Ashleigh_B_Bakes- Baking, Cooking, Crafts

Back to Baking!

Wow, it has been a L O N G time since I posted- that's what 3 full-time jobs get me (very little time to share what I have been up to)!...

New season, new bundt!

Recently, I was chatting with a friend and asked what they would like me to bake... They gave a couple of options but I had mentioned...

Getting to know you... or in this case me!

Okay, so let me introduce myself to those who may not know me. My name is Ashleigh (my nickname is B, hence the bumblebee in the logo)...

Fall is upon us: Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Pound Cake

If you are anything like myself fall means baking season has begun! Although, let's be honest for me it never really goes away... So with...

Blueberry Bread: good any time of year- the secret is frozen blueberries!

I meant to post this during the #parisolympics but got too involved watching the games! Luckily I am right on time for the #paraolympics. Good luck to all of the amazing athletes coming and congratulations to those who have completed and congratulations to all of the incredible athletes who competed in the Paris Olympics- see you again in 2028! Go #teamusa! #la2028olympics

Another movie night snack in the books! This theme was Chris Farley- I took inspiration from his film “Black Sheep”. Homemade chocolate peanut-butter cupcakes topped with homemade chocolate buttercream icing.
For the sheep: faces were made out of fondant, the “wool” was mini marshmallows. For the black sheep I used black spray food grade spray.

Made these cute little cup cake pops inspired by the movie Groundhog Day. I called them Punxsutawney Phil Push Pops. Chocolate cake, “Phil” is made from a Milky Way, candy eyes, mini m&ms for ears and cheeks, starburst nose and marshmallow mouth.

Opps didn’t miss #nationaldonutday🍩 (it’s 6/7) so now Im posting this early! Here are the first ever donuts I made from scratch this past weekend! Used @kingarthurbaking chocolate donut recipe with some slight modifications of my own. These little cuties are delicious!

Happy Belated National Puppy Day to the newest addition to our crew! @lordradford you have been an amazing addition to our family and we are lucky to have you. #nationalpuppyday #nationalpuppyday🐶 #longhairchihuahua #chihuahuapuppy #chihuahualove

Santa Paws is coming to town! Happy Holidays from myself and my loyal humans xo I hope you all get lots of treats, belly rubs and toys!

First time making pumpkin 🎃 shaped rolls. Not picture is the compound fall spice butter that accompanied. Happy October!

Made my first Babka ever yesterday. Decided to go non traditional and make a raspberry chocolate filling (with extra chocolate bits layered in) and a raspberry syrup on top. It was great and lots of compliments! Excited to keep experimenting with this wonderful bread!

First time making a Pineapple Upside-down cake and it’s so good! Didn’t know what I was missing! Made mini cakes for an event but made this one for home.

Been a L O N G a time posting but still always baking! First time ever making homemade focaccia thanks to @breadwright & @kingarthurbaking small batch cheesy focaccia. So good will definitely be a repeat recipe!

Haven’t posted in a long time but that doesn’t mean I haven’t been baking. First monkey bread of the season! Changed it up by swapping pumpkin pie spice for cinnamon and then added cream cheese frosting to the top.

Now that my busy season is over, I am back to my baking posts! Loved this Lemon Raspberry Bundt cake recipe from @bostongirlbakes

Same buns but festive! Made this bun wreathe for a friend the other day for their holiday gathering. I think it’s cute and as always recipe is on point! Thanks @kingarthurbaking for the recipe and flour!

Made something a little different today! 🐝 is my family nickname so I had to include it in my design!

Tried a different recipe this week form @bettycrocker Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Pound Cake. It was really great, cake was very decadent! As always using my favorite King Arthur APF!

Finally got my account back online.- for Instagram at least and starting out with the first apple pie of the season! 🍎 🥧 #kingarthurbaking #kingarthurflour #applepie #fallbaking #fallbaking🍁🍂 #bakingwithbutter #pillsburyrecipes

Happy #piday had to play along! Here is my pizza pie with pepperoni and sweet mini peppers! #piday2021

First time doing the #tasteofhome #bakeable challenge and brownies from scratch! I have NEVER made brownies from scratch before and oh man is it worth it!

These brownies are sooo thick and chocolatey it’s ridiculous! Even non brownie lovers will love these!!

How it started vs how it’s going. First time making rolls! They may look a little dark on top but looks are deceiving- they are super soft, light and fluffy! Thank you @kingarthurbaking for the recipe!

Tried something a little different tonight and made garlic, herb and cheese rolls! They were pretty good- need to alter the recipe slightly but overall a success!

Yesterday was my birthday so I decided to make a small cake. Homemade cream cheese frosting with funfetti cake cheers to another year!

Home made chocolate cupcakes tonight with homemade fudge frosting! Both recipes found in Hershey’s Chocolate Lovers Cookbook. And always use King Arthur Flour.

Homemade hamburger buns tonight for dinner. Added onion flakes for taste & texture. Recipe from @kingarthurbaking beautiful burger buns

Sometimes you just need a cupcake! What’s your favorite flavor?

Growing up Friday meant pizza night! The last few months I have been trying to refine my pizza making skills. Cant complain about this one! What’s your favorite topping?

Homemade Chocolate Chip cookies- tried out a new recipe and really happy with how they came out! Missed posting this on #nationalcookieday but better late than never!
