Usually I only do desserts for a get together, I have no resistance and don't keep them around much. Yesterday my baking buddy came over in the morning and we made a patriotic cake with berries on top. We've been on the search for the perfect, moist yellow cake recipe, and found one that was great for our cake- Hot Milk Cake from King Arthur Flour website. I've got way too much of that left in the fridge now!
At last nights gathering I found out there was going to also be berry triffle (and heard one of the hosts is a chocolate lover), so I decided on a chocolate alternative. I said the wrong name above, they were actually called Deep, Dark, Fudgy Brownies, also from the King Arthur flour recipe site.
I just got my oven replaced a couple of weeks ago after being without one for a while, so I'm enjoying baking again. Since we're having a strangely wet mild summer, I don't mind having the oven on.
