Creative baking was the word today! You see, I got this chocolate Easter bunny from Mum. It was very cute, but not made of real chocolate - only of this low-quality cocoa icing stuff. We tired to eat it, but it tasted like... like nothing, really. But it was a 160 gram-bunny, and besides, we don't throw away foodstuffs on principle, as long as they aren't rotten or whatnot. And the bunny wasn't rotten. It just didn't have any flavour whatsoever.

So I consulted my baking recipes, and in one of the spell books I found a chocolate biscuit basic recipe. I added some modifications, decorated the finished cake with peach slices, banana slices and strawberry pieces, covered the whole thing with jelly - and the results were absolutely faboulous.

So, in case you want to try it, the ingredients are:

3 eggs
100 gr sugar
20 gr vanilla-flavoured sugar
50 gr melted butter or margarine
100 gr flour
50+ gr melted chocolate

Just mix all ingredients, stir it well for 5 or 6 minutes, pour it into a cake tin (paint the tin with butter first and strew flour all over it) and bake it on a relatively low flame (Grade 2 in a gas oven) for 20-25 minutes. Once it's cooled down, you can decorate it with whatever you prefer.

I hope it was understandable. I really don't have any vocabulary where cooking or baking is considered.

Creative baking is fun! I'm happy to hear you got to do something you enjoy before the stressful work week ahead of you.

Mostly, I did it because the flat was so frigging cold without the central heating in these days. But Mum was very happy with the results, plus it wasn't much work, so I'm content, too.

Baking is certainly the nicest way to warm the apartment!

I'm not sure biscuits are meant to work without eggs. Are you allergic to eggs?

Mmmmm...
