  1. MMmm! That cupcake looks way better than the Hostess one! Last night me and my friend Sarah spent the whole evening, ( 5 1/2 hours!) baking a cake for my friend Heather (Sarah's sister) sweet sixteen birthday cake. Her birthday was last month, and me and Sarah had made her a Kit Kat Cake. She liked it so much she wanted it for her party! So we made rectangle kit kat cakes, and a LOT of cookies and cream cupcakes. I don't have anything but leftover pictures, but we were very proud of are finished products. The taste was excellent!
  2. dystopiandreamgirl: That is the most beautiful cake I've seen!
  3. Thanks! This recipe isn't one of Carole's, I found the RECIPE HERE. It's very light, fluffy, sweet and soft. I used a hand method because I have no bread machine, and a different filling and icing. Don't get me wrong! I LOVE Carole's dough!! But for cinnamon rolls this one is so much easier, I'd use her's for something more...elegant, I guess, Like her other yeasted cakes. (Plus I didn't have enough ingredients to make her dough )
  4. Ah! I forgot I made cinnamon rolls on Saturday! Tasted great this morning for breakfast. Different recipe than usual, and my new favorite. Simmone, what exactly is a zebra cake, anyway? It looks so pretty! Is it vanilla and chocolate?
  5. Kim, the cake looks awesome, I love how you did the top! I really want some of that zebra cake!
  6. Deformed or not, they look delicious. Do you mind sharing the recipe? ← No problem! The recipe is here, along with my first time making them.
  7. Renka, those cookies look amazing! Especially the last ones!! Chocolate chip cookies pie, with substitute chocolate chips made with a crusty fudge icing piped and frozen. (I have no chocolate chips and no money ) Frozen Ricotta Cream Pie with Caramel Sauce Iced cake brownies (too cakey for me, I wanted a brownie, not cake!) Deformed chocolate chip cookies, with substitute chocolate chips Pecan Upside down cake with fluffly cream cheese frosting The frosting was so light and fluffy, tasted almost like Cinnabon!
  8. The batter for the chocolate pound cake is the batter from Carole's "black and white pound cake" but I made all the batter chocolate instead of half, and added the cheesecake filling. That's her chocolate streusel. I'm very obsessed with her recipes and how easy it is to play around with them. That pound cake looks so good! I may have to make that one now.
  9. Wow, guys! Everything looks so amazing...but those donuts are calling me! Here's what I've made lately Vanilla cake with sweet pastry cream, chocolate ganache and chocolate buttercream. (picture is after it was in the fridge) Chocolate pound cake with cheesecake filling and chocolate streusel with very finely chopped almonds. Kit Kat cake- chocolate cake filled with chocolate buttercream, crushed KitKat bars and topped with chocolate fudge icing. Kit kats "glued" on the outside with more buttercream.
  10. Wow. That's really gorgeous!! I have no idea what to say other than you're amazing!
  11. Oreo cookies spread with homemade chocolate buttercream. Yum.

    Dinner! 2008

    It was fairly warm today so Dad got out the grill and cooked up some ribs. He let me spread the glaze and season 'em. Prawncrackers: The French chicken looks so good!
  13. Cali, I've made this recipe many times. it doesn't rise in the refrigerator at all,as far as I can tell. I'm not sure, I think it rises a little bit once I shape it but not much, once again I have a hard time telling, so obviously it can't rise much... when I bake it though it poofs up and tastes wonderful. Have you tried baking the dough yet? I use instant yeast as well. I always stir it in with the liquid like she says, but I don't let it sit so long. I'm not sure what's wrong with your dough. I really wish I had a better answer for you!
  14. I've never sketched the things I make before, mostly because I've never gone too into plating, or decorating. I love to drawing though, maybe more than baking. Next time I'm going to sketch out watch I make, and put more effort into decorating. Happy birthday Gfron! I can't wait to see your cake, it sounds amazing and the sketch looks really awesome.
  15. Gfron, your cake idea sounds simply amazing. Looking at the Dacquoise posts, I think I understand what it is. It would certainly make a beautiful cake! I see how it would really resemble a Kit Kat, and I can almost imagine how it would taste.Part of me really wants to do this cake, my the other part of me, and my mom and my sister, think I should just do a regular cake, since I know she'll like that. I think I'll have to wait on this cake, but I may have to make it for myself in the future, since it sounds really awesome! K8Memphis, I looked on the back of the can, and I see the recipe. I think I'll use this recipe because I have all the ingredients and it sounds yummy. The icing sounds delicious since it's very similar to my favorite scratch icing. I have a chocolate buttercream recipe I recently I recently tried I think I'll use for the filling. It has a light chocolate flavor that I think will go nicely since everything else will be pretty chocolatly. Thanks everyone!
