Amaretto tiramisu
I was quite excited when I read what the Daring Bakers challenge for this month was gonna be… Tiramisu… And it would be hosted by two of my favorite blogs! Tiramisu is an old time favorite in this household and in fact something I make almost every year for New Years when we [...]
Nanaimo bars
Ok, don’t you all dare to laugh at me… Yes I forgot to make the challenge but I think I came back pretty quickly didn’t I? I was lucky that an appointment for today was cancelled so I all of a sudden had time to make these lovely bars.
I first started [...]
Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow..
Can you believe it is only two days till christmas?? I’ve been running around all day doing last minute errands and not trying to be overrun by the crazy shopping crowd… I am so happy I will not have to go shopping tomorrow as that must [...]
Macarons
I want feet, I want feet, I want feet.. But…. as you can see…. no feet (again) When I saw that the Daring Bakers challenge for october was making french macarons I figured I had a potentially good chance of succeeding. It would of-course be my fourth attempt at making macarons [...]

The July Daring Bakers’ challenge was hosted by Nicole at Sweet Tooth. She chose Chocolate Covered Marshmallow Cookies and Milan Cookies from pastry [...]
Bakewell tart with lemon curd..
The June Daring Bakers’ challenge was hosted by Jasmine of Confessions of a Cardamom Addict and Annemarie of Ambrosia and Nectar. They chose a Traditional (UK) Bakewell Tart… er… pudding that was inspired by a rich baking history dating back to the 1800’s in England.
Let me first start by saying [...]
Strawberry mango strudel with whipped cream
I think one the best thing about being part of the Daring Bakers is that you are “forced” to make things, you wouldn’t otherwise attempt. My first challenge last month was the cheesecake, which I had never done before and the second challenge for me was Apple strudel. Ofcourse [...]
Cheesecake
The April 2009 challenge is hosted by Jenny from Jenny Bakes. She has chosen Abbey’s Infamous Cheesecake as the challenge.
A while ago I was first pointed to the Daring Bakers by seeing some of the amazing results of their march and february challenges and I didn’t hesitate one minute and signed up. One of [...]
