have this thing going.. even though ive never met DF's work mates or there partners, its just a funny thing we are trying to out do each other...

DF come home one day and raved about some biscuts one of the fellas brought in that the mrs had made. so i was like well i wanna make something.. hehe:D so a few weeks ago i made mars bar slice, he said all the guys loved it, he brought it out on there arvo break.

im trying to think of something else i can make, i said to DF ill make little pavlovas and hes like oh nah nothing girly lol:laughing:

so i need a chunky mans treat id like to do another slice, but ive got no idea what.

:laughing: classic my DH is a chippy and because I am a chef the guys he works with always expect some fancy smoke-o.

I tend to have a basic rotation going that includes

-slices - rocky road, mars bar (guys love it hah!), lemon slice
-chocolate rum balls (prob their favourite)
-biscuit - ginger snap, chocy, yo-yo, anzacs
-cakes - banana cake, lemon cake, choc
-mufifns - basic patty cake muffin with diff flavours, like berries, chocolate etc
-I also have made them chocolate ripple cakes, chocolate crackers and toffee apples (oh and once I made fairy bread)

if you google search slices, biscuits and cakes you will get heaps of good ideas

Well considering it is Christmas soon, maybe you could make some Christmas cookies? I am doing this for DF lol.

Other than that I would just bake an awesome cake.

If I ever need a recipe though I just google it lol, I have my own little cook book where I write out all my recipes.

ive thought about doing lamingtons!!;)

i make really yummy jelly cakes, dip the cake into unset jelly and then into coconut, but i dont think DF would like me sending him to work with a plate of pink cakes:laughing:

Could you use blue, yellow or green jelly? Would that ruin the taste?

My mum use to make lamingtons out of car wash sponge for a practical joke! Thant could be funny!! :D

How about a curvy stripper in a french maid's outfit. that will beat the pants of any biscuits.

I know, I know - not helpful and probably only funny to me.

One of my DH's workmates did that once a couple of years back except he made a whole cake out of sponge wedges. He iced the whole thing and it looked fantastic.

The worst part is that he got me too. He sent me an email saying that he had chocolate cake and he was going to send some home with DH. I waited all day and was soooo disappointed. :laughing:

Sorry, can't help with any ideas. I'm a lousy baker.
