Join me this week as we bake a birthday cake and talk about blame. I used a regular birthday cake mix and just follow the recipe on the box. You’ll notice that I try to make the cake striped and I think it worked a little bit. I didn’t get a picture of it turning out, but it does look striped.

You can substitute eggs on your box mixed recipe, just by doing a quarter of a cup of applesauce per egg .

Milestone episode! Thanks for continuing to join me on this podcast journey! 20 episodes whew!

Puff Pastry recipe from anitalianinmykitchen.com

1¼ cup very cold butter (salted)* cut into cubes

½ cup very cold water

¼ teaspoon salt*

2 cups all-purpose flour

** I think I over pulsed the butter/flour mixture and that was why it was too sticky. So note to self, less is more.

Join me today as I discuss my journey with panic while make pie! This pie crust recipe was passed down to me by my grandmother.

Pie Crust

3 cups flour

1 stick of butter crisco

1 1/2 tsp salt

2/3 cup of cold water

Use a pastry blender to blend in flour, crisco, and salt until it’s a crumbly texture. Pour in the cold water and blend with your clean hands until a smooth dough forms.

I’ve created this recipe! Just a little breakfast grilled cheese creation to help with those GRRRR moments.
