I love baking. I also love eating home made goods, which is why I'm probably here in the first place ;)
Well, now I'm trying not to indulge but still bake for family and friends. So, any like-minded people out there? Love getting ideas from food photos.
Here are today's bakes:

    I hear you! I love to bake, mostly cookies, so my baking is pretty limited now, except at Christmas time. I retired a year and a half ago, so no where to bring my treats anymore. We had new windows put in a few weeks ago. I made cookies for the installer the first day, but he barely took a break, and they lasted the whole week the job took him. New siding in September, with a bigger crew to make treats for, so I’m looking forward to that. DH doesn’t eat sweets at all, so I would be the only one indulging and I don’t need, or want, the calories 🙁Your baking looks delicious!

    I only do the easy stuff. Lasagna cupcakes. Cherry and strawberry clafoutis. Dutch bitterkoekjes (=almond macaroons).

    A cube shaped arancini "baked" in the air fryer made from leftover risotto. Ever since I watched David Chang make cube shaped croquettes on "Mind of a Chef" I have copied the idea. Much easier to cut a trayful of batter into cubes instead of rolling into balls. Going to apply the same principle next time I make scones or biscuits instead using a round cutter that requires re-rolling.

    I work at a university doing fundraising. I employ about 30 students, so I get to have fun and bake the treats. This is my Halloween BRAAAAIN cake! It's red velvet baked in a Pampered Cheg Batter bowl to get the correct shape, iced with pink frosting, then the brain coils are marsh-mellow fondant and glazed with a watered down jam.
