Recipe Word Find December 19, 2007; 12:01 am

And the only thing I can’t find is the point.

I came across this while looking for a new chocolate glaze recipe. I found this, but oddly enough it gave me the option to go here.
The recipe is pretty straightforward but if you opt to change the recipe to the puzzle, be sure to take down […]
Wilton Cake Release December 14, 2007; 11:14 pm

Okay, call me simple but greasing and flouring cake pans tend to be hit or miss with me. I mean, how hard can it possibly be? Either way, each time I do get the significant layer of crumbs come off the bottom and sides of my cakes until I shallowed my pride and bought Wilton’s Cake […]
The Best of Both Worlds December 12, 2007; 10:28 pm

A friend of mine passed this little ditty to me with a simple email “I saw this… and thought of you.”

Experiments in deliciousness: Bacon chocolate chip cookies with maple cinnamon glaze.
This whole thing started the other night when my husband and I were having a conversation about what foods could and could not be made […]
#1 Favourite Cookie Batter: DUH! December 12, 2007; 12:35 am

The Chocolate Chip Cookie finds itself on the top of my list not because it’s highly addictive and delicious, but because with every lick of the beater, it takes me back to my childhood. My mother would bake her chocolate chip cookies, albeit not very often, and my sister and I would anticipate when she […]
#2 Favourite Cookie Batter: Cheesecake Cookies December 11, 2007; 10:34 pm

The way I find my recipes on the Internet, I think of a dessert combination and google for recipe hoping someone else out there has thought of it and then I try to see what I can do to make it better/different. In this case, it was cheesecake in cookie form and I didn’t alter […]
#3 Favourite Cookie Batter: Cinnamon Cookies December 9, 2007; 9:35 am

It truly surprised me the amount of restraint I didn’t use when preparing these cookies for the oven. There’s nothing like the aroma of cinnamon baking in the oven but I must admit I was in no hurry to put them there. Fun fact: it was this recipe that inspired me to think back to […]
#4 Favourite Cookie Batter: Shortbread December 9, 2007; 9:04 am

Kudos to the cookie that almost taste the same pre-oven! The only thing that separates this batter from its cookie counterpart is a slight crumbling when that buttery dough hits your mouth… ahem, where was I?
Ingredients:

1 cup butter
½ cup icing sugar
½ cup corn starch
1 ½ cup flour
½ tsp. vanilla

Chop butter into chunks then process with […]
#5 Favourite Cookie Batter: Macaroons December 8, 2007; 10:57 pm

What better way to solidify sweetened condensed milk so you can chew it than adding flaked coconut!

Ingredients:

7 2/3 cups flaked coconut (3 pkg at 7 oz. each)
1 cup all-purpose flour
½ tsp. salt
1 can (14 oz.) sweetened condensed milk
2/3 cup canned cream of coconut (not coconut milk)
1 tbsp. vanilla
¼ tsp. almond extract
1 egg
1 pkg. milk chocolate […]
My Top 5 Favourite Cookie Batters: Introduction December 8, 2007; 10:28 pm

There’s something somewhat sinful about eating cookie batter - like sneaking a peek at a Christmas present one day too soon. I try very hard not to eat too many of the things I baked (a sample bite here and there doesn’t hurt) and I almost NEVER taste-test the batter!
However, there are some cookies that […]
