What's the last thing you baked?

Oh, racheeeee, that looks lovely!  I wants!

Since I have a bunch of bananas on the turn, banana bread. 

An angel food cake and then about a ton of ice cream with the leftover yolks. 

a loaf of Granary bread

A homemade pizza.

I baked triple chocolate chunk cookies last weekend, but they didn't last too long.    I think I will make something for us tomorrow, but not sure what. Maybe a Victoria sponge, since I have never tried baking a sponge cake before.

COOKIES!!!!!!! 

Jamie's recipe is supper easy for the Victoria sponge, or this recipe is similar:

I think I'll have to do Tiffin next week, but I can't call that baking, can I?

What's Tiffin? 

That recipe does look fab! Especially with some posh raspberry jam and fresh whipped cream. Yum! Only problem is that I only have one springform pan, although I have two regular cake tins, but they are a bit on the small side (not sure exactly what size they are... maybe 8", but not very tall). I wonder if I should try using the cake tins and just discard any extra batter that won't fit, or should I just pour it all in the one springform pan and then slice the cake in half to make two layers?

Oh yum. Actually, that just gave me a wicked craving for those no-bake chocolate and oat cookie things I used to have when I was a kid. I have no idea what they are called, though.  Oh how I love them. 

Just baked some shortbread rounds and about to make some raspberry bakewell bars. Yummy.

I didn't like the shortbread recipe I used at all. Yuck! It called for semolina which seemed to make the shortbread all gritty and gross like sand between my teeth. I tossed those out to save my reputation so the family wouldn't blame the baker.   

But the raspberry bakewell bars are dreamy and then I baked some sweet potato and pecan bread. Yummy. 

Some wholemeal bread for tomorrow's breakfast / lunch.

Sorry your shortbread didn't do the business, Jewlz.  I'm not a Bakewell fan but loads of raspberry may hide the 'dislike' parts.   

Nothing as good as Jewlz or Mrs MLG has been making mine is boring it was a sweet tater.

These have a shortbread type layer on the bottom, a raspberry jam layer in the middle, then topped with an almond sponge cake and sliced almonds. Very tasty, I think! But I'm not sure which part you don't like, so you still might not like them.
