Baking madly

[wiseheart]

Well, sort of. I've baked the first three batches of cookies - you can check the progress in the pinned entry, I'll update steadily. These were relatively easy ones - in theory. Except that I got really creative. I've coloured the aniseed biscuits green because that looks great with the white pine nuts and made them into little sandwiches via

Yay for baking creativity.

With all those intolerances people have nowadays you have to be creative.

One of the marks of a good cook/baker is how well they do on things they don't like. I'm very happy about the time I made L. strawberry cupcakes for their birthday because they loved them and I don't even like strawberries!

Yes, the goal is to make things the recipients would like when one is planning to give one's bakes away. *g*

Those biscuits sound pretty. I'm thinking they're likely to get simpler as the season progresses. :D

[wiseheart]

Nah, actually the progress is determined by the way I can match the ingredients.

Glad you're having fun. :)

Oh yes, I am!

Now I am curious about the refined Kokosmakronen! I love Kokosmakronen, the rest of the family thinks them too bland.

I've tried to take away some of the sweetness by adding lemon zest but they are still sweet enough. :)
