    That french toast looks awesome. I think I'm going to have to make challah tonight so I can have stuffed french toast this weekend.

    I want to see pictures of that...

    I've been wanting to make some brioche/craquelin, do you know where to find caster sugar?

    Fresh Market has it but I'm too cheap to buy it there. I put granulated sugar in the food processor for a bit.

    Thanks, I guess I was looking for something easier as I don't have a food processor, lol.

    Day 12: Talenti Southern Butter Pecan - OMG it is so delicious. And I was very excited when I looked on their website and saw it was 30 calories per serving less than I thought (that tiny writing is really hard to read).
    -
    Ok I had to edit and add that if there were time machines I would totally go back in time and tell the little kid me that she is being an idiot by not trying things like butter pecan ice cream. Not sure if they are all this good (have only had any sort of butter pecan one other time, and that is only a couple months ago) but man this has to be in my top 10 for sure.

    It actually tasted a little too sweet after the gelato. Maybe next time I'll do the 72% with it.

    Seriously - this is good stuff! If Acrylics hadn't raved about this, I never would have tracked it down and likely wouldn't have picked it up off a shelf since I am not normally as entranced by chocolate as some other flavors, and it looks amazingly chocolatey (and is). I really, really like this, and the calorie count is incredible compared to some of its peers. I hope I can find another source now that the one store I knew of has closed and my last pint is now opened.
