Daring Baker.

I joined The Daring Kitchen (the main reason why I started this blog!) and recently completed my first challenge.



The January 2010 Daring Bakers’ challenge was hosted by Lauren of Celiac Teen. Lauren chose Gluten-Free Graham Wafers and Nanaimo Bars as the challenge for the month. The sources she based her recipe on are 101 Cookbooks and www.nanaimo.ca. The Nanaimo bar recipe is here.

This was a really fun challenge. I never thought I could make my own crackers! I am excited to make regular graham crackers for Nick someday. These bars were ok - they were actually a little too sweet to me (too sweet?? wha . . . ??) and also, the buttercream layer really just tasted like butter. It was super fun though and I look forward to may more Daring Kitchen challenges!
