I Love to Bake!


Baking makes me happy. I love to mix good things with good things and get great things! My favorite recipe to make is the basic Nestle Tollhouse Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe. It never fails. I recently discovered that I make a mean Snickerdoodle as well. I love to try new baking recipes when I have a few free hours or a whole free day. The past few weeks I've made dozens and dozens of heart shaped cake pops (recipe and idea from Bakerella), 8 million cinnamon sugar cookies with cream cheese frosting (recipe from my awesome mom!), and a Pig Cake (recipe from Pioneer Woman). They were all way good!

The main thing I love about baking is that it's a way to just focus on the task at hand, not think about anything else and just make something great to eat. I also love that at the end you get something sweet and fantastic to try.

It's kind of hard baking for only 2 people, so my coworkers have been my main consumers, and they seem to like it, so I'll keep doing it.

I think I'll start finding something fun to make for St. Patrick's Day next month. Maybe Shamrock cakepops? Guess we'll have to see.
