Apolyton Cuisine: brownies, chocolate cake, cookies... it's Baking time!

[Ecthy]

Hi.

Cooking has been raised several times at this place, and the tradition of using uniform titles for threads beginning with "Apolyton Cuisine" has not yet been fully established. I shall continue my crusade

But no matter how good your minestrone or antipasti, Lancer salad or pasta sauce, let's forget cooking for now and turn our attention to a field that has been neglected at this place since I asked for a chocolate cookie recipe a year ago: baking.

What's your favourite cake to bake? Do you produce the strongest chocolate tart in your family? Share your best recipes. And help me out with basic steps.

I don't get to bake things as often as I can try out my cooking, so I lack experience. I want to make a nice chocolate cake with a simple basis, add some blueberries and maybe cranberries as well as chocolate chips. No icing, no whipped filling or extra cream. Plain chooclate with chocolate chunks and blueberries. All I need is a recipe for plain chocolate dough. I could look on the internet but it's full of highbrow specialty recipes

we need a gay smilie.

Care to explain how cooking and baking would be gay issues?

unless you are a chef, those activities should be done by women.

*dis runs after making those comments*

I can heat things (beans, veggies), I can cook spaggheti (well, people often complain I don't cook spaggethi right..) I can cook rice (I have a rice cooker), I can do a stirfry (sometimes comes out OK)

I've become quite well known for my vegan chocolate chip cookies and rosemary walnut bread.

Hmm, post recipes? At home I am Vegan.. (when I am out I am not, and a Latte just doesn't taste right with Soy Milk)

(also, I don't see anything wrong with Organic Milk, except for perhaps health)

I'll be posting my Lump Cookie recipe here in the future...if you're all very lucky.

I'm gonna attempt to make banana bread tomorrow. Seems pretty simple. I'm a pretty good cook, but baking is my weakness.

[Ecthy]

Same here KH. Share your result!

Unless they are green brownies

For best results, use bananas that have turned brown.
