I am literally the worlds worst at baking, I tried shortbread once and almost cost my entire family trips to the dentist [emoji23]

But today I am well pleased with myself, last night I made a slab old school style sponge and icing cake, gonna have some with custard after dinner mmm

And I've just made a batch of scones :flutter: look not too bad for a terrible baker imo but more importantly they taste amazing! :hee:

Glad that you've excelled yourself with your sponge and batch of scones though.

When I have the time, I usually make scones, quiche's and pasties, sponges etc.

I made some coffee kisses on Thursday and they are scrumptious, but i've put the rest away, otherwise i'd end up the size of a house by next week. lol

I’d like to think I’m not too bad at it

Those scones look nice :love:

I can bake inasmuch as I can follow a recipe, but I don't love it. I've said this before, but here I go again... I made a lemon meringue pie when I was at school and I asked the teacher how much of the lemon I should put in? She said, all of it... I suppose thinking it was a real lemon, but it was a Jiff squeezy lemon. My Dad, who loves lemon meringue, took a bite and his whole face puckered. At heart, I've never been much of a cook of any kind.

Josy, I'd have been as proud as punch of those scones.

I'm okay with a small set of recipes I've tried and tested... not many things I've tried to bake though (just can do the basics: a victoria sponge, brownies, muffins, cookies etc. Made a loaf of bread once or twice and it came out nice.

My go-to are these, though... if I could be arsed I'd make these every week

(cba with all that drizzle and decoration nonsense on top, just basically 2 separate batches of chocolate/peanut butter brownies on top of one another)

I make bread (in a bread maker)
I make cakes (those packs you get where you just add an egg)
So yeah, Mary Berry eat your heart out :laugh:
