I bake pretty much weekly, not to keep me fat, really. Like to give most away. Cookies always ready for giveaway or snack.Right now there is blondies, coffee cake and loaded peanut butter cookies on the counter, bored! Have to make my aunt's favorite soft ginger molasses cookies soon, so hard to scoop, tears! Have a large 6 pro kitchenaide I purchased 10? years ago, maybe longer and a small 4.5 the almost son and his wife gave me last year. I also have a Bosch multi? 6.5 qt I think, mixes very well, like it better for dough but just feels off to use after years of the Kitchenaid. Cusinart processor for my grating and grinding, have the hub for the mixer, but its slow and messy by comparison .Much butter and flour in the freezer.

Decent dough, easier if you don't want a lot.

If I could pose a question to my other baking gurus? I have a gas stove and oven which of course is vented top and bottom so it doesn't stay terribly warm for proofing and rising dough. I ignite the flame in the bottom for just a moment and leave the oven light on before I put anything in there to raise, what is your thoughts on putting a pan of hot water in the bottom to keep it warm also but of course that would raise humidity. Any input would be great, thanks. David

I figured ask here! They were beautiful either way, maybe fuller with the hot bath 🤔

My good friend Hans Craig taught me that when it comes to baking, you can't just have one mixer. And when it comes to cleaning, you can't have just one vacuum.

My house smells great too. The Italian pepper cookies (a staple in our area) contain ground cloves, in addition to several other spices. So, you can imagine how the house smells.
This house has 10' ceilings, so, it's amazing when anything is cooking. When I make spaghetti sauce (monthly), I put it the slow cooker for about 8 hours. Awesome aromas!! |

Getting ready to use the MixMaster. I'm making Hans Craig's Southern Holiday Cookie Recipe. Isn't she so pretty in pink? What did Terry used to say? "So Pank". Like a model 65. Won't the house smell so good? I love baking.

Ahh, I think you are correct with the color name, Target, the small one. 4.5 qt. Pretty to see on the counter, but big jobs need the bigger black 6 pro. It's just not my favorite to use all the time a bit overkill, and I don't think it mixes small batches very well but that's just my opinion. Loud too.
