THIS IS TOO MUCH SUGAR FOR ME. Aria

The post was not about how much to use but about how to measure the amount you will use.

I too have found too much sugar in most frostings and etc. Also, way too much frosting for the cake. Often I only use half of the frosting for a layered cake and have a lot of wasted frosting.

I usually will cut the frosting recipe in half for recipes like that

My 23andme dna test says I prefer savory treats though. That might have an effect on how sweet I like things.

I prefer savory too. Never did the dna testing and didn't know they gave you that type of results!

Did I miss something?
The Chess Cake recipe does not call for frosting the cake. The cream cheese is mixed with eggs and powdered sugar and poured onto the cake before baking. So, kinda like a cheesecake with a dense cake layer on the bottom, right?

Penny put frosting on it-- and then there was discussion about measuring powdered sugar.

Measuring would be the same for both frosting and cakes that use powdered sugar

I would like to apologize if my video was a little too “gruesome.” I feel like it was.

Goose is in brine, taking it out in 5 hours.

According to my calculations, this goose needs to cook for 1 hour and 35 minutes and 15 seconds.

I don’t know when I’ll have the goose though. Trying to figure that out.

Hey I cheat the frosting was bought used all of it just as wanted ..
the cake was great as the top kinda sank like when it
came out.
Morning Bakers, Sorry Jared no longer hunt or fish but you go for it.

Do you know what I just realized? 3500 pages on this thread! It’s come a long way!

I understand you don’t hunt or fish anymore, That’s OK. I was just apologizing because that video was a tad too gruesome in my opinion.

Let’s change the subject from the goose video.

How many of you are baking today? What are you all baking?

Yesterday I baked a pizza and today I'm re-heating it...not really baking but it's tasty anyway!
