What's your favourite thing to bake?
I love baking!! I don't always have a chance to bake, or the energy, but it's one of my hobbies I enjoy most!
Yesterday I baked two kinds of cookies and then shared them with a couple neighbours and brought my parents a bunch. It was so nice to spend some time baking again and be able to share my treats with others.
My favourite thing to bake are one of the kinds of cookies I made yesterday...Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip cookies. So easy, yummy and to top it off gluten free!!
What things do you enjoy baking most?
Cookies!
I made a chocolate cake recipe and it's so frickin good I love it!
I like to bake scones in the shape of hearts; I also like to bake brownies, and cupcakes.
I enjoy eating baked food does that count
Question in my head, I like to listen to anyone's thoughts.
1. How do you justify the "calories" when consuming baked goods? Regardless of healthy, unhealhty, guilt-free goods. Somehow it is easier to overconsume baked goods, compared to normally prepared foods, despite the same ingredients.
2. How do you justify the "electricity" costs for baking, compared to other means of preparation.
3. How do you justify the "effort/time/monetary" costs for baking, if it is a daily means for your meal preparation (i.e. kind of alot of healthy meals are also recommending baking)
4. How do you... actually "patiently" wait for the baked goods to cool down, before consumption. Likewise similarly for those that requires pre-prepared time (i.e. proofing, or refridgerated before baking)
5. How do you justify, not having to justify anything?
I love baking...scones are my favorite thing to bake :)

Sound very tempting, wish I could bake/cook. I'm more of a ping person let the microwave do the work. Very lazy but it works for me.
@lazyKatz maybe you should give it a try sometime? Baking can be very relaxing :)
@Raziel1226
It's just not my thing Chinese takeaway and chip shops are more my thing
@lazyKatz Gotcha :) I love me some Chinese takeout too!
@lazyKatz
actually katz, microwave "baking" does work too - warning : to a certain extent
its just the expectations must be slightly lower, because of the different method of "baking".
but got to becareful because not everything may turn out well.
I like to bake, it doesnt always turn out great. I like making eclairs. It all comes down to a good recipe and VERY specific instructions.
@Whywoman111
YUM! Got a good recipe for eclairs that you'd be willing to share?
Chocolate chip cookies and red velvet cake
I have this vanilla cake (basic i know) recipe that I absolutely love, and also this whipped chocolate frosting recipe that I like to put with it.
Peanut butter cookies or banana bread
