Saturdays are for Baking..Part 2

When I started baking, I always used box. However, I have transitioned into making all my cakes, cookies, cupcakes, pies (even pie crusts), breads, etc from scratch. BUT, when I heard that a local wholesale company was selling cake mixes at 70% off (Near date expiration, like 60 days from now) I bought several cases. I knew that I would bake all of those in about two weeks time, so I went and bought them. I was pretty glad I did, because not only did I bring a ton of sweets to the many parties this weekend, I also gave every neighbor on the block a tray of goodies... and did not brake the bank!!!

My daughter, Kiki

My niece, Akari

The girls made the cookies, and I made the rest...
We had a great time...

Saturdays are for Baking!

RE-bake, part II...

(too many parties this weekend, seems like my oven was constantly on when I was home....)

Chocolate Jelly Roll and Beignets

Last night, I made chocolate jelly roll....oh so delicious!

I still do not have my camera, but I will get one this week, I promise. Anyway, here is a photo I took off of the internet of the chocolate jelly roll. Unfortunately, my jelly roll looked more like photo # 2 below.

My daughter said it was too creamy, but my sister said it was delicious!!! ofcourse I thought it was delicious...

This morning, I made beignets, again, what I made looked more like photo #2, but they were sprinkled with powdered sugar.......yumm-o!
