Steph's first cookware

Mirror finish so lovely. My new pots and pans came in 2 days ago but I havent' had a chance to open them yet because Spence was in town so we did fun family stuff away from my apt. Then upon homecoming I was reminded about an assignment I forgot to do. Grawr. I am sleep and this week has way too much work. I am hiding pictures of delicious things so maybe next week.

I had the box open for all of 2 minutes and it's been claimed.

Thank you stork.

Gateaux aux Yaourt with nutella

I've been done with class since 11:30 this wednesday! It rocks so hard. And so as celebration, look what I can do before the second half of class gets out! This is a french yogurt cake marbled with nutella. Apparantly it's like the first thing french kiddies learn how to bake and they use the little glass yogurt jars as measurements. I'm sooo jealous, I want yogurt jars to make some pots de creme. Anyways the recipe is:
The Baker’s Apprentice: French Yogurt Cake which i suppose was in the new york times. Then I also used "Stacy Snack's" method of adding the nutella portion which I thought sounded really good. You take 1/3 of the batter and mix it with 1/4 cup nutella. Then add that portion to the rest of the batter and marble! It smells so nice, I've only tried a small portion of it and it's technically supposed to rest right now so I think it's good hahaha. Tada.

Note to self: 37 minutes at 350 degF, could have pulled it just a little sooner probably to avoid cracks, try not to watch youtube videos while waiting unless a timer is set.

Yuuuummy, note to self: you like Bertolli brand sauce.
