Bundt-tastic



In honor of Hatton's birthday, Bolivia is hosting a dessert party tonight. I made these deeelish mini lemon bundt cakes, recipe courtesy of Nigella Lawson! Here's the recipe doubled. The bundt itself isn't too lemony and I would even add another zest of lemon to make it tart-tastic! Even so, I had to stop myself from eating them all, but they're just so mini and easy to consume! I'm sure we'll see lots o sweet treats tonight.

Happy Friday!

Bake-tastic

Grab some milk folks, because I was on a baking frenzy this weekend. On the menu: pillow cookies (cookie with a brownie inside!), pie on a stick (apple and strawberry) and Hawaiian delight (my sister Debbie's specialty). Perhaps it's the bigger kitchen in my new diggs that makes me want to bake. But it was a lot of fun making these goodies and I think peeps thoroughly enjoyed them! I got all the recipes from bakerella!! I pretty much want to try all the recipes on her site!

Here are the pillow cookies in raw form.


Brownie center, surrounded by cookie, mmmm


They're pretty much a meal in itself...



Pie on a stick...




Moral of the story, I like to bake. Cooking not so much. I like precise instructions, directions and temperatures to follow. The best part about baking is that stuff taste THE BEST right out of the oven. Perhaps you're more of a cook, than a baker? Have me over and we can work something out!!!
