I was making a batch of Chewy Granola Bars, and it was looking a bit dry after I added in the oatmeal & the 2 cups of stuff... so I pondered. Instead of vanilla I had used a lemon extract, I was thinking of adding a tablespoon of peanut butter to add a bit more wet to the mix.
Does peanut butter & lemon go together? I gave this 30 seconds of thought before deciding not to find out in this batch of baking.
I'm not very experienced in what goes with what. I know peanut butter & chocolate go together, I know chocolate & lemon can go together but I don't know if peanut butter & lemon would make a good mix.
I think when we were pondering frostings to put on our lemon wedding cupcakes (oh does our baker make awesome lemon cake), we fell back on Vanilla Buttercream because we didn't know what would go really well with the lemon. At the cake tasting she was pretty busy with all the groups coming in & giving final or first instructions.
I'm happy with our choice of cupcakes. I can't wait to taste them!
In other news, with work being rather slow I've been thinking of doodling what the cookies will look like. I only have round cookie cutters, and I was thinking I wouldn't mind a fluted round, square or fluted square to add to this mix. I did end up going to the store in town to get the Americolor gels & they were less expensive than I thought THEN there was a 10% discount on them. WOOT.
I also picked up a whoopie pie pan, my first batch of those will be for the Hen Party.
