Re: Chirstmas Baking List



that sounds lovely Jaded

what makes the cake pudding-y? I like it when black cake turns out like that. But so far it is only after soaking it for a while does it get that consistency

Re: Chirstmas Baking List

Re: Chirstmas Baking List

not sure whether the recipe calls fe more <span style="text-decoration: line-through">water</span> liquid like twiney seh..i'll check the recipe lata and post it..but the process calls for it to be covered in aluminum and baked at a lower temperature fe about 3 hours...or summen like a dat

your baking list is <span style="text-decoration: line-through">scary</span> impressive how long is all of that gonna take

Nylah:

Is there also a <span style="font-style: italic">Madeline cupcake</span> because I bought something last night that was a cupcake rolled in jam sauce and then in the grated coconut...and the baker called it a Madeline...?

[Nylah]

Re: Chirstmas Baking List

You know, I have never heard of that to be honest

I'd guess that it is something different because I have never heard of them being in cupcake form or containing jam (but I am gonna check google to be sure )

The french madeleines are very specific in which ingredients are to be used to make the madeleines....it is quite funny to read some blogs where they are arguing whether a &quot;pure&quot; madeleine includes baking powder or not The french can be hilarious when it comes to their food
