I want to bake some nice little cakes or biscuits, have you any ideas?

Question

I've made jam tarts and choc chip cookies and gingerbread but I fancy making something nice simple and bite size and looks tasty!

Answer 1

Cinnamon-Sugar Biscuit Bites

3     tablespoons sugar

3/4   teaspoon ground cinnamon

1     package active dry yeast

2     tablespoons warm water (110 [degrees])

3/4   cup whole-wheat flour

1/2   cup all-purpose flour

1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

1/4   teaspoon baking soda

2     tablespoons cold butter or

margarine, cut into small pieces

1/2 cup buttermilk

In a small bowl, mix half the sugar with half the cinnamon; set aside. In another small bowl, mix together the yeast and water; let stand about 5 minutes to soften. In a large bowl, mix whole-wheat and all-purpose flours, remaining sugar and cinnamon, baking powder, and baking soda. Cut in butter with a pastry blender, or rub mixture between your fingers until it is the texture of coarse meal. Add yeast and buttermilk; stir to moisten dough evenly. With your hands, pat dough to incorporate all the crumbs. Drop dough in about 2-teaspoon-size mounds about 1/2 inch apart on 1 or 2 lightly oiled 12- by 15-inch baking sheets. Sprinkle dough evenly with reserved cinnamon-sugar mixture. Bake in a 350 [degrees] oven until lightly browned, about 15 minutes; if using 2 pans, alternate pan positions halfway through baking. Serve warm; if made ahead, let cool on pan, cover airtight up to next day. Uncover, and return to 350 [degrees] oven until warm, about 5 minutes. Makes about 3 dozen.

Almond-Parmesan Biscuit Bites

Follow directions for cinnamon-sugar biscuit bites (preceding), omitting sugar and cinnamon. Decrease whole-wheat flour to 1/2 cup and add 3 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese and 1/4 cup chopped toasted almonds to dry ingredients.
