This weeks bake was a request from one of my best friends, the infamous caramel shortbread, a classic of the tray bakes and something I've always wanted to try. Also a great thing to munch on while, on a coach to Leeds. Although this is seen as a simple bake it did not come without its obstacles, for example my tray being too big or too little mixture. Either way I used a bread loaf tin which worked fine. Then ironically I had too much caramel so I recycled it to make caremel apple, very appropriate for the oncoming Halloween festivities.
Although they don't look perfect, I had rave reviews for taste and I quite like how they are. There's a homecooked look about them, rustic and original, perfects boring anyways. They make quite a picture, their sharp edges looking like cliffs juxtaposing the smoothness of the apples. Oh god I must stop trying to sell them to you, well for me the tragic baker, they were an achievement. And I was right, they would have been great to munch on for a long journey to Leeds...
... That is if I had remembered to bring them. At least my baking is better than my memory..
