Four Easy Baking Recipes

FacebookTweet
College Magazine May 10, 2010

 

Stacie Caplan>Senior>Film>University of Western Ontario

Baking is a great activity to do with friends or to help reduce stress during exams. There is nothing more exciting than smelling fresh baked cookies in the oven. These four recipes are simple, delicious, and fun to make. However, if you live in a dorm and don’t have access to an oven, check out the common room, cafeteria, or visit a friend’s house to use the oven. These delicious treats are worth it!
