I spent all day in the kitchen
Jan. 18th, 2010 10:27 pmAnd if that sounds all warm and cozy and lovely, well . . . I'm not the kitchen goddess type. At all. But I am the "I said I'll do something, so I'll do it" type. (Yes, I'm a stubborn Celt.)
So:
Two dozen very large mini M&M cookies (yes, I cheated and used one of my cookie-mix-in-jar leftover jars).
Three mini lemon-poppyseed loaves and six lemon-poppyseed muffins
Two apple-walnut mini loaves and one dozen apple-walnut muffins
Two dozen chocolate muffins
This took some time because loaves and muffins made out of the same mix require two different temperatures and timings. But I pulled it off.
Sat down just long enough to go to the co-op because (duh!) I didn't have quite enough flour.
Then sat down to print out signs of various sorts for the room at Town Hall tomorrow where we'll be trying to get people to take these things home and give donations.
Take home lesson for me: Be less ambitious in your baking!
