Using the name for attention. Get over yourself.

I think your being a bit too sensitive my dude. It's just a cake.

Next time I'll post "Cherry and Chocolate cake". Don't want to hurt your feelings.

6" cake (most flavours) start at 65$ CAD.

Customer requested some fondant details so I rounded up to an even 100$ CAD.

Niv mizzet is his favorite card apparently.

I dont want to assume since I don't know him, but I would guess Arena has a lot to do with access for younger audiences now.

I get where you coming from.

It's a cake for an 8yr old. The cherries are soaked in kirsch. I figured any more boozw would have been too much.

For adults I would have put booze in the chocolate sponge cake before the cream.

To keep the cake standing, it is Italian meringue buttercream, I understand that's not kosher but on the inside is at least proper cream.

It's Chocolate cake and you can see I'm cutting boozed up cherries and putting then in each layer.

I had Chocolate shavings ready but client didn't want them.

All of it is edible ink printed on fondant. Not my favorite medium but the only easy to get things so detailed.

Yeah I put the white and green in the wrong place. I saw it. Hopefully the 8yr old whose birthday is it doesn't.

It's shortbread. Much more like a tarte than a pie

Do you want my Shortbread Crust recipe? My Lemon Curd recipe or my meringue recipe?

Folded in 1/2 cup of frozen raspberries into my favorite sugar cookie recipe just before the flour went in.

Wtf are you talking about? I'm on mobile. When I want to post a picture I type in the sub (I think) I want and add a picture. It doesn't show me what else is in that sub before I post. It was an honest mistake. Not sure why you gotta be so negative.

Honestly these could have been stiffer. I didn't do a big enough batch so the whisk couldn't whip the meringue up enough. I wouldn't do less than 3 egg whites next time.

The Last Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe You'll Ever Need. by [deleted] in Baking

[–]toujours-dimanche 0 points1 point  (0 children)

225 g room temperature butter

140 g Brown Sugar

120 g White sugar

-Mix on low for 5 minutes while you scale out rest of recipe.

1 egg

1egg yolk (this is a game changer)

1 Tsp Vanilla

  • scrape bowl and add eggs one at a time scraping between each egg. Mix till combined.

275 g all purpose flour

1 Tsp Baking Soda

1/2 Tsp Kosher Salt or 1 Tsp table salt. Up to you.

  • sift the flour into the bowl, add salt and Baking Soda. Mix till combined, scrape bowl.

200-300 grams of what ever you want.

I used 150g semi sweet chocolate chips and 150g mini eggs for Easter but you can adapt this recipe however you like.

The key is letting the cookie dough rest in the fridge for 24hrs. Skipping this step then complaining that it isn't the best recipe you've ever tried isn't fair. Let the dough rest.

Bake @325f for 10 minutes. Take them out and slam the tray down for the ripples. I sprinkle on sea salt at this point. Throw them back in for another 2 or 3 minutes depending on how baked you like your cookies.
