{TWD} Thumbprints For Us Big Guys

Sometimes I find that I stray from a recipe and it turns out ten times more delicious! Sometimes I find that a change I makes affects the dish more than I had desired. Every so often, I read through a recipe really carefully and thoroughly.

The last batch of cookies I made, I discovered just before [...]

{TWD} Honey Wheat Cookies

The adventures with Dorie have included a lot of butter and chocolate. In moderation, those things are not that bad, but on a weekly basis, they tend to be slightly frightening. This week’s ingredients include honey instead of loads of sugar, wheat germ instead of, well, everything bad for you…so this week’s recipe seemed to [...]

Meyer Lemon Cookies

Dear Lemon,

I hate to bring this up. I know, the last time I wrote, it was well, to sort of break it off with you. You know the story: I needed you; you were never there; someone else was. I admit, the time I spent with Key Lime was wonderful. But, I admit he was [...]

{DB} Tuiles

After the bakery construction project of the French Yule Log for December (which I loved!), the hostesses chose something light and rather simple for this month’s challenge. I admit, knowing both Karen and Zorra, I truly and honestly expected something that used yeast and had bread in the title. I was a bit taken aback [...]

Merry Christmas!

Here’s hoping you are having a wonderful & blessed Christmas Day!

Merry Christmas!

These were perfect cookies to bake and decorate this Christmas. But, of course, they would be delicious in any shape, for any season!

All-Occasion Sugar Cookies were served up for Tuesdays With Dorie. This weeks TWD recipe was chosen by Ulrike of [...]

{TWD} Buttery Jam Cookies

I admit to having high hopes for these buttery cookies flavored by jam although the idea of apricot is not high on my list of loves. I had already made up my mind to use marmalade that I had on hand, which wound up being a mix between orange and grapefruit. I thought that would [...]

{TWD} Linzer Sables

Maybe some people loved these. I didn’t.

Where should I begin? They were crunchy. (Maybe mine were too thin.) They were hard to get off the cookie sheet. (The first few came off fine, then as they firmed up, they broke.) The flavor of cloves were too strong. (I could have omitted it, but normally I [...]

Cranberry Oatmeal Wedges

My friend was coming by to visit. Sure I had several tasty treats on the counter, but nothing fresh was coming out of the oven to greet her. The clock was ticking. 15 minutes until she would knock on the door.

I had been to the gym earlier that day with my Cooking Light magazine in [...]

{TWD} Rugelach

Never have I tasted a “real” Rugelach. In reading about these delicate spiral cookies, I learned they are Jewish in history and are typically made without dairy ingredients of any kind. The Rugelach that we made this week included a cream cheese dough as well as chocolate in the filling. They often appear as crescents, [...]

TWD: Lenox Almond Biscotti

This week was my opportunity to select a recipe from the large Baking: From My Home to Yours cookbook. There really were so many things I wanted to choose, but decided on something that hadn’t been done before with TWD – Biscotti! Both the Chocolate Biscotti and Lenox Almond Biscotti sounded absolutely delicious to me, [...]
