Hey there,
During the holidays’ everyone spends hours in the kitchen baking. Vanilla Butter Cookies, Gingerbread cookies, cakes, and of course our very own Greek New Years’ cake. So, I did continue to work on my baking skills, I baked a Greek Vasilopita, cookies, and these delicious Mini Chocolate Bundt Sponge Cakes. Don’t get me wrong I was truly happy with the end results.
But while I was in the kitchen for hours I came to this conclusion once again. I love to cook more than I love to bake. With cooking, I don’t have to calculate and weigh every single ingredient. Whereas with baking OMG every single ingredient needs to be precise!! Cooking is definitely more relaxing a little of this a little of that and “oops too much salt well ok I’ll just throw in a peeled potato and it will soak up the excess salt” that’s me thinking out loud. (I have been doing this a lot lately) So, after working on my baking skills I decided that I will stick with cooking and do a lotttt less baking. 🙂
This was the last recipe of my personal baking challenge in 2020. I posted this recipe back in 2017, it was a chocolate sponge cake garnished with chocolate ganache. This time I omitted the chocolate ganache and decided to change the look and sugar-coated the mini cakes. I have only four cake molds, but this batter makes around six, so just keep that in mind if you decide that you would like to try out this recipe. 🙂
Have a great day everyone and I’ll be back soon with my first soup recipe for 2021!!
