Love all your macs! Love also all the chocolate flavours - all my favourites, esp the chocolate-ginger and cardamom. You know, the bit when you talk about your cold nose? I had exactly the same just as I read it and needed to reach for some ginger... and a kleenex. Oh, I'm not from the tropics but don't particularly like the cold, damp atmosphere, either.<br />Gorgeous photos and what a bunny.

I usually have to open the door for 10-15 seconds to let some air circulate and to cool down the oven. cooking time would be the sameKimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01797447837056512561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4814829406224255620.post-21209064007850034232011-09-21T04:45:38.730-07:002011-09-21T04:45:38.730-07:00homy your bunnies look so so cute - papy nestor do...homy your bunnies look so so cute - papy nestor does look intelligent and ohso serious!<br /><br />i was just wondering about the oven timings - if i don't have an oven with top and bottom heating choices, for how long and at what temperature should i bake the macs at?
