Happy Valentine Day Chocolate Heart Cake

 Valentines Chocolate Cake! Wow! sorry about the lateness of this post its certainly been a while past valentines day, oh well I got it done now. I was going to post this closer to valentines day but I kept forgetting and getting busy.Anyways I had a lot of fun making this lovely cake that I found in "My Big Book Of Baking". The texture of the cake is light, airy,fluffy and chewy. The flavor is chocolaty, rich and a hint of raspberry. The appearance is heart shaped with chocolate glaze decorated with raspberries.

Get On The Path Of The Fudgy Rocky Road

I just love it when you find those so called hidden recipes on the back of those baking products :).With these delicious little numbers, it wasn't a rocky road process to make them. Anyways I found this recipe on the back of none other then a mini marshmallow bag with actually two other recipes along with it.When I saw the words fudge and brownie I was definitely a hundred percent sure I was going to make these little babies right away.

Pastel-Coated Cocoa BonBons For A Valentine Gift

  Made these little delightful candies for valentine days and gave some to my boyfriend as a gift. I also gave him a few heart shaped black and white cookies. I really think I spoil him to much with all this baking; however it isn't like no one else gets to try out all these tasty treats. Without those people I would have a pile of baking going to waste. I wouldn't possibly be able to eat it all by myself unless I want to gain a lot of poundage. Anyways, this is the candy recipe that I found in my Hershey's Chocolate Lover's Cookbook. I thought they looked really fancy and had a variety of ideas for decorating.

Valentine Black And White Heart Cookies

I made these heart shaped cookies last night and were ready to eat for the next day.These are of course cookies inspired for valentine days. They were really fun to make and take photographs. There texture is slightly crunchy, soft, and flaky.There flavor is chocolaty and has a shortbread like taste.These are really easy to make; however they are a little time consuming due to the fact you have to chill the dough and for the chocolate to harden . Overall, they came out as really beautiful simple cookies that will be gone in no time.When I made these cookies I got really good compliments on how good they are and there going quickly.Hopefully there will be lots for Valentines to celebrate the day.

This Is One Large Pizza

Yesterday I was really craving some pizza so I thought I make some for dinner that day. So I decided to make a large rectangle size and just doubled the recipe for dough that was for a large round pizza. I topped it with any ingredients that were available. In my toppings I used olives, yellow peppers,green peppers, garlic sandwich meat,cheddar cheese, and mozzarella cheese. I have gotten good compliments on this pizza and all 24 pieces I cut up were gone in no time at all;however that probably happens all the time with pizza. I would describe the dough, crunchy, soft, risen,absorbs flavor well and of course tastes like whatever toppings you use. I really enjoy making this recipe every time I use it because its very simple and quick. This recipe comes from my Italian Foods Grade 11 Recipes called Fermipan pizza, I'll post it below.

Valentine Day Plans!

I'm so excited that valentines day is coming up and that means theirs a great big excuse to bake something that involves hearts or anything to do with love. Its going to be a lot of fun for me and a lot of fun for all of you to check out the future blogs on it.I haven't made a definite decisions what I'm going to make but i have some ideas. Does anyone remember getting little valentine cards in elementary school and you had a big envelope attached to the front of your desk.Well I just came upon a box with all school stuff from when I was little and I saw that I kept most of the valentines cards from that long ago.I was going over who they were from so that definitely brought back memories and remember a lot of the people. Anyways I hope everyone has a great valentines day that's coming up soon

Waikiki Cookies

  This evening I was aimlessly looking through my recipe books looking for something new to bake; however I was having some trouble because some recipes are way to time consuming or they take ingredients that I just don't have.Then I remembered I have a cookie recipe tin of old fashion cookies from Debbie Mumm that I got for Christmas last year.Which included categories like Holiday, cookie dough, chippy, fruit and old fashion.Its really cute looking tin for all the recipes and I can add my own recipe to it as well. Anyways I found a cookie called Waikiki cookies, which are white chocolate and macadamia cookies ;however I do like there title way better.When I looked at this recipe it was very simple to follow and none of the ingredients are bizarre or hard to find in a grocery store.There quite the good looking cookie and I never thought I give a cookie that title before, but I think it deserves it especially the added bonus of how delicious it is.To describe this cookie I wou

Checkerboard Cookies,Are You Up For A Game.

This is a brand new recipe that I just tried out from one of my baking books that's called "The Big Book Of Baking" that I bought from chapters.The title still amuses me because of how direct it is. My eyes were definitely drawn to it when I saw it and especially with all the great photographs. I have actually wanted to make these cookies when I first saw them in the book because they were so neat looking and professional. To describe the checkerboard cookie I would say that its ap pearance is very colorful and its texture is soft and a little crunchy.Its taste is mildly sweet with chocolate and the mild taste of orange and ginger.With my recipe I actually did not use any ginger or orange rind because I did not have any at the time, but I presume if I did I would of tasted both of them in the cookies.Instead I used lemon extract for the white dough for just a hint of lemony flavor and they tasted really good. The cookies were tiny to me which made them look real
