judging from appearance I think I may have overcooked...

tasted fine tho

now we call them eczema cookies (no offense intended)

i left my beignet rise in my fridge overnight, do we think the evaporated milk was bad??

i’ve never seen anything like this

I bought a spiderman cake mold. When decorating I realised I have no idea what I'm doing. At least it tasted ok!

I think I didn't use the right pan for this. It was just some easy cocoa batter with sour cherries.

At least it's really tasty. 🙃

I watched the most recent episode of “A taste of murder” last night and was inspired to try making cannoli today. Thought I’d be fancy and dip one side into molten chocolate. Flavor wise, they are exceptional….visually speaking, I learned one important lesson: dip both sides of the shell in chocolate BEFORE filling it.

I know the pieces in the container look like they have cake consistency, but that’s cause I had to freeze them so I could slice them, back when I was still trying to force the cake identity onto this creation. After eating a few pieces, and accepting that it was not flourless chocolate cake, I came to the glorious realization that it was the best chocolate mousse I had ever eaten.

So I made a banana cake and realised a bit too late that I used more liquid than I did the last time I made it.

The outside of the cake is crunchy while the inside is halfway between fluffy and gooey. It still tastes great regardless but it can’t be baked any longer. I’ve already tried for 2 hrs.

Is there any way I can save the cake? I’ll eat it as is for now but I wanna know if I can make a snack out of this or anything.

PLEASE READ!!! MY CAKE BATTER WAS NOT AN ISSUE. YES. I PURPOSELY LEFT OUT THE SUGAR. IT DID NOT SEEM TO AFFECT THE BATTER. I HAVE NO ISSUES WITH THE BATTER. PLEASE STOP TALKING ABOUT THE SUGAR. thank you

I followed the recipe (almost) exactly except I didn't add sugar to the cake since it had strawberries and yogurt. The cake was very cold when I iced it. I'm not sure why my frosting did what it did lol hopefully it tastes good. I thought about maybe turning it into cake pops but I'm not even sure if that will work.

Making a massive tray style cheesecake bar recipe. Multiplied the recipe by 3 to fit this massive pan, well apparently pan wasn't as massive as I thought. Even had to pull some filling out to give a little bit of space for rise in the oven. What do we think, will it stay in the pan, or over spill into the oven? Place your bets

Update! It didnt spill, the edges baked high enough that the middle did not overtake the pan and spill out. Total bake time was almost 2 hours at 325, low and slow. Thanks for coming on this journey with me!

Hi everyone, I baked this cake last week and even after two hours I couldn’t get it to look ‘neat’ – I’m completely at my wits’ end. How can I improve this next time? (It's the bottom-left corner)

This happened when I was trying to cook a pizza for dinner. I accidentally left the marshmallows in the oven and that's what happened.

It looks like strawberry flavored mac&cheese
