WOJ: ... if someone whacks the being that is, for all intents and purposes, Baba Yaga, and then Mab succeeds, then Mab becomes the new Baba Yaga, and Molly gets drawn up to Mab, and they have to find someone else to become the new Lady ...

Thank you, that's helpful!
And (re the OP) confirms that Harry has indeed met the Baba Yaga!

All good. I just googled Dresden Files Baba Yaga and found the quote.
Conspiracy Theorist:
Direct quote of WOJ please, all I am getting is speculation on Reddit and a separate reference to the Paranet papers which only says Baba Yaga is not Fae
I would point out Miss Lapland is not Fae being a Finnish Witch, and the only allusion to Mother Winter not being Fae is her Iron Teeth. Iron is one of the restriction placed upon the Fae to even the playing field with mortals, but the mothers have virtually no interaction with the Mortal World.

User @Con provided the direct quote, above.
Taking one of the phrases provided, Google says it comes from:
https://wordof.jim-butcher.com/index.php/word-of-jim-woj-compilation/woj-on-the-fae/
Conspiracy Theorist:
Already searched that link and there is nothing specific on Baba Yaga, and although I don’t have the Paranet Papers, that is supposed to be specific. As they are canon, the papers should supersede a non-specific WOJ.
For a long time Baba Yaga has been a character in the RPG, and for a long-time the best fit by far was Mother Winter, this likely where this question arose in the first place on Reddit. Jim had obviously researched and intended to use Baba Yaga in the files in some form and inserted her into the RPG. The question though was when? Cold Days? The Law? Some point not yet reached in the narrative? Maybe she pops up in the Time Travel book in Tunguska (we have dragons deaths to resolve).
At the moment there are two candidates and neither are conclusive just what Jim wants.
