I hate hate high altitude baking! Ugh, mix that with my PMSy oven that likes the change temperatures randomly and I always have some sad looking (but still tasty!) cakes. Nothing more depressing that putting so much work into something for it to come out of the oven and look like a wild animal has already attacked it!

Except and here's the big exception, brownies. I've tried half a dozen different recipes but only one has ever gotten close to being as good as "box brownies." And you know what? That recipe calls for cake flour which I either never have or need for cakes so, yea, box brownies it is. Though I would love to try the recipe that finally worked for you!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
