aawwww and indeed I did
I've got some chocolate chip cookies cockaigne from Joy of Cooking in the oven right now. The recipe calls for 1 2/3 cups all purpose flour and I use 1 7/8 cups whole wheat pastry flour, to ease my conscience

haven't baked since last week. however some bananas need to be used so either muffins or bread tomorrow. gonna add dried cranberries.
Made some more gluten free muffins for DH. These ones are cranberry applesauce with whole cranberries, not dried ones. Very good.

Nothing for us today - I have to go to work in a little bit, so I'm just enjoying tea and catching up on reading posts here! Keep on baking!!
I made a Coconut Cream Pound Cake. I am trying to tweak it to add to my flavours for wedding and specialty cakes. It's getting there. It must be good because while DH was stuffing his face he told me I should probably make one more to get it perfect!

That coconut cream pound cake sounds amazing! Maybe post a recipe somewhere?
I was going to make that pound cake too. (Thanks for the link BTW) Instead my girls made macaroons.

got this made, sugarless, half splenda white and half splenda brown. added the berries and baked in the little tiny loaf pans just for fun. very tasty. i thought it could have used more banana. i like them really moist. have done the sugarless before and with more bananas they are really moist. gonna freeze some.
Must be a banana craving doing the rounds. I'm going to do Oatmeal banana muffins tomorrow.
Okay, okay everyone don't panic - form an orderly line and take a few deep breaths. Now that you are calm, here's the link:
Coconut Cream Poundcake
I am still tweaking so I won't reveal my changes, but a tip is that the first time I made it the outside cooked too fast and by the time the centre was done the outside was quite dark. I lowered the temperature to 315 and baked the cake for the full 1 hour 20 minutes and it was great.

I'm making biscuits to go with sausage gravy. (OK, they are coming out of a can, but I do have to turn the oven on).

My mother's recipe for peanut butter cookies, which my family thinks are the best:
MOM’S PEANUT BUTTER COOKIES
Mix:
½ cup shortening (Crisco)
¾ cup white sugar
½ cup brown sugar
¾ cup peanut butter
1 egg
Sift & Add:
1 cup sifted flour
½ teaspoon baking powder
¾ teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
Roll in balls the size of a walnut and flatten with a fork dipped
in flour (make crisscross marks on each cookie with the tines
of the fork).
Bake 8 to 12 minutes at 375 degrees.
Makes about 3 dozen cookies.
