Yum. And well done, it didn't even crack! I agree that cheesecake at least tends to be filling.0

Good lord, man...do you have a recipe for the caramel sauce? I need to make that.
By memory,1 cup sugar in a sauce pan with 1 table spoon of water.
On medium heat until the sugar melts/becomes liquid and starts to boil.
Boil on medium heat until it turns amber / caramel colored.
Immediately add 4 tablespoons of butter and mix in well.
Remove from heat and add 1/2 cup of heavy cream (whipping cream)
Mix well and allow to cool to room temperature
I've made it twice,one time went perfectly. This last time after I put the cream in it clumped up and I put it back on low heat while I stirred the lumps in. They slowly melted in and it turned out ok. I think a lower heat for melting the sugar but taking a little bit more time works better that a higher heat for shorter time.
It would be amazing on ice cream too

I've done it three times. The only time it came out badly I didn't let it cook long enough. Make sure you get that really deep amber color before you take it off. It should be darker than you want the finished sauce to be, because the cream will dilute it.
And don't let it pop on you. I got a second degree burn the first time I did it.0 -

Salted Caramel and pecan chocolate cheese cake.... all from scratch (cake, caramel, crushed pecans) last night for my father's birthday today. I'm a little scared that I calced it out to be around 8400 calories though lol
Those look amazing! We've been light on pics and baking around here for a while. Thanks to our new member for reminding us what this group is all about!

Does anyone have just an awesome knockout cupcake recipe to share? I've been wanting to do another test kitchen weekend and on the agenda so far are lemon angel food and cookie dough stuffed chocolate. I'd love to have one other idea to try out.0

The radio just told me that in February, there are going to be a limited edition of Oreos in Red Velvet flavour. The icing is going to be cream cheese flavoured! I literally made a sort of "hhhhnnngh" noise when I heard the news. I had to tell someone and I figured you all would appreciate it.ILiftHeavyAcrylics wrote: »Does anyone have just an awesome knockout cupcake recipe to share?

Man, I wish I had an awesome cupcake recipe. All the ones I've made so far have been kinda blah.
I have some really good ones. I just want something new.
I've got really good recipes for chocolate, vanilla (technically it's southern butter cake), carrot, hummingbird, gingerbread, caramel, and red velvet. If you want any of those I'm happy to share.0 -

You probably aren't going to love this suggestion because I know this flavor isn't your favorite but if its for your budding business I think you should try to capitalize on the pumpkin craze so you're ready for next fall....
Second suggestion, coconut cupcakes. Can make variations like pina colada with rum and lime, coconut meringue, coconut cream, or a Mounds knockoff with chocolate ganache icing...
What I don't have are good recipes for either...

Hummingbird cake is a southern specialty. It's a cinnamon batter with pineapple, toasted pecans, and banana. Usually you do a cream cheese icing.
I was kinda hoping someone had something tried and true. I've got a ton of ideas on my pinterest board but none of them sound good to me right now so I can't pick one. I do plan to do pumpkin for next fall, but I'll probably start working on that recipe in the summer sometime.0 -
