Snickerdoodles

I am taking a short break from my candy making and indulging in another of my favourite past times - baking.

I have decided that I also want to try lots of new recipes as I have tended to stick to the tried and tested, mainly cupcakes so I am breaking free and trying new things.

This has mainly been fuelled by watching the Great British Bake Off and wanting to make what I saw! I have downloaded the application form for the next series but having looked at it I have realised that I am really lacking in some areas so I need to start making the type of thing that is on there. For example I don't think I have ever made my own pastry so I am going to give that a go at the weekend and make a pie for my parents who are visiting.

I am going to start with Snickerdoodles which are cakey biscuits that look yummy!

Well they turned out ok, I managed to make them between bathing Nathan & cooking our tea.
