I love making pies. I use my grandma's recipe for the crust and it's so yummy, flaky, and easy!
-
I love making cakes and testing out new decoration ideas!
-
I love making decorated sugar cookies. Probably because I have an unhealthy attachment to my piping bag and tips, haha.
If I'm going to a potluck or something, I love trying out new bars and squares recipes. My current fave are peanut butter and jelly bars. -
@redsmarties: DH loves peanut butter and jelly (I call them peanut butter jelly time) cookies. I saw them on the food network and thought they looked weird but wanted to give them a try, so glad I did!
-
I love baking banana bread- it make the house smell so good and uses up my brown bananas
-
@artbee: Yeah, these squares have a base like a peanut butter cookie, then a layer of jelly, then a peanut/peanut butter crumble on top. SO good.
-
@redsmarties: Is it the crumble nutty? I just cut out a recipe for peanut butter and jelly bars out of a magazing with a nutty top, but I don't like nuts unless they're in the form of creamy peanut butter, so I was planning to omit them. Do you mind sharing your recipe?
@Chillybear: Love banana bread! I usually buy extra bananas hoping that there will be some left over by the time they start going bad so I can use them for banana bread. And it's so easy to make!
-
@artbee: Yeah, its got chopped peanuts in it. I think you could probably omit them though, without any major consequences. Here's the recipe!
Ingredients
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 large eggs
2 1/2 cups smooth peanut butter
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups strawberry jam, or other flavor
2/3 cup salted peanuts, roughly choppedDirections
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9-by-13-inch pan and line with foil or parchment. Beat butter and sugar in the bowl of a mixer. Beat on medium-high speed until fluffy, about 2 minutes. On medium speed, add eggs and peanut butter; beat until combined, about 2 minutes.
Whisk together salt, baking powder, and flour. Add to bowl of mixer on low speed; combine. Add vanilla. Transfer two-thirds of mixture to prepared pan; spread evenly with offset spatula. Using offset spatula, spread jam on top of peanut-butter mixture. Dollop remaining third of peanut-butter mixture on top of jam. Sprinkle with peanuts.
Bake until golden, about 45 minutes.Enjoy!

Mmm, what DON'T I love baking?!?! All types of cookies, brownies, cinnamon rolls, blueberry muffins etc. You name it, I am probably happy to bake it.
@Chillybear: So funny, DH has just run out to the store to get some butter so he can make banana cake today! That's his baking specialty and I certainly don't mind eating it!

I love making brownies & bars!! mmmm

http://tastykitchen.com/recipes/desserts/molten-chocolate-cake/
YUMMMMM and so easy.
-
@artbee: are you up to sharing your recipe? hope it's not a family secret! i need a good pie crust recipe!
I love to bake anything & everything. It's my favorite! I have a recipe for orange-cranberry scones that's really yummy and a chocolate chip cookie recipe that i'm obsessed with. mmmmmm (:
-
bread - I LOVE bread. And bread-like items, muffins, cinnamon rolls etc. I try to make "healthier" versions of these recipes; use whole wheat flour, or coconut or almond flour, no sugar - instead use honey, no oil- use butter... etc.
-
@Sweet T: of course! Its for the top and bottom crust, so if you just need the bottom half it. 2 cups flour, 1/2 cup oil, 1/4 cup milk. Mix with your hands, and don't over mix. It's very scamp so you have to roll it super thin.
-
I don't love baking, but I do love the satisfaction I get from making the perfect pound cake.
-
Yummm... baking.
Cinnamon Rolls, Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies, Banana Bread.... yummmm
-
Breads, Brownies, and Lemon Bars (just because they're the only things I've gotten down pat!!)
-
cookies, so soothing somehow.
-

I love making tons of baked goods. I have a killer recipes for chocolate chip cookies which I always get tons of compliments on, these insane chocolate PB crispy brownies which are to die for, and I also make a very tasty from scatch angelfood cake!

Bread, especially bread that I need to knead (heh). I do it by hand, and I find it very soothing.
-
chocolate chip oatmeal cookies, homemade bread, and zucchini bread.
I am not much of a baker... I prefer to cook. -
Pie and banana bread! Also cookies, but they seem to make a bigger mess....
-
Cookies and cupcakes. Mmmm.

Anything without a pastry crust. I cheat and buy those premade.
My cakes and breads always turn out the best.
-
Cheesecake! I love trying out new cheesecake recipes. Cheesecake is my husband's favorite dessert, so it makes me so excited when I make a cheesecake for him! My favorite: Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Cheesecake. Soooooo delicious.
