With the holidays coming up I can't help but have baking on my mind. I'm looking for some great websites and blogs on baking. Please share your favorite baking sites.
I'm also looking for some new tools to add to my baking collection. So, please share baking tools you love or wish you had.
TIA

The three things I can not bake without (all pampered chef)


The batter bowl makes storage & mixing easier. The measure all cup cause you just push the gunk out, and the stone to prevent burning.

i love the bake350 blog for cookie ideas - bakeat350.blogspot.com. she pretty much does butter/sugar cookies with decoration on top and has tons of great ideas. for cakes, I like cakecentral.com (i decorate cakes on the side and sometimes use this site for inspiration).
ETA - I second the rec. on the Pampered Chef measuring cup - it fabulous! I use it to measure out the shortening when I make icing all the time. Also great for butter, peanutbutter, honey, mayo...the list goes on and on and on. If you get one, definately get the bigger, 2-cup one :-)
Just wanted to say hi, mrstran!
I bake like once a year, so I'm interested in any easy tips/recipes anyone has too!

I have two of those three things. And I have a stoneware piece, but mine is round for pizza, but I still use it for cookies. LOVE pampered chef.
I'm hoping to learn to bake really well this winter. I've always enjoyed toying around with it, but all of a sudden I have this desire to be really good at it. Anyway, I found this site that I like: https://bakingbites.com/
I'm a Pampered Chef junkie; if I don't already own it, I covet it. :P They have some good recipes on their website, too!

Hey MillerTime. I love baking...I just need to work on being more creative. I'm going to make cupcakes for my friends babyshower that I am hosting in January so I am trying do my research and get some practice in.

My favorite baking tools are my Kitchenaid mixer, stainless steel mixing bowls and measuring cups, my Wilton cake lifter and giant cookie sheets, and my collection of 300 cookie cutters. That about narrows it down

Oh yes, my baking mat. Love it. Sorry, Tran. I just can't really narrow down my favorites for you.
Also, if you follow the link on my baking blog, it goes to my regular one. If you go to the links for "cookies" and "cakes" I also have more pics of my stuff. I just haven't transferred them to the new blog.

What?!? I wouldn't have thought of that. Thanks for sharing!
Actually it's funny you say that. I was going to call you out on here that I'm sure you will have plenty of ideas to share, but I didn't know if you wanting me calling you out here. So, I figured I would leave it up to you. So There!
And now that you are out I will say....YOU BROOKELYN have jump started my current obssesion with baking. I think I saw one too many photos from you this weekend with all your cookies and cakes and cupcakes and you made me very hungry!
OMG! I totally forgot that I could bake in it. Thanks for that.
hahahahah! I don't mind if you page me, silly goose

It's not a blog but here is the greatest cookie recipe of all time!! Grandma Dottie's Molasses Cookies:
https://thisibelieve.org/essay/8262/
Thanks for the recipe. I can't wait to try it. Sounds delicious.
And thanks to all the other ladies for the great websites and ideas. I'm thinking I may ask DH for a kitchenaid mixer soon.
Ditto bakerella! Her cake balls are a staple at every holiday!
Do it. You need one.
Definitely do. I remember when I was on TK and everyone would answer the "what do you hope for most from your registry?" polls with "Kitchenaid mixer." And I was all "whatevs. Those things better give orgams for the price." And then I got one, and I get what all the fuss is about. I'd have burned out about 10 hand mixers by now without my Kitchenaid.

LOL!!!!!! So what you're saying is it does give orgasams? bahahaha
This has been my thought exactly for years. But, now your making me want one.
Foodgasms. They give foodgasms. And also whatever it's called when making cookie dough is super easy instead of a pain the ass.
