Part of the Adventures in Baking (AiB) series. Original recipe: http://www.perrysplate.com/2008/02/cinn-bun-cheesecake.html I made this two days ago but it just got eaten yesterday. I had a 10″ pan, so I only did two layers instead of three. I used gingersnaps for for the cookie. I hate cheesecake, so I can only go by...

Part of the Adventures in Baking (AiB) series. Original recipe: http://cooklikeyourgrandmother.com/2009/07/how-to-make-perfect-brownies/ Made a pan for before the girls came home, but they were half eaten by the hunters and guides before they could even cool! At least I got one piece set aside for each of the kids. I...

Part of the Adventures in Baking (AiB) series. Original recipe: http://www.thehazelbloom.com/2010/11/caramel-apple-upside-down-cake-with-cinnamon-whipped-cream/ Well I broke the cardinal rule and baked something new when company was coming. My heat was a little high when I browned the butter, so part got burned. That...

Part of the Adventures in Baking (AiB) series. Original recipe: http://www.thehazelbloom.com/2011/02/chocolate-banana-marble-muffins/ Well these are pretty good, but not terrific (and that may very well be my fault). I doubled the recipe, and perhaps I should stop doing that. Doubled, the batter was quite thick. There...

Part of the Adventures in Baking (AiB) series. Original recipe: http://www.sugarduchess.com/2011/04/chocolate-mousse-cake/ Oh—my—goodness. This was divine! It is super, super rich. A tiny slice is all you need. Because I know nobody would believe that I made this, I’m attaching pictures. I only had a 10-inch pan, so...

Part of the Adventures in Baking (AiB) series. Original recipe: http://picky-palate.com/2010/02/11/cinnamon-roll-sugar-cookies-yes/ These cookies turned out awesome! Even hours later, chilled, they are soft and delicious. The kids love them. They really do taste like little cinnamon buns! There wasn’t nearly enough...

Part of the Adventures in Baking (AiB) series. Original recipe: http://www.canyoustayfordinner.com/2010/08/02/cinnamon-sugar-crusted-coffee-cake-muffins/ The original blogger appears to have used some sort of mini muffin pan. I only had cupcake pans. As a result, I didn’t try to encrust the whole thing in cinnamon and...

Part of the Adventures in Baking (AiB) series. Original recipe: http://www.ledelicieux.com/2011/01/17/korova-cookies/ My cookies just came out of the oven and they are delicious! This is a great (and incidentally, eggless) double-chocolate cookie recipe. I only have salted butter, so I reduced the salt somewhat. I also...

Part of the Adventures in Baking (AiB) series. Original recipe: http://www.blueeyedbakers.com/home/2010/9/7/millionaires-shortbread.html This recipe did not turn out so good. The shortbread is not particularly good. The butter cookies I made earlier are far superior. The caramel recipe resulted in essentially toffee....

Part of the Adventures in Baking (AiB) series. Original recipe: http://gingerbreadbagels.com/2011/01/28/no-bake-nutella-cookies-2/ Delicious! I didn’t have a cookie scoop, so I had to use an ice cream scoop instead. Mine didn’t flatten like the pictures show, and they’re a little brittle. I think smaller cookies would...
