The Art Of Baking

Did some midnight baking and ended up with these wonderful two bite cookies. I found this quick and simple recipe from a Hershey Chipts home tested recipe book. I found the cookies something new for me to try for myself. These tasty treats have a really unique flavor and aroma.The flavor is mixture of rich peanut butter, sweet chocolate and the mild sweet fruit of banana. The cookies mostly have the rich aroma of  banana and chocolate ;however they reminded me a lot of banana bread in taste and texture, but in a cookie form.These little cookies are delicious and will be gobbled up in no time at all.I  really enjoyed baking these treats late at night and trying out new creatives photo shots.So try this recipe out for yourself especially if your a fan of banana bread or peanut butter banana sandwiches.

Here is another wonderful late night baking adventure using for the first time one of my new recipe books specifically for the muffin variety.These spicy muffins are the quick and simple way to release the tension of craving delicious sweets.Its wonderful crunchy sugar crumble topping is quite a treat along with its great cake like texture with sweet apples and spices.The appearance is very intriguing and the scent is intoxicating while it streams through the air to complete your craving.

 On Wednesday evening my cold began to let up and I felt better enough to try out some new baking.I really wanted to make some cookies so I looked into a book called company's coming-cookies and I came across these neat carrot cookies.These are a simple drop cookie with the major taste factor being the carrots and dried fruits;however they can have anything added extra such as variety of dried fruits,chocolate chips,or nuts. These cookies have a great light golden appearance along with in tensing color of orange.There texture is chewy and crunchy with a cake like interior.They have a delicious cinnamon spice and fruit like flavor.In my opinion they are a cookie that tastes like carrot cake,which is a favorite of mine so I was pleased and so was the people around me.This recipe makes about 3 dozen or less depending on what size you like them to be.I doubled the recipe to make more because I knew cookies go quickly around here. I was very pleased with how simple and delicious thes...

On  the evening of Tuesday, I began to really crave some pizza pretzels or Italian pretzels that are at bakery's.It made me remember during high school at lunch time when me and my friends would go to a small bakery nearest to my school sometimes. I would always either get a  pizza pretzel or an Nanaimo bar ,but mostly a pretzel.They were so fresh,warm, flavorful and most of  all had a wonderful intoxicating scent resonating off the pretzel. Since then I have had a love affair for pizza pretzels and trying my best to always make the ones I bake better then the last. I have not made pizza pretzels in a long time until now and these are the best so far I have made.  I think it definitely has to do with adding more spices/garlic and waiting for the yeast to dissolve completely.That is definitely a learning experience to not  rush yeast because the product will suffer and wont be as good in texture;however with these pretzels they did not suffer and came out wond...

We all should experience in life the delightful sweet warming scent of good old fashion peanut butter cookies baking in the oven so perfectly and if you have not yet experience that then I advise you to try out these simple no fail peanut butter cookies. It is a disappoint through for children and adults that are allergic to peanut related food; however theirs probably replacements for the peanut related food for something that tastes similar.That is whats so great about online recipes and the books out there that can help people out so they are not missing out on some great baking. For the people that are not allergic and love peanut butter then try out this  recipe for yourself. This recipe I found in "Company Comings For Cookies" and it was really simple to follow and makes a large bunch for the cookie lovers out there. They are mouth watering delicious with their sweet,buttery, and chocolaty flavor combination.It's texture of moist,warm,crunchy is an important and ...
