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?
i love baking cookies too! Just bought some ingredients and might bake them this week 🙆🏻 really glad cos last time I baked was last year for graduation 😅
@KSWQueen that's awesome!! So, did you end up doing some baking this past week? If so, what did you bake? 
I had absolutely no energy this past week, so definitely didn't do any baking, I'm not even sure if I cooked anything...haha!!
@Moj haha I finally did! made some chocolate chip cookies. But i messed up the ratios so it doesn't taste as good haha. And aww, I hope you'll get to do some baking, or cooking, or even both, this week then hehe 😛 Oh btw, since there's still some butter left, I'm planning to do more baking, any recommends? 🙆🏻
@KSWQueen that's awesome that you did some baking!! I'm sure even with the ratios not quite right...it was still chocolate chip infused, so it'll have been delicious anyway. 
I've been pretty exhausted, so haven't done much of any cooking or baking this week either....lol. About to eat a salad! I hope on the weekend or next week I'll be a bit less busy, and have more energy and make some good stuff. 
Hmm....recommendations, are you looking for something healthy? Or not so much...lol!! Chocolate peanut butter chip cookies are always yummy, or puffed wheat cake!! Or hmmm...maybe some banana chocolate chip muffins? So many options!! Let me know what you decide on!
@Moj haha yes thank you! Not enough chocolate chips, and probably vanilla essence too haha 😅 Mmm sounds good haha. Lemme know what u make! 😄 Haha not necessarily healthy, I don't think I'm a very health conscious person. OMG me and my mom were ocnsidering muffins, but we were thinking either choco chips since there's still some or bananas cos thats the usual, never thought of combining the two. haha alrighty, that's if I end up baking haha.
@KSWQueen oh dear, not enough chocolate chips is a tragedy! 
Be sure to add extra in whatever you're making next to balance it out...haha!!
Banana chocolate chip muffins are one of my favourites to make, if you try them let me know what you think!! I rarely make banana muffins without adding the chocolate chips, lol!!
@Moj UGH i feel u haha. I thought I threw in too much actually haha. Mmm, it does sound really good! I'll be sure to try it out soon! And now I'm craving bananas. OMG, I just remembered my mom bought a bunch of bananas yesterday hahah
I love baking too, especially lemon cakes ! Or anything that has chocolate in it
@Mablue anything with chocolate, haha...you're someone after my own mind/stomach/dreams!! I love me some chocolate!! I haven't made much with lemon in it...what would be your favourite recipe to make with lemon?
@Moj Haha, chocolate is really popular, it's kinda rare to find someone who doesn't like it ! (not saying there's none). As for lemon, I like to make homemade ice tea with it, and lemon cake like this one:
Usually they're quite popular among my family!
@Moj Yesterday I made a blackberry cobble (I think that's what you'd call it - blackberries with sugar, covered with a fluffy dough made of of egg, milk, butter, sugar and baking powder) - it's my new favourite!
@cloudySummer that sounds absolutely delicious!! I love blackberries! I bet the cobbler was so good!
@Moj
My favorite dish to bake is an Apple Pie.....
@RideaRainbow I've made a pie a couple times, but not very many!! I love to eat apple pie, but haven't perfected the crust of a pie yet, lol!! Apple pie to me is a feeling of fall, comfort and just 
...ahhh, pure joy! 
@Moj

Might take me awhile to find you @RideaRainbow, I'll just follow the scent of apple pie though!! Surely I'll find you eventually.
@Moj

Here is the recipe (very simple, btw) - https://www.cleverfiles.com/howto/apple-pie.html
@Emma88 That looks really good!! :O
@Moj The go to item that I bake is brownies but a unique thing I bake is "Tomato soup cake" this is a vintage/retro cake that I baked once(would bake it again). I have not baked it in a while, this cake was said to be author Sylvia Plath's fave cake and I recommend it if you guys want to try/bake/eat it. It almost tastes like a carrot or a spice cake, now I do not like tomato soup but I swear that you do not taste it. I will leave the recipe here:
Ingredients: 2 cups flour,1 tbsp. baking powder,1/2 tsp. baking soda,1/2 tsp. ground cloves,1/2 tsp. ground cinnamon,1/2 tsp. ground nutmeg,1/2 cup butter, softened,1 cup sugar,2 large eggs,1 11 oz. can tomato soup,condensed,1/2 chopped walnuts(optional),1 cup raisins(optional),1tsp. vanilla(optional).

Take a knife and move it along the outside of the pans and pop out cakes on a plate or any other surface. When they cool put on cream cheese frosting. Cream cheese frosting ingredients and directions-16 oz. cream cheese, softened,1/2 butter softened,2 tsp. vanilla,1 pinch salt,5 cups confectioners sugar(powered). The cream cheese and butter should be room temp. pop in microwave to make it more soft.Mix the two ingredients into a creamy mixture.Mix in vanilla and salt, add sugar a little at a time, beat until smooth.
Frost the cake pop in the fridge untill cold, take cake out and slice it plate it and enjoy!
