I decided to challenge This Cookin’ Dad to some seasonal recipes this year. The first one up was easy. It was a King Cake for Mardi Gras. You see, we live in Central Virginia and King Cakes aren’t really a thing around here. I remember Brian finding one back in 2004. Yes, I can remember this based of where we lived at the time but I can’t remember what I wore yesterday. That is so sad. Anyway last year he complained he couldn’t find a King Cake around here so I figured the easiest way to fix that was to have him make his own!
I saw some of this …
And some of this …
Do you follow me on Instagram and see the pictures I posted there?
Here is a half of a King Cake. To see the rest … check out the King Cake post over at This Cookin’ Dad! (I’ll break the news that he not only made one but he made SIX King Cakes this year!)
What do you think? How did he do?
The next challenge for This Cookin’ Dad is Irish Soda Bread. Do you have a favorite recipe he should try? Let us know!
