I am an impulsive cook

Tweet

I start with a basic recipe, and just keep adding things. We always end up with something we will eat, but not necessarily something I would take to a potluck, for instance. I am working on a breakfast/snack cake right now. I started with a basic banana bread recipe, but I have added almonds, almond flour, almond extract and cocoa powder and an extra banana, and extra milk to get the consistency I wanted. That will be my breakfast, today. I think it will be great and it is a healthier way to get that chocolate fix that I am always wanting. I am baking it in a 9x13 pan. I thought about adding chocolate chips, and maybe will do that another time. Bob says a recipe is mostly meant to be a suggestion. I did look up chocolate banana bread and that is where I got the amount of cocoa powder to add. I was not going to add enough. So that is what I am up to this morning. Bob is still in bed. I have had a cup of coffee, and I just ate a few almonds, but I am waiting for my goodies to come out of the oven. Then I will enjoy my food.
