Nothing beats spending some quality time in a kitchen, but for myself; I prefer baking over cooking.
The delicious smell, the sampling of treats, the giggles and the fact that you can sit and eat your treats for days later, and with kids around you get to relive some of the funny moments that happened while you baked that certain treat.

I didn't grow up in a traditional house,
then again what is traditional right? ;)I don't have memories of baking with mom or grandma, or recipes that they passed down to me, and that's why I try to make sure I have those moments in my children's lives that are vital in my opinion. I google recipes, get them from books, make them, change them, re-invent them; it's all part of the fun!
This time we had our cousins and friends over for a bake-a-thon, and we made delicious chocolate chip cookies, Hershey's kisses cookies, a brownie type of cookie who's name was too funny and adult themed to mention lol. Most importantly we had a great time, sharing ideas, recipes, laughs; after all in my opinion THAT is the best part ;)
I don't have anything perfected enough to want to pass down for generations to come, but I do have the love and laughter that it produces, and as long as you have that in your recipe, you have a recipe for deliciousness ;)
Visit Hershey's Kitchens and take a look at all of the delicious goodies you can make.

No hay nada mejor que pasar algún tiempo en la cocina con seres queridos, claro que yo prefiero hornear algo sabroso en vez de cocinar ;).
El delicioso aroma, la toma de muestras de golosinas, risas y el hecho de que usted puede sentarse y comer sus golosinas dias despues con niños y revivir algunos de los momentos divertidos que pasaron mientras que horneaban juntos.
Yo no crecí en una casa tradicional, y al mismo tiempo que es tradicional verdad? ;)
No tengo recuerdos de hornear con mi mamá o mi abuelita, o recetas que pasaron a mí, y es por eso que trato de asegurarme de que tengo esos momentos en la vida de mis hijos que son vitales en mi opinión. Busco recetas en google, las obtengo de los libros, las cambio a mi gusto, y me encanta re-inventar recetas, todo es parte de la diversión!
Esta vez tuvimos nuestros primos y amigos a un horno-a-thon, y hemos hecho deliciosas galletas con chispas de chocolate, galletas de Hershey besos, un tipo brownie de galletas que el nombre era demasiado divertida y temática adulta mencionar lol. Lo más importante es que lo pasamos muy bien, el intercambio de ideas, recetas, se ríe, después de todo, en mi opinión esa es la mejor parte;)
¿Tiene algún recuerdo especial / eventos donde se involucran para hornear?
alguna receta especial que se transmite a usted?
¿Tiene recetas que ahora han dejado de lado a transmitir a sus hijos?
No tengo nada perfeccionado lo suficiente para querer pasar de generación en generación, pero tengo el amor y la alegría que produce, y siempre y cuando usted tiene eso en su receta, usted tiene una receta para delicia;)

I dont have memories of baking when I was a child but my sister and I are starting to bake with her 3 kids and my one grandson. For the past 3 years we have had a "baking day" around Halloween. We bake and decorate all sorts of treats and really have a great time!

My mom and I used to bake Christmas cookies while listening to Christmas music.

My mom has a really good peanut butter fudge recipe that she passed down to me. It's a little more crumbly than a typical fudge, but that's what makes it great.

My mom found a recipe for a chocolate raspberry torte a few years ago, and I definitely want to pass that down!

ReplyDeleteMy mom wasn't much of a cook so I never baked with her but my daughter and I used to bake a lot of cookies! I even ordered her a mini bake set from Land O Lakes years ago! It had a mini rolling pin, a mini cookie sheet and a mini rubber spatula. Perfect for little hands!
ReplyDeleteNope, no special recipes were passed down to me, unfortunately!
ReplyDeleteI actually do have a couple of recipes that I will pass down to my daughter. I have a wonderful recipe for Thanksgiving turkey and stuffing that I will give her and my recipe for homemade mashed potatoes!

I don't have any memories of baking when I was a kid. But I bake now with my girls since they were little and they are both teens now. Just out of the blue we will bake cookies on a Saturday morning.

I have a very specific memory of baking with my grandmother when I was a child. We were baking a cake and she was showing me how to take a spatula to "throw" the icing on to the top of cake however LOL, she missed the cake and it went all over the kitchen counter. It is a funny memory that I love of having of her cooking.

I have special memories of baking dozens of cupcakes for easter with my grandmother as a child. I remember seeing some neat ideas for easter cupcakes in one of my mom's magazine and asking her to help me bake and create and she was always delighted to do so.

when I was a child I used to make no bake cookies (chocolate ones with Hershey's too boot) with my mom... they were quick and easy and lots of fun on a rainy or snowy day. I also remember making chocolate chip cookies and sugar cookies right around the holidays. My daughter and I still have those recipes and we have a blast re-creating our own variations of them too!

My favorite memories of baking were with my mother at Christmas time and we would make colorful sugar cookies together.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite memories are cakes that my grandma would make. Each year she would ask my siblings and I what we wanted our cakes to be. I can recall getting ones like strawberry shortcake or rainbow brite. Plus I loved to bake things with my grandma like cookies.

Well, my mother was definitely not a baker... or a cook at all for that matter. I grew up on mac&cheese, hot dogs & whatever else was scrambled together. I don't think I ever even knew what that thing called an *oven* was used for! No joking! However.... I LOVE to bake & I do it very frequently with my almost 3yr old son. I let him help me make cookies, muffins & specialty cakes, even if he's just stirring it up after it's done. It's so special for me to be able to create these memories with him, in hopes that as he grows older, he will have fond memories of us cooking together. The kind that I *don't* have with my mother ;)

I have MANY special memories of baking both when I was a girl and now. One of my favorites is my Grandma (who I rarely saw) teaching my cousin and I how to make her special Cinnamon Bread and Nut Bread. I still have the recipes written down in my little girls handwriting just as she gave them to me.
