Back to Basics
Julie | January 28, 2012
The January 2012 Daring Bakers challenge was to make basic baking powder biscuits, or scones (depending on your location). I made maple-pecan and Swiss chard versions to accompany butternut squash soup!

The April 2011 Daring Bakers challenge was maple mousse served up in edible cups. I made almond-banana cups edged with chocolate, and made maple-bacon s’mores just for fun!
Pierogish
