weeks baking & not over yet Yesterday, I made some sultana scones(I always double the amount of flour& baking powder) in my scone recipes,as I like scones to be a decent size.I use half milk and half water to fruit scones and milk only for savoury scones.I made rice bubble squares,I used 6 cups of flour(instead of the normal 5 cups and I added another 25g butter,also another tblspoon of honey.I made pikelets and added golden syrup and halved the sugar.I am about to make(when I drag myself away from the computer and from this awesome site) choco muffins(cheating though)I have brought a pkt receipe mixture.I will add passionfruit and coffee syrup to the pkt mixture.

I have an experiment baking right now. I used the orange cake recipe with the whole orange as a base, then added a little more milk and flour and sultanas to add up to a sultana cake with more flavour.

Fridge biscuits??? Hi everyone, I thought I had read a recipe on this thread that you can store the biscuits in the fridge or maybe the freezer and when you are ready to bake them you bring them out, cut them up and bake! Sounds good to me but now I can't find recipe! Can anyone help me? And how long do these last in the fridge b4 having to be baked? THANKYOU!

dylze - 2007-07-22 19:14:00

I have this one... Block of butter(room temp)
tin of condensed milk
3-4 cups of SR flour

Mix in mixmaster until 'biscuit' dough consistency...you may need more or less flour.
refrigerate and then form into logs. Wrap in clingwrap and put extras in freezer.
Take out a log (thaw if necessary) heat oven to 200c. Slice thin slices (5-7mm) off the log and place on tray on baking paper
Cook until lightly brown and crisp.
Add interesting things like, choc chips, cocoa, cinnamon and spices, dust with coffee crystals, make jam drops. sandwich with icing etc etc

webkiwis - 2007-07-24 10:55:00

just made some cream cheese brownies 125g dark choco, 125g butter, 2 eggs, 200g caster sugar, 1t vanilla, 75g flour, 200g cold cream cheese.
Preheat oven to 180 C.
Melt chocolate and butter, while you're waiting for it to melt beat eggs and sugar together and add vanilla. Cool chocolate mix slightly and beat in eggs and sugar. Finally add flour and beat until smooth. Pour 1/2 mix into a 23cm cake tin, and slice the cream cheese thinly and lay over the top of the mix. Pour the rest of the mix in making sure the cream cheese is covered. Bake for approx 20 mins, the top should be slightly pale but dry and the centre sticky.
I usually double the mix as I find it's not enough, and bake for about 40 mins.

Preheat oven to220*C. Lightly grease oven tray. Sift flour, b.powder and nutmeg into a bowl, rub in butter, and then stir in the sugar. Make a well in the centre; add pumpkin and milk with a knife, using a cutting motion, until dough comes together in clumps. Lift onto floured surface.

Just have to share (rocky road) This is the most divine recipe. My sis makes it. It dosen't go hard when it sets. Just melts in the mouth. 1 packet of dark chocolate melts (nestle) 75 gm butter half a tin of sweetened condensed milk 1 packet of marshmallows (pascals) 70 gm of cashew nuts (you can buy them in a packet in the cooking section at the supermarket, non salted) Melt together in a heavy based saucepan over a gentle heat. Cool slightly then add 1 packet of marshmallows chopped in half and the 70 gm of cashews chopped in half. The mix may separate when you are heating it but just keep beating it and it will reconstitute. May take a while though. Good luck and happy eating.
