Obviously you need to build a wood-fired outdoor oven.

 

That oven design doesn't look very useful for making syrup.

Meant to post a pic of the whole cake, last Saturday made a snap decision last week to bake my dad a carrot cake for his birthday.

Nutella cookies.

Those look to be perfectly baked.

Peach cobbler.

Obligatory vanilla ice cream procured.

Looks freakin' delicious, Steve.

Dropped it off at work for the weekend crew. Got a few calls saying it was good.

[Voltron]

But did you bring them vanilla ice cream too?

I know there's a bread thread, but this isn't exactly bread.  There were like 7 rotting bananas this morning so I made two loaves of banana bread and coffee cake (not pictured).

Facsimile machine powered up and ready!

Yet another cheesecake. This one is to take to the MOA compound tomorrow.

I hadn't forgotten about them, but last I was there it was Dorothy's Birthday dinner, and I knew that Claire would be baking a Birthday cake.

Like my maccaroni dish, this is something I believe I've perfected over the years. We'll see what the judges have to say.

Also going to Casa Bedecarre.

This one for New Years friends and guests. 

My first Coffee Cheesecake. It looks quite dark on top, but smells fantastic. Not sure if the coffee has something to do with the color.

swt61,

Those cheesecakes look AMAZING!!!

I bake once a year these days.  Cookies for the folks on my block.  This year I went with white chocolate macadamia.  I baked some proper looking "cakey" ones, but the ones that really sold looked like this...I kept the dough less cold before putting them on the pan.  Folks like the more caramelized edges I'm guessing.
