Week 24: Carmel - Monkey Bread

Monkey Bread. Balls of dough stuck together with sugar.

I want to find a way to write around the picture. I will figure it one day, maybe, if I care enough. This will be a picture blog.

I made my own bread (of course can't buy stuff on a baking challenge)

It rose!! (is that the rigth rose?)

I had to put it in the refrigerated because I wasn't ready to use it just yet. The reason the photo looks like it does is because there is flour on the lense.

Balls of dough in bunt pan.

"Look at my hand there is sugar and cinnamon on it."

" It is yummy"

It rose!

There is a plum dessert in there also.

It fell apart.

It was good.

Really good.

I will make it for you sometime.

Week 25: Swedish Midsummer - Neapolitan

This week is Swedish Midsummer. After doing research the key thing to a Swedish Midsummer party (or any dessert this time of year) is strawberries. I did not want to do a cake, with fresh strawberries. Cakes are just not my thing. I won't be having one at my birthday party, because I would rather make other desserts. Back to this week. I was going to make pound cake, then slice it and layer it with whipped cream and strawberries. Peter asked for blueberry muffins in the morning. So I made blueberry muffins. Well now I had a layer for my Neapolitan. We did not need to have a pound cake in the house. I had eaten most of the cookies from last week. Now I just need another layer, that did not require me to go to the store. I decided on making a cream cheese frosting. Here is my Blueberry Muffins, Strawberries, Cream Cheese Frosting Neapolitan: The test run with no filling. Half way built. Can...

Week 23: The Philippines

Well, I went for the bread. As much as the Champorao (Filipino Chocolate Rice Pudding) sounded interesting and easier. My mom was coming over and I asked her to bring bread crumbs if she had them I would make the bread if she didn't or was already on her way I would not. As usual, the recipe seems simple, but it never is with bread. I watched a few youtube videos of people making Pandesal. I was trying to figure out what the texture should be. I am glad a did. The dough was too wet so I added more flour. It worked out well. The dough wasn't too sticky and the finished product is not too dense. It turned out well. I weighed out the flour wich worked well with Kenny. He could put in as much flour as he wanted. Then he went potty and I finished it for the most part. My mom and Linda came over and entertained the kids while I finished up. Went to lunch while the bread rose. Now for the pictures! ...

Starting Out

How can someone with two kids bake once a week? It can take a few days to get one thing made. The dishes are never cleaned right afterward. I joined Reddit 52weeksofbaking. Now I have a goal, a mission, and something outside of my kids to do. Week 1: Redo - Blueberry Cheesecake Ok, so I kind of took the easy way out for this one. I had already made a redo BlueBerry Cheesecake. I already had some good photos. First post easy! First Post was done! (15 upvotes, a good number for this group) Week 2: Quick Bread Well, now things got hard. I had to ACTUALLY bake something. I had to find time. After debating about banana bread, zucchini bread, or Soda bread, I finally decided to do a blueberry coffee cake. I wish I remembered how many days it took me to start making it. Then how many days the dry ingredients were mixed and hanging out on the counter. But it finally got done. And it didn't...
