So, you're frantically walking down your grocery store's baking aisle, perhaps just learning that you have 3 dozen cupcakes to make for your child's class party tomorrow, or maybe your co-workers thoughtfully signed you up to make your infamous double chocolate chip brownies for tomorrow's holiday celebration...the question is: Will they be from the box or scratch??
Is it really always worth the extra effort to follow Grandma's recipe, or will it be more time-, cost-, and taste-effective to grab the box of dessert mix and go?
Well, this is my first blog and as an avid baker, dessert-indulger, and chocolate fanatic, I found a natural inspiration to blog about them! I'm hoping to investigate and compare boxed desserts with actual recipes from scratch. I'll try and give a run down of prep/bake time, ingredient expenses, taste quality, and overall visual appeal (how bad it makes your sweet tooth throb!)
Come join me in my kitchen and I hope you'll find me and my discoveries as sweet as the creations I'll be making.
Pre-heating...complete!
First trial?...I'm thinking brownies...stay tuned.
