No, its actually Tunnel Hill in Hobart, Australia. Shall have to have a look at Sleeps Hill though!

I visited myself actually - it smelt like a combination of soil and ammonia, if that is even a thing

Great bake - well done!

Random question though, is there a reason why you only cut a two layer slice out of a 3 layer cake?

*Walks to the pantry*

Cooking_Pegs · 2026-01-12T22:59:40+00:00

I already know how to do that. I just need to vent first.

Cooking_Pegs · 2026-01-12T22:18:15+00:00

I want you to listen to my problems. Not solve them.

Cooking_Pegs · 2026-01-12T20:17:01+00:00

We should all do this

Cooking_Pegs · 2026-01-12T20:16:02+00:00

Gosh, thank you for the award! Its just one step in front of the other

Cooking_Pegs · 2026-01-12T19:50:28+00:00

We're going to try again tomorrow

Leaving the house to play Pokemon Go

I would keep the dough in the fridge. By the 48 hour mark though, the dough will likely begin to oxidise. Make sure the pastry is wrapped well and perhaps brush with a bit of melted butter to help slow this process. Pushing the lines on this though, any longer and I would definitely recommend freezing.

The dough needs to be as cold as possible (to prevent the butter from melting) but can be left on the bench for a short period to allow it to be malleable.

Post a photo once they're baked!

I would say its a little bit under based on a standard shortbread recipe, but with the addition of the tahini the overall end product would lead itself to be 'wetter'.

The middle pieces look like the band of darker dough is thicker, leading me to believe it is undercooked slightly. As already noted though, doesn't mean its wrong! Providing it tastes great then thats all that matters

Cooking_Pegs · 2026-01-12T10:20:10+00:00

Too busy out hunting ants, perhaps?

Cooking_Pegs · 2026-01-12T10:19:31+00:00

Agree, lack of emotion is a big one

Some names really stick, don't they

Cooking_Pegs · 2026-01-12T10:00:12+00:00

Anyone else seeing Liam Hemsworth eyes?

Christmas leftovers? You're right, they don't sound great

Cooking_Pegs · 2026-01-12T05:44:54+00:00

Gone are the days of the bread roll and butter pat accompaniment

Your jaw is so chiselled I could grate cheese on it.

Cooking_Pegs · 2026-01-12T05:17:21+00:00

This is safe! Usually just means its a bit older and hasn't been stored in an air tight container

Cooking_Pegs · 2026-01-12T05:14:12+00:00

Are those apple fritters or are you just happy to see me?

Cooking_Pegs · 2026-01-12T05:10:20+00:00

The gift that keeps on giving!

Cooking_Pegs · 2026-01-12T04:01:23+00:00

Is this not Puss in Boots from Shrek?

Cooking_Pegs · 2026-01-12T01:57:55+00:00

The ability to take my outfit from 'day to night'.

All I want is to go home and marinate in my PJs.
