors...Now, with so many suspects to investigate and the twelve days of Christmas ticking away, Hannah's running out of time to nab a murderous Scrooge who doesn't want her to see the New Year.

Murder She Baked: A Peach Cobbler Mystery:

Sitting in her nearly empty store, Hannah Swensen can only hope that the popularity of the new Magnolia Blossom Bakery is just a passing fad. The southern hospitality of Eden Lake's two newest residents, Melanie and Vanessa Quinn, is grating on Hannah's nerves -- and cutting into her profits. Then Hannah finds Melanie shot to death. Everyone in town knew the Cookie Jar's business was suffering...which makes Hannah a suspect.

Murder She Baked: A Deadly Recipe:

With her brother-in-law, Deputy Bill Todd, running against gruff lawman Sheriff Grant in a heated sheriff election, an expecting sister ready to deliver, and a scary encounter with a car thief on her mind - Hannah feels her life has reached its boiling point. But things continue to heat up when she discovers the body of Sheriff Grant - bludgeoned while holding one of her homemade fudge cupcakes - and Bill becomes the prime suspect. Determined to prove Bill's innocence, Hannah sets out to solve the crime stirring up secrets and scandals, including disgruntled cops, vindictive wives and a trio of dangerous criminals.

Murder She Baked: Just Desserts:

Hannah Swensen is thrilled when she is chosen as a guest for the first Eden Lake Dessert Bake-Off, but when fellow judge, Coach Boyd Watson is found murdered, crime-solving baker extraordinaire Hannah Swensen (Alison Sweeney) works alongside her detective beau Mike Kingston (Cameron Mathison) to figure out a recipe for murder played out in the middle of her first-ever televised bake-off.

All FIVE of these "Murder She Baked" Movies are the perfect recipe for a binge-watching movie night! You can enjoy some popcorn, or your favorite dessert, watch Hannah bake and solve mysteries around Eden Lake!
