This week two of the ladies at work have a Birthday so today was “food day”. Since there were two birthdays and two different tastes I made two things and took them in. I made a Carmel Tres Leches Cake and Almond Cheesecake Bars. The Tres Leches Cake recipe I got off of Duncan Hines’ website and the Cheesecake Bars recipe I got off of Taste of Home’s website. The people at work loved them! Personally I thought the cheesecake bars could have used a little more almond taste and I think some raspberry flavor of some kind could have helped too. I was hoping the caramel iced tres leches cake would taste like a bull’s-eye candy. Since I am not a big fan of caramel myself I don’t really have a thought on how it tasted or what it needed. It was really nice to bake two things last night to take in today. I love baking, I find it my stress reliever and I haven’t taken the time to really do it in a while now. It felt good, I miss it and I should make more time for my baking.
Wow those both sound yummy!
Not too bad! I think the cheesecake bars were a bigger hit but they liked the cake too.
