Different Frosting Types For Different Desserts
It doesn’t matter whether you’re eating a torte, a cupcake, a cookie, a layer cake, or a bit of pudding – adding some frosting to the top, middle, or bottom of any dessert recipe is always going to make it a success. Unfortunately, though, frosting isn’t a one-size-fits-all proposition. There are many different types of frostings out there, and choosing the ideal one of your next dessert creation is key to pulling it off.
Easy Frosting Ideas
Glazes are some of the simplest types of frostings. They’re created from powdered sugar and some type of liquid. Occasionally, a flavoring like vanilla extract or almond extract is added. These are always very thin, and in most cases, you pour them over the top of the dessert. They’re also pretty versatile, so you can use them on the top of a cake or some cookies, but they also work well for special treats like sweet rolls, or other types 
Girl Scout Cookies - Over the Years

While it’s hard to pin down the exact first date of a Girl Scout cookie sale, the first mention of the activity occurred in December of 1917.
By July of 1922, the ranks

How to Bake Without Eggs
From allergies to concerns about added ingredients, eggs aren’t quite the staple they once were. Instead, many avoid them at all costs. Baking, however, often calls for eggs in a way that other cooking doesn’t. Eggs can perform a number of different roles in the process of baking. They can help a cake rise, a custard thicken, or a sauce bond. Experts suggest they can perform up to 20 different roles in the baking process.
