recipe | Earl grey tea cakes

I was so excited when Amy announced she was adding a recipe section to ASWC! Baking is my first love, even before paper and fabric! I love being able to make something and share it with family and friends.

As part of my commitment to myself to create a project life album this year, I decided to include a recipe for a cake each week. (you can see my project life pages over on my blog) Part of the fun of baking something is hunting out new-to-recipes to try (pinterest is a great source), but my favourite source is the taste website.

Now, I have a confession to make - I’m a stickler for following recipes to the letter (except for adding extra spices or chocolate!) I don’t invent my own concoctions, so I won’t ever share something I invented, and I won’t deviate from a recipe so you can know if it worked for me, it will work for you!

This week’s recipe was for Earl Grey tea cakes. Aside from being a little bit dry, everyone loved them! Even husband, who was worried about eating tea leaves, thought they were good!

Do you bake? Do you have a favourite cake recipe?
