I have the baking bug. I used to bake all the time! But recently, I’ve cut back for health reasons. No matter how hard I try, I undoubtedly have to try one of whatever I make.
Today, I was presented with the perfect opportunity. Some friends in my program are working on a plan to submit for a competition. Tonight they’re pulling an all nighter and are in desperate need of a pick me up! What’s better than a delicious baked treat for a chilly day?
Enter my dear friend, Ina Garten…
