Put on your aprons and warm up your ovens… the SIXTH CHALLENGE is here!
We know you’ve had your share of home cooking, so let’s make baking fun!
Since we’ve been sheltering at home, we’ve been going through our cookbooks and pantries. We found hundreds of hidden gems in House & Garden’s and Wine & Food’s cookbooks that inspired us to do this BAKE OFF!
When Ina Garten wrote her cookbook HOW EASY IS THAT she acknowledged that, “if a recipe goes on for pages, using lots of complicated techniques and special equipment – forget about it!” So, we’d like for you to be inspired by her words when entering this BAKE-OFF. Ina’s no nonsense “saving you time and avoiding stress“ approach is the reason that her cookbooks fly out of stores on to your bookshelf. AND speaking of that, Ina will be signing her complete collection of cookbooks as one of the prizes of our #charmossbakeoff.
It’s simple – give us your recipe and a photo of your dessert – something simple, easy and appetizing! It has to be baked; bread, cookies, cakes, the list goes on!
So, have fun, I look forward to the recipes you will all share.
To enter:
Post your recipe and a picture of the finished product by the end of the day Friday, May 15th
