Who doesn’t like a good bake sale where you can buy delicious homemade cookies, bars, breads, and caramel rolls? Oh those caramel rolls—hot out of the oven with ooey, gooey caramel and pecan halves. 
This morning, members of our department brought in treats they baked last night to sell to other employees who work at the headquarters building of General Mills in Minneapolis. This was our seventh bake sale to earn money for the ...

A concerned mom posed a great question on the Betty Crocker message board last week. Her daughter is an avid baker who aspires to be a professional chef when she grows up. The trouble is that the would-be chef enjoys making treats like cookies and brownies as hands-on learning, and perhaps enjoys too many sweets, according to mom.
As a cookbook author and recipe developer, I can definitely relate. Often it takes me a few tries to pe...

We held our annual Bake Sale today. I think almost everyone in my department contributed some sort of goodie. From banana bread and scones, to cupcakes and heart-shaped cookies, there was something for everyone.
All the proceeds from the sale go to Second Harvest Heartland. General Mills, as a company, always has a food drive in March so we turn the money from our sale over then and General Mills matches the amount. Viola! Double the dona...

So Renee, our very kind administrative assistant who organized Wednesday's Bake Sale, released the final results from the event. We wound up collecting $979.00 for Second Harvest Heartland, beating last year's record of $551.00. A certain anonymous donor (you know who you are and we thank you very much), threw in $21 to bring our grand total to $1000. According to Second Harvest's website, every dollar donated allows them to distribute $9 worth of food. With the match from General Mills, that comes out to $18,00...

When I offer to make something for a bake sale, I always want to bring something that is unforgettable, or at least so delicious that folks will ask for my recipe. With that in mind, I thought long and hard about what to bring to our fundraiser bake sale Heidi told you about yesterday.
I came across a recipe for Gingered Lemon Scones with a lemon curd filling, which sounded wonderfu...

We had a Bake Sale today at work with all the proceeds benefiting Second Harvest Heartland, a hunger-relief organization. This is the fifth year we've hosted the sale. The first year we made about $90. This year is looks like we're going to top $800. As is the case every year, General Mills matche...
