Chocolate crunchies

Yes, I finally got round to writing another blogpost. I'm so sorry it took so long. I got a bit busy, so the baking took a backseat, but I'm back now. My apron is freshly washed and ironed, tied my hair up in a knot, got some fresh eggs and new packs of Sugar and flour, in other words: time to bake! :)

Before we get on with the actual baking, I'd just like to take a moment to say how much I loved the Great British Bake off this year, congratulations to Frances. I'm sad it's all over, but here's hoping next season will hurry up and get here quick :)

Stack 'em high, Pancake pie

Using the pancake recipe from last week, you can make this pancake-pie. Just something different...
It's really easy, definitely since you can make the pancakes 1 or 2 days early. Just pop them in the fridge for the time being and they'll be good to go.

Pancake time

Since I just started this blog, the layout and stuff can change a little every time I post something new.
After reading the previous post, I decided to tinker a bit with the layout for the recipes. The instructions will be more orderly, and the tips and tricks will  have a special colour.
You'll find out if I decide to stick with it or not.. :)

Ok, pancake time now.
Not the thick american pancakes, stacked on a pile and served with maple syrup and crispy bacon.. Strange habit I think, but then again, I don't eat pancakes myself. I have to say I'm one of the (very) few who don't though!
Anyway, the recipe is really easy, and hopefully my tips will help you get a lump-free batter and a light and fluffy pancake.
Here we go...

PANCAKES

Let them eat cake!

I thought I'd start with something simple, and that everyone likes... CAKE

 Though it only takes four ingredients to make them, you can spice things up by adding all sorts of differents flavours and/or toppings.
I'll be doing a separate blogpost about possible flavourcombinations later on.
For now, we'll focus on getting the basis right. 'Cause no matter how delicious your frosting, if the cake itself isn't up to scratch, you'll never be able to get a good result.

As I said, the ingredient list is very short, but the way you handle them makes all the difference in the world.
