It’s 11:30 pm and I’m typing super fast to put this up in time for this month’s Daring Bakers’ challenge. This month the bakers baked French Tuiles. I’ve always wanted to try making these and this challege forced me to make it, instead of simply letting it remain in my list of things to do!
I’ve to admit, I haven’t been a good Daring Baker this time (heck no, a couple of times!) – instead of making these well in advance and posting just when the clock struck 12, I baked them just this morning. Luckily, these were very easy to make and were ready in minutes if you don’t count the resting time of the batter in the fridge.
This month’s hosts Karen aka Baking Soda at Bake My Day! and Zorra aka Kochtopf at 1x umrühren bitte have chosen the recipe for the Tuiles from The Chocolate Book by Angélique Schmeink and Nougatine and Chocolate Tuiles from Michel Roux. You could hop over to Karen’s blog for the complete recipe!
Strawberries are in season ans seemed like the perfect light accompaniment to the tuiles. Would be better with some whipped cream, though. This was a fun challege and left me wondering why I hadn’t tried making tuiles sooner!
