Old Fashioned White Bread

 I'm making a pot roast for dinner, so I asked my mom to bake us a bread. Here is what she made:

Mini Ciambellone

Ben and Brandi sent me some new silicon donut/mini bundt cakes. So I needed to find a new recipe to use them. I decided to try Mini Ciambellone with help from my mom.

   

Cranberry Milk Roll Buns

I saw a recipe for a pretty wool roll bread that I had to make. I doubled the dough recipe, and also made some buns with my mom.

Wool Roll Bread

I saw a recipe for a pretty bread that I decided to make. My mom helped, and we shared it with my sister.

Mini Custardy Apple Tarts

 I saw a reference recently to 'custardly apple squares' and wanted to make a small pie version. I adapted some recipes to make my version with help from my mom.

Apple and Kale Torte

My mom and I were looking for a vegetarian dish for dinner, so we decided to try out this recipe.

 

 

Chocolate Souffle Cupcakes

I missed Emily yesterday, so I wanted to make something chocolate for her. I also have been wanting to make a cupcake sized version of The Smitten's Kitchen's Cookbook's Tiny But Intense Chocolate Cake. I found that the author had posted a recipe for Chocolate Souffle Cupcakes that my mom and I made our version of instead.

Chocolate Tangerine Swirl Rolls

I've been thinking about a tangerine chocolate roll. I mashed together a couple of recipes and ideas to make these with my mom.

 

Cheese Sausage Twist

 I saw a picture of a cheddar twist bread stick that looked interesting, so my mom and I made this version.

Devil's Thumbprint Cookies

 I wanted to make some cookies for Joanne - she said she likes dark chocolate cookies, so I decided to try out a new recipe. My mom helped!

Schoggi Brotli (Chocolate Rolls)

 I saw a recipe for Schoggi Brotli when I was looking up Swiss recipes last week. I decided to make them today with my mom - they are round and chocolate and sourdough!
   

Blechkuchen

I was looking to re-create a Swiss berry tart I had in Kanderstag a couple of years ago. Doug also had bought canned peaches to get a can for a Scout project. So my mom and I made a Swiss Peach Tart called a Blechkuchen - for sheet pan cake. We used blueberries and the peaches.

Soft Chocolate Chip Cookies

Brandi prefers "soft" chocolate chip cookies, so my mom and I made up this recipe  from a new cook book.

Vanilla Pecan Mini Coffeecakes

My sister Libby gave me a new cookbook, so I had to make something from it. My mom and I tweaked one recipe a bit, and made up a cupcake-sized versions of the Vanilla Pecan Coffeecake from Baking With Less Sugar.

Honey Garlic Glazed Salmon

I wanted to try a new salmon recipe to make with my mom. (She likes seafood.) I found a honey glazed salmon recipe which we made up.

 

Chocolate Chip Sourdough Scone Drops

I decided I wanted to make something with chocolate chip and sourdough. Here is the recipe I put together with some help from my mom.

Cream Cheese Danish (Lower Carb)

My mom is visiting for a couple of months. She was interested in having a 'nicey'. I found a new recipe for a lower carb Danish which we are trying today.

 

Buttery Sourdough Biscuits

I was making some cabbage and lentil soup, so decided make up some sourdough biscuits with my mom to go with them.

Chocolate Dinosaur Cakelets

I got a new pan for Christmas, and needed to try it out. My mom helped me make some mini chocolate dinosaurs.

 

Blueberry Pie

Sue wanted to make pie, so we all went to the farmer's market and got berries. Sue, my mom, and I mixed my favorite pie crust with Sue's favorite blueberry pie recipe. This is a deep dish pie, btw,
