Ice Cream Ganache?

Hi Bakers, I’ve been wanting to try this cake for months and had to eat it twice to love it. I’ve never made or tasted it, so I was expecting more chocolate instead of the subtle blend of vanilla and chocolate with a rich ice cream ganache glaze. Maybe it’s a baker thing, when you bake all the time, you get super critical and don’t experience the actual bake. That’s what happened here. Once I had a chilled slice of this moist and a bit dense cake with great flavor I really enjoyed it, and I bet

The scone that celebrates spring flowers deliciously.

Hi Bakers, If you want an unusual scone, you need to try this one! Delicious, tender almond scones are drizzled with cherry blossom glaze for a light, floral flavor you can’t find anywhere else. Get the powder online and be sure to use good-quality almond extract for the best possible flavor. Are you brave enough to try it? I hope you do and send me the photos. Enjoy! ~Carolyn Gluten-Free Almond Scones with Cherry Blossom Icing Makes ten 2.25” scones DRY 2 cups Cup4Cup Multipurpose Flour (Origin

Better than the classic? Espresso Toffee Chocolate Chip Cookies

Hi Bakers, Why do you need another chocolate chip cookie recipe? The classic is the perfect cookie, but if you want something a little richer, a bit bougier with some layers of flavor, you really need to try this version. I wasn’t prepared for how much I loved it. The sea salt with rich buttery toffee, espresso, and chocolate is to die for and something you need to try at least once. I ended up, adding one more egg yolk that you don't see or hear on camera, use the amounts listed in the recipe.

Crackers that are free of everything but taste!

Hi Bakers, Should you make your own seeded crackers, or is it a waste of time? I get so mad eating expensive and tasteless gluten-free crackers, so I decided to try making them myself…but was it worth it?? I would 100% make these again; my only complaint is that I wanted them to be crisper. I loved the simple way they came together and the healthful ingredients in them. The pumpkin and pumpkin spice with seeds and dried cranberries were festive and delicious. These crackers are a beautiful glute

Baking a Gluten-Free Pumpkin Roll Cake for the First Time (It Almost Failed!)

Hi Bakers, My son and his girlfriend went to the Farmer’s Market and brought back a beautiful pumpkin roll cake. It looked so good, I thought why haven’t I made one?? Oh yes, I remember I was terrified to try and roll a cake in a cylinder. I’m not sure if I got brave or just desperate to have a bite of this cake! This is my first attempt at making it and revising the recipe to be gluten-free too. Make this cake if you love a moist, sweet pumpkin cake with lots of rich cream cheese and butter ici

Gluten-Free Coconut Pineapple Shortcakes

Hi Bakers, Not quite ready for Fall and all things pumpkin spice?? Get one last taste of summer in this classic dessert remixed. If you love coconut and pineapple, this might be the recipe for you! Just because you don’t normally put it in a shortcake doesn’t mean you shouldn’t!…and I put this to the test, adding lime-infused pineapple instead of strawberry with gluten-free coconut shortcakes. Try this if you want sweet, limey pineapple with lots of whipped cream over tender and buttery shortcak

Gluten-Free Peach Streusel Breakfast Cake

Hi Bakers, Want a cake with so many peaches it might just be a serving of fruit? Well, not quite, but it’s a delicious breakfast anyway! Make this gluten-free bake if you want a hearty, moist cake that’s lightly sweet, packed with peaches, and lots of streusel too. I love that it’s sweet enough to feel like a treat but not so sweet that I feel like I shouldn’t have a slice in the morning. This is the perfect companion to a nice cup of tea or coffee. My one complaint about this is that it takes a
