To say New Year's Eve was rocking with stars is an understatement to say the least!

That's why it's called New Year's Rockin Eve, silly! LOLz!

In the first celebration without the beloved Dick Clark, Ryan Seacrest and Jenny McCarthy hosted the annual event in Times Square.

And the list of performers was PHENOMENAL!!!!

Led by Taylor Swift (when she wasn't kissing Harry Styles!), PSY (with new bestie MC Hammer), and Carly Rae Jepsen, stars came out from all over to help celebrate the new year as well pay tribute to the late Clark.

Even Mayor Bloomberg got into the action with Rockettes!!!!!!!

Check out the AHMAZING pics from last night's celebration and Happy New Year, everyone!

So CUTEz!!!!!

Lance Bass and beau Michael Turchin joined Kim Kardashian at the 1OAK nightclub in Vegas and counted down to 2013 with the mommy to be.

The couple sported red and blue blazers, setting off their own brand of red, white, and blue fireworks for New Year's Eve.

They fit in perfectly with the festivities, right?!?!

Sad…this is definitely NOT the way to ring in the New Year….

Two people were shot and killed during a Sacramento fireworks show when a bar fight spilled into the street.

40,000 people (including families with children) gathered in Old Sacramento at 9pm, when the shots buzzed through the streets.

Three people were also wounded as mounted cops and helicopters alerted revelers to go home.

Scary!!!! We just hope things have settled down and we send our condolences to the victim's families.

It's a shame that a few people can ruin so many people's nights.

Super mom!

It looks like Jessica Alba’s family must have gobbled up all their goodies over the holidays because she had to restock their kitchen ASAP.

If anyone can do it, it would be Mz. Alba.

Momma Alba managed to grab all she needed to supply her family with healthy eats from Whole Foods in El Lay without hubby Cash Warren's help.

And she looked damn good doing it!

Even if she did look a little grumpy getting stuck with grocery duties.

Now, we wonder what she made us for dinner…?

Do U know who Lauryn Cohen, aka the Bella Baker is??

Well, she's the queen of sweet, and is known for her creative treats and crafts! She recently launched a holiday baking guide called Sweet Gifts, filled with innovative and delicious recipes for the holidays.

She wants us to kick off the new year in style — so listen up! Here are some of her favorite NYE recipes!

Homemade Fortune Cookies:

5 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 egg whites
1 cup superfine sugar
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 pinch salt
3 tablespoons heavy whipping cream
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 teaspoons peach schnapps (optional)
mini muffin tin

Write a message or resolution on a small strip of paper. Preheat oven to 375°F.

Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Melt butter in the microwave and set aside to cool.

In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine egg whites and sugar for 1 minute. Mix in flour and salt; beat until incorporated. Mix in the melted butter, heavy cream, vanilla, and peach schnapps and beat until smooth.

Place 4 or 5 teaspoon-size scoops of batter at least 3 inches apart on prepared baking sheets (you make only a few cookies at a time because you will need to work quickly with them once they are removed from the oven). Using the back of the spoon, smooth batter into flat, thin, even rounds about 3 inches in diameter (the batter should be as thin as possible; otherwise it will be difficult to fold the cookies once they come out of the oven). Bake 8–9 minutes or until edges are just lightly golden brown. Remove from oven.

Working very quickly, place a paper strip in the center of the cookie. Fold cookie in half and gently press down on the round side to seal it in place.

Take the two corners of the straight folded side and pull them in toward each other, coaxing the middle of the cookie inward to form the familiar shape of the fortune cookie. Place folded cookies immediately in a mini muffin tin to hold their shape until firm. Makes 30 fortune cookies.

Tip

Peach schnapps adds an unexpected bite of flavor to these crispy cookies, and it happens to be my grandma’s favorite flavor addition to many of her cookie recipes. If making these with the kids, omit the schnapps or just add it to half the batter.

Mmmmmmm!!

That all sounds SUPER delicious!!

Now U can celebrate the New Year with an Asian flair!
