Biggest baking disaster: Sadly, I'm still not sure what went wrong, but years ago I opened my oven to check on a batch of blonde brownies (blondies) only to discover sugar strings dripping from the roof of the oven. It looked like the batter exploded and shot out silly strings of yummy, yummy carmelized sugar. The blondies were ruined and the oven was not easy to clean.
doughnuts. Tim Horton's ads that have convinced me that doughnuts are the perfect sandwich accompaniment. Sadly, I don't live near one and haven't actually tried it out.
During college my roommate decided to boil a frozen chicken; thus, skipping the whole boring defrosting phase. She also decided to spend the day and night at her boyfriend's apartment leaving the chicken nightmare to bubble away on our shared stove. Unfortunately, I was not home at the time to intervene. I was, however, the first person to arrive home...excepting the fire department. I pulled up just in time to see a fireman kick in my front door and watch smoke bellowing out of the windows. Luckily, there was just a lot of smoke damage and nothing but the chicken, pot, stove top, and front door needed to be replaced. So, while this is not ultimately my cooking embarrassment, try telling that to the fire department who very much doubted my protestations of innocence.
writing "carob" seems really wrong here, so I'll go with truffles from Belgium.
A margarita from Frontera Grill...oh, why did I have to move from Chicago!?!?!

I like to try different candy recipes during the Christmas Holidays, so a few years ago, I found a recipe for homemade cherry chocolates. They were easy to make and tasted great, so I made a lot of them, for family and friends. Now, every Christmas they all want more of them, lol, which is fine, with me, they are easy to make and you can make them early in the season. They improve with age.
my biggest success was making cream cheese pound cake it came out so perfect that its a request every year
Biggest success is when I make my Candy Bar Cheeskcake. Always turns out perfect. I have never had any horrifyingly bad experiences. So far, so good (knock on wood).
Let's just say that you cannot switch Baking Soda and Baking Powder in and out...you must use what the recipe calls for...*bleck*
My biggest baking success was the Baed Alaska I baked for my husband's second anniversary.
My biggest success is my amazingly awesome Christmas dinners each and every year! I fix all of the traditional favorites and try 5 or 6 new recipes I have selected during the year for something special.
