Marshmallow Nut Brownies

A good break from the cakes and breads I bake...here's brownies. They are so easy to put together when you have all the ingredients in hand and tastes heavenly too. I made this previously to celebrate two of my aunts who became grandmas...so brownies have an emotional story to it .. and this is how I made it..

Pumpkin Yeast Bread

I have been baking a lot of breads lately and the experience has been truly amazing. When you look at the baked beauties, its overwhelming. So here comes October, the Halloween month proposing a challenge from the Baking Partners and here is the lovely bread baked with a star ingredient - Pumpkin.

Honeycomb Buns or Bee’s Hive Buns - Khaliat Nahal

We knead to bake Challenge no.9 -  Honey comb buns.
 A Middle eastern delicacy,usually sweet and can be made savory too. Khaliat Nahal literally translates to Bee hive in Arabic.The name takes after the way the buns are baked so close to each other forming a honey comb pattern.

Flaming Fruit Pudding

This is a simple and awesome dessert........A delightful variety of fruit bites tossed into a bed of vanilla custard covered with whipped cream and top it with  thick broken bits of strawberry flavored jelly.

Chocolate Chiffon Cake

I made this cake a month ago - did not post it here. Love it so so much that I kept it for the 100th follower of A Portion to Share. And this goes out to Anita of Recipe with pictures......an interesting space filled with tested and tried recipes.

This is a very light and spongy cake from Joy of Baking............. so well described in the video and the post as well. I'm not repeating the recipe here ,because I have followed the JOB recipe word to word. Great cake...must try !
