Two days ago Ms Morabito let us choose our own healthy recipe because she's the sweetest teacher. Our group chose the banana ginger parkin because it look like an intresting recipe. I liked making this because it was easy and straight forward. I enjoyed this cake because it had a nice ginger taste with banana which was awesome.

flood cookies

A little while ago we made cookies with icing on top of the cookie we made most of these cookies for us and we gave three to our favourite teachers I decided to give mine to Ms Morabito because she is the nicest and the best teacher I've ever had <3 . We made two different types of icing one was for flooding our entire cookie and the other for doing the border. This cookie tasted really good because of the icing and it looked fantastic.

Apricot Crunch Muffins

We made these suprisingly delicious Apricot crunch muffins. In this recipe we used the muffin method which means we didnt mix the batter only until it was lumpy. We used cinnamon and apricots in this recipe. We had a crumby topping for it too with some almonds, sugar, and butter mixed together. I thought this muffin was goin to taste bad because of the ingredients we used but i was shocked at how good this was.

Jalapeno Cheese Muffins

Last Monday we made jalapeno cheese muffins with flour, cornmeal, corn , and bell peppers. It tasted really good because of the cheese and i also liked how it was a little spicey.  When making this recipe you only need to stir the liquid and dry ingredients about 6 times so there arent any tunnels in the final product.

Fondant Layer Cake

We made a fondant layer cake with fondant that was made out of marshmellows it tasted really good. we first made a chocolate cake then after we make fondant by melting marshmellows on a stove. after we rolled out the fondant and put it on the cake then we finally added the pocodots and a bow tie to out cake.

Valentine Cake

We made a valentine cake and it was really good because of all the strawberries on top. It was a foam cake that had whip cream on top with chocolate covered strawberries on top. The Strawberries made it taste good.
