i was at the grocery store today and happened to see the chocolate bark stuff....so then i went back and got cake and frosting. i want to jump on the bandwagon and make cakeballs too

then i reconsidered cuz i live by myself and there'd be no one to eat them all, but then i reconsidered again when i remembered im going to a friends house over the weekend for dinner and i can bring them

(unless they turn out bad, of course haha)

i must have looked like an idiot walking back and forth up the baking aisle and getting stuff then putting it back then getting it again. haha

i got the munchies and this thread isnt helping

Munchies are usually after you do weed.

Somebody at my work yesterday was talking about how she supplies the food when her roomies and her get the munchies... and I thought she meant regular munchies till she mentioned that another roomie's boyfriend supplies the pot.

the walmart near my house doesn't have cocoa. is that weird or what?
maybe i should check again.. i think the last time I did was december. when I asked a worker, she pointed me to the hot cocoa mix and I told her I want the baking kind but she said they don't carry it. pfft, I thought walmart had everything.

it's impossible to find self-raising flour here!! and i've check every supermarket, i think. But i've found an all -purpse scone recipe...so let's see if my scones still turn out crappy! insha Allah not.

If you can't get the self-raising flour, you can add baking powder to plain/all-purpose. It usually works just fine.

All the best!

I made some YUMMY semolina cake and some mini jam doughnuts.

I'll post pics when I put all my old documents back on my new pc.

That looks amazing! Wow.
I decided to make it and even found an easier recipe. But I'm not going to. I'm staying away from the yummy desserts.

So my attempt at baking cake balls, not so good. I would say the dipping part was really hard, because my cake balls were still moist and my decorating skills didn't help either.

moonlightrose · #**405** (**permalink**) 03-21-2008, 07:59 PM
