this has been on many of my lists for many years, but now i can check it off. i finally did it, i made brioche::
overall, the making wasn't too bad. i think i had been putting it off because i had convinced myself the process was too involved. not so. however, the cooking time in the recipe i used (from this book) was way off. even though i pulled them out 15 minutes early, they were overcooked! very sad, i know. but i wasn't too brokenhearted. the overcooked factor made me feel much better about using them for french toast. the thick-slice, custardy kind. with powdered sugar on top. i love brioche!
