Baking Challenge

Petit Fours

Have fun giving your creation a name and please describe your recipe.

Halfway There Petit Fours: I'm in the process of making these for our family Labor Day gathering and I didn't want to put them together too early. 1) Chocolate Chip Zucchini Cake with a dusting of icing sugar and chocolate design on top. 2) Glazed lemon poppy seed. 3) S'mores.

Tell us about your creation's final texture after baking. Are you happy with it?

So far, so good. It will all come down to the details. I'll post a new picture with next week's submission!

Detail how you added a Wisconsin twist to your flavors or presentation.

Zucchini cake is a recipe from my mother-in-law and uses a zucchini from a friend's garden, lemon poppy seed uses poppy seeds from Penzeys, and s'mores remind me of early fall campfires!

How did you do?

Pleasantly satisfied.
