Yes chef, I know better too. Especially now after switching from cooking to baking. Some things do stick but man...if we dont write it down, or make copies of what we DO have and then those get lost. Oof. And it feels much harder to get conformations (be it this feels familiar in ratios, process, ingredients, etc) from internet recipes anymore.
I've made so much gnocchi in my life that I thought id never forget it. After a six year gap, I did in fact forget.
I'd still eat your cheesecake, OP. I bet its still great. Happy holidays <3
I was just making oatmeal raisin cookies and didn't realize I was following the "wrong" recipe for oatmeal chocolate chip cookies until I was done creaming the sugar and butter and was just starting to dump the flour in until I got to the bottom of the recipe and saw the instructions "now add the chocolate chips!"
The recipes are from the same site (sally's baking) and they were ALMOST identical with slightly different ratios of butter, sugar and flour and the whole time I'm thinking "Huh, this feels slightly different but I must be mis-remembering something." until I got to the end bit with adding chocolate chips.
At that point I just said "eh, fuck it" and just went with the oatmeal, raisin and walnuts I was planning on, because it was far too late in the procedural parts to try to amend the recipe to be closer to the one I actually wanted.
It was certainly still oatmeal raisin cookies but instead of being the fluffier, softer cookies I was expecting they flattened out like chewy-crispy chocolate chip cookies due to the ratios being slightly different.

Even when we write it down it can go wrong.

Just tell everyone its basque-style
Cooking to baking is pain.
Baking to cooking is rediscovery.
Pursuing both is torture.
Mastering either takes time.
Perfecting each requires obsession.
Scream out loud, it’s warranted.
I have love for you - keep going.
Nice one, merry christmas
I’d eat the shit out of that!
I don’t think he said that he did any kind of filling though?
