Week 22 : 48 Hours - Tarte Tropézienne

Recipe from Claire Saffitz’s Dessert Person. This was a bit of a fail for me - my brioche didn’t rise so I had to make a second one, my crème pat was too thin, folding in the whipped cream made a soupy mess, and it didn’t want to hold together at all! I ended up having to put it in the freezer just to get it set enough for a photo. However it was still tasty! I would try this again, maybe for nemesis week.

Week 17 : Breakfast/Brunch - Cinnamon Crisp Coffee Cake

Recipe from King Arthur
I like coffee cake but this recipe gave me trouble. I struggle with the reverse creaming technique and unfortunately wasn’t super successful here. The flavor is fine, but the baked really missed the mark (as evident by the collapsed bottom). Oh well, another learning experience!

Week 15 : Laminated - Cardamom Brioche Buns

I’m so behind, but trying to catch up! These laminated buns are the first time I’ve had true success with attempting lamination. I almost cried when I saw the layers! Also I love cardamom, so these were an all around winner for me. Recipe from King Arthur
