Strawberry Shortcakes. Thursday, May 13, 2010 When I was little I had a Strawberry Shortcake doll.

Strawberry Shortcakes

It was one of my favorite dolls. Recently, I turned on the tv during the weekend morning and there was a Strawberry Shortcake show on. Boy, have they changed how she looks now. Anyway, I was pretty obsessed with my Strawberry Shortcake doll. It occurred to me very recently, that I’ve never actually eaten strawberry shortcake. I chose to use a recipe from Joelen’s Culinary Adventures because she used a sweet cream biscuit recipe I had been wanting to try. Strawberry Shortcakes (Recipe adapted from Joelen’s culinary adventures) Sweet Cream Biscuits (from Dorie Greenspan’s Baking: From My Home to Yours, page 23) Makes about 12 biscuits Ingredients 2 cups all-purpose flour 1 Tbsp. baking powder 2 tsp. sugar 1/2 tsp. salt 1 to 1 and 1/4 cups heavy cream Directions 1.

Coconut Milk Chocolate Cake

Today my mum left after helping me out and going on holiday - we've been on the move for weeks. It feels so good that I can finally settle down into my new home. My boxes have been shifted, my furniture has been assembled. Sadly my kitchen is still in utter chaos. Unfortunately I don't have internet yet in my flat so I'm not properly online. I found this recipe months ago and have been meaning to make it since. Instead of the buttercream icing I made a coconut milk ganache - I thought of the idea a few months ago and thought I was being very original until I googled it. The overall result is a fudgy chocolate cake that is at once very rich but not too heavy. Coconut Milk Chocolate Cake (Cake recipe adapted from this recipe on the little red house. blog) For the ganache: 125ml coconut milk 125g dark chocolate (70%) Line an 8" square pan with greaseproof paper. Sift the flour, bicarbonate, baking power and salt into a bowl. Spiced Applesauce Cake with Cinnamon Cream Cheese Frosting: 2000s Recipes + Menus.
