My goal with this project is to bake something new (or, on occasion, an old favorite) every Friday.

The Goodies:

✔ [10.08.10] Bake: Pumpkin Pie ♥ | recipe courtesy of Karen E.
- Comments: Who doesn't love having pumpkin pie during the Thanksgiving holiday? This recipe; however, calls for squash instead of pumpkin, which is a fine substitute and I would even venture to say, better than the traditional pumpkin.
✔ [09.24.10] Bake: Light New York Cheesecake ♥ | recipe courtesy of America's Test Kitchen.
- Comments: Made a chocolate ganache topping this time. Yummy!
✔ [09.17.10] Bake: Light New York Cheesecake ♥ | recipe courtesy of America's Test Kitchen.
- Comments: This was a delicious cheesecake. The goal of America's Test Kitchen was to bake a cheesecake with the same great texture and taste, but reduce the calorie count. Instead of a more regular 4 cups cream cheese, this recipe called for 2 cups cream cheese, with the remainder being made up of yogurt cheese and cottage cheese. The result - perhaps the cheesecake was a little less rich, but the taste was still amazing and it was not "rubbery" in texture as some "low-fat" cheesecakes can turn out.
✔ [09.10.10] Bake: Apple Cherry Pie

✔ [08.06.10] Bake: Chocolate Cupcakes ♥ with Fluffy White Frosting | recipe courtesy of Joyce B.

✔ [07.30.10] Bake: Chocolate Cupcakes ♥ with Vanilla Butter Cream Frosting | recipe courtesy of Joyce B.

✔ [06.04.10] Bake: Lefse ♥ | recipe courtesy of Laft Hus.
- Comments: Lefse has long been a treat in my family, with the tradition being passed down through the generations. Lefse is a Norwegian flat bread, made from potatoes. It can be prepared different ways, with perhaps the most common being simply with butter (but some people add fish or even for dessert, brown sugar).

✔ [05.21.10] Bake: Christine's Chocolate Chip Cookies | recipe courtesy of foodnetwork.ca.
- Comments: These are excellent chocolate chip cookies. Golden brown edges, but soft in the center. The taste is very rich and decadent! Perfect paired with a cool glass of milk.
✔ [05.14.10] Bake: Mocha Brownies | recipe courtesy of foodnetwork.ca.
- Comments: Very chocolate-y, which is always a good thing. Great topped with vanilla ice cream.
