Not much has happened for me since my last posting. I have been spending most of my time surfing the internet looking for the right Red Velvet Cake recipe for the cakewalk next weekend. I finally found one with a cream cheese frosting. I was actually surprised most of the recipes called for a cooked frosting similar to butter cream. But, I have been told by many the a red velvet should have a cream cheese so that is what I went with. I can't wait to make a whole cake this time. Up until now I have only made cupcakes.
Yesterday, I did make another carmel apple trifle, but this time I made a few adjustments to fit my family's personal taste. I used a smaller box of vanilla pudding, used 2 cans of apples instead one, and used a homemade angel food cake instead of ladyfingers. It was a bigger hit than the last one. But, the one thing it did do was leave me with a bunch of egg yolks. I had no idea what to do with them. I know it isn't that big of a deal to throw them away, but since I know I will be making another angel food for next weekend, I figured I need to find something to with at least some of those egg yolks. The only thing I came up with so far was Creme Brulee. If any of you have any suggestions and it doesn't have to be a baked good either, please let me know. I am willing to try anything. I am almost positive that I will try my hand at the creme brulee. That should be fun.
Lastly, I would like to thank a very dear dear friend of mine, S. She designed two business cards for me and I think they look absolutely fabulous. I am hoping this weekend to get to a office supply store and get some business card paper and get some printed up. Once I get them printed up I will show all of you. Again S, thank you so much. I think you deserve some chocolate meringue cookies as payment.
Until next time..... Happy Baking!
