Get More Gezellig

2 down, 1 to go

Last December, I made a seemingly simple resolution: learn to bake. I decided (quite arbitrarily) that I needed to make a cake, a pie crust, and something else before I decided it was done.

Since then, I’ve made a (quite good) cake, (kinda horrible) frosting, and a pie (bad filling but good crust).

To consider this resolution complete, I need to bake one more thing. Something that’s not a cake and not a pie; something that makes people go “ooh, nice!” when you bring it out from the kitchen. But what? I don’t know… a clafoutis? tarte tatin? some kind of quick bread?

Ideas?
