Bake Off 2

Bread week on the bake off is always one that I'm not great at doing but this time round they had a quick bread round, sounds more up my street! So we gave soda bread a go! We had some Mexican style chili and lime cheese left so we jazzed up the basic soda bread recipe (which was designed to make two small loaves or more like rolls) with the cheese and jalapenos. Actually it turned out yummy!

I'll have to wait to do the next couple of weeks of the bake off as we're a little busy, but I will catch up at some point!

The Bake Off is Back!!!

The Bake Off is back - yay! So far I have made a black forest gateau cake (minus the topping in the picture as I made it the day before a BBQ and refrigerated the chocolate top and it hardened so had to wait for it to melt again!). I have also made some biscotti, espresso and chocolate chip flavour!

I doubt I'll be able to keep up with every week but so far cake week - check and biscuit week - check, hmmm not sure about bread, we'll have to see what they do. (Or I could cheat and use the bread maker!!)
