Baking can seem quite intimidating, especially to someone who doesn’t bake much/at all. However, you definitely do not need any experience to bake a meal that will water both yours and the mouths of anyone who tastes it. That being said, here are 8 delicious baked foods anyone can make!
Topping our list is one of the most visually appealing and rich tasting cupcakes you’ll ever eat. They are cupcakes stuffed with Canadian iconic Timbits (if you cannot use Timbits, any donut holes will work).
All you need for the Timbit cupcakes are a pack of Timbits, vanilla cake mix, some butter, sugar, whipped cream, and vanilla extract. You can choose to stuff the cupcake with a Timbit inside (like a turkey), or put the Timbit as a topping (like cherry). There are so many possibilities, and it only takes 45 minutes to prepare.
Anyone who eats this will think you have years of baking experience!
