| Look for a recipes with a high rating of course! |
 |
| The apples I made into pie filling in earlier posts. Too much liquid, not enough fruit so I added frozen black berries |
 |
| Ready for the oven |
 |
| Done: bubbly and crispy |
 |
| I precook my filling, no runny separated juices. I like minute tapioca as a filling |
 |
| Look for a recipe that uses equal amounts of sugar, oats and flour |
  |
| I levelled the rounded top off of the base and the top, icing in-between the layers |
 |
| Chocolate ganache, cooled to room temperature, then whipped. 2 parts chocolate and 1 part whipping cream,. |
 |
| Large star nib, chocolate ganache. Just a few sprinkles |
 |
| I should have put it on a smaller cake plate! |
  |
| Left over cake, crammed into a spring form pan, then decorated with #123 rose nib! |
 |
| Everyone has their own recipe; I use lemon juice, a shake of sugar and splash of olive oil, I crush dried oregano and basil on top and stir. |
 |
| I dress my salad 2 hours before serving, add cheese before eating |
 |
| I reduced the water and still too much, next time I will make 1/2 the cornmeal crust |
 |
| cook the meat until it is on the dry side |
 |
| 1/2 the amounts for the crust |
 |
| you boil the cornmeal mixture; it thickens up. Push 1/2 crust into the greased pan |
 |
| the meat goes over the bottom crust |
 |
| when spreading anything dot the mixture on then connect the dots |
 |
| top layer of crust |
 |
| Love my counter top convection oven (toaster oven). 45 mins to bake! |
 |
| crispy top! |
 |
| huge bag of apples but barely enough to make apple pie filling (Ms Wakely recipe) |
 |
| Excellent recipe! Love his shows, I grate ice cold butter instead of cutting in. |
 |
| I cut the dough into rectangles instead of using the biscuit cutter…I brushed the tops with buttermilk. |
 |
| I use the recipe from Cooking for 2. |
 |
| I add blueberries, or cheddar or orange zest or chives and garlic. The sugar on top is Raw or turbinado |
 |
| Crunchy top. Baking small recipes in my counter top convection oven. |
 |
| I transport the decorated cakes in the baking tin |
 |
| the hippopotamus tops? My oven did not reach 350 before I put the cake in! |
 |
| icing a small cake, baked in a tiny spring form pan |
 |
| Using a cupcake rose nail (wilton) to ice a cupcake |
 |
| Clean the crumbs off your spatula to keep a smooth icing base |
 |
| The bottom cake is still on a spring form base |
 |
| I did the top swirl with a star dot nib and did the bottom with star dots. |
 |
| Happy Birthday! |
 |
| regular and mini cupcakes, plus Wilton rose nails |
 |
| Use a circle nib or just the coupling to make a centre of icing |
 |
| I purchased 123 nib by wilton from Dicken's Sweets, Chilliwack. $3 |
 |
| the first circle of icing, I use a curved petal nib, not the straight rose one |
 |
| I switched to a smaller cupcake, add to the centre by putting 3 petals on |
 |
| we will keep adding petals by alternating placement so no 'seams' appear |
 |
| keep the nib clean, I just use my finger |
 |
| I am turning my hand in one direction, the bag in the other |
 |
| I used the rose nail for the larger cupcake |
 |
| never decorate with buttercream icing when you don't have air conditioning. This melted immediately! |
