What are good suggestions for teenage baking/cooking?!


Question:

What are good suggestions for teenage baking/cooking?

Does anyone know of a good food, recipe, or website for baking and cooking at a teenage level?
I really love to bake/cook. But I'm afraid I've been though all of my cookbooks, and I'm in search for more recipes to make things.

I prefer deserts.

Thank you.
:]


Answers:
I have a Betty Crocker cookbook FOR teens I do believe. I got it from my mom when I graduated 8th grade. I'm now married...and I still occasionally use it, lol.

I prefer baby's, teenagers are a little too tough.

the best website i have come across is www.videojug.com its fantastic for recipes and many other things. it the above doesn't work try www.videojug.co.uk

Good to hear of teenagers enjoying cooking.
I use the UKTV food website http://uktv.co.uk/index.cfm/uktv/food.ho...
they have 1000's of receipes and are graded easy - hard.

Here's my teenage sons' favorite:
Special K Bars
heat to boiling: 1 cup sugar and 1 cup light corn syrup
remove from heat and stir in one cup peanut butter
mix this into 6-7 cups cereal
press into 9x13 pan
top with 1 cup chocolate chips, let them melt (I usually put the whole thing into a warm over for 5 minutes to speed this up)
spread the chocolate and let the pan cool - about one hour depending on the weather.
ENJOY!

easy, but very tasty!

well my niece love Jacket pots with cheese and bean or chips she love nearly every day!! mad!!! or u can try ur own make it up like stir-fry -- chicken with onion (white) fry them in little oil, then u can add some pepper (red, yellow, orange and green) that little lata, aft the chicken is done not over cook just white, u can add some sauce from shop any sauce it for chicken or sweet n sour tin then u add the pepper last. then u are, u can have with rice or chips.

Good luck in your quest I sincerely hope that you find someone to try them on, and who deserves you.

There are tons of cooking sites on-line. I don't believe there is any difference between teenage cooking and adult cooking. I have always believed that if you can read and follow directions YOU can cook ANYTHING. Have a great time experimenting. I love to make deserts too. The fancier, the richer, the better.
