Not all of us are like that--I have too many things to take care of to be a baby when sick....

I have DH's birthday cheesecake in the oven. Cheesecakes make me nervous (this is only the 3rd one I've made). Keeping my fingers crossed it turns out ok!

I read somewhere you cook it for so long and then shut the oven off and leave it in there for several hours and it won't crack.

And so it begins......first batch of hot cross buns in the breadmaker! Thought I'd do chocolate chip ones for a change.

That's what my recipe calls for. Bake and leave in the oven 5-6 hours. The first time I made it, no cracking. This time? Cracked!

Oh well, DH said it still looks delicious and he wants a piece for breakfast (guess that IS when his b-day starts, lol).

If he's happy that's all that matters

Will you share a picture with us when they're done? The chocolate chips sound like an interesting addition.

I never have but it seems I remember it being mentioned when someone was making fondant?

Ohhhhh look what I just found in my Molly dye survival manual while looking how to remove lipstick stains. A bee sting recipe! Yummo!!

Making it now!

Edited to add baking for 3/4 hr at 200c was too long. Five minutes before my timer went off I could smell it starting to burn. So probably closer to 35 minutes.


And my chocolate hot cross buns. Turned out yummy!

Very common flavor in the shops over here now days.
