Catching up!!

Apologies to my fellow bakers! Traveling, work and life in general have made me fall bahind as far as blogging is concerned. Also, being new to this sport, even creating a new entry is not a simple event!

But......... I HAVE been baking. With mixed success but i think (I am afraid to say this out loud) that I am getting a little better. And i mean little.

So to catch up.....

Here are my Chocolate Truffle Tartlets

I didn't have much trouble making them but I did need to use a lot more water than the recipe called for. Having said that they were so rich that i would make smaller ones next time and serve with ice cream. I had to join Weight Watchers after eating a couple!
 
And my Rugelach....forgot the egg wash but they were lovely to eat. What a mess though!!


And finally my Irish Soda Bread
 


   

Not normally a favorite in our house but if you cut a thin slice and grill it its quite nice!
