Dinner was canceled this week due to the weather (we were going to do a beach bonfire but then it was too foggy and cold). Cold weather makes for cozy baking, so I still made two desserts 🙃
Boston Cream Pie
We went out for donuts on Saturday and were discussing how delicious Boston Cream Pie flavors are so I tried to make one - but the custard ended up too thick (which is half the delicious joy of a Boston Cream Pie). The ganache was still perfection and the cake texture was very good. Recipe from ATK.
Strawberry Summer Sheet Cake
Strawberries are still very much in season and so good! So the strawberry treats will continue - in my opinion, this was way better than the strawberry almond pound cake from last week - and yields way more cake! Also most importantly, it is more focused on the strawberries 🍓 Recipe from Smitten Kitchen
