Tuesdays with Dorie Dorie’s Cookies My Mocha-Ricotta Puffs are darker than Dorie’s since I used dark chocolate cocoa powder. These are a wonderful mocha cookie, I noticed the chocolate and coffee but not the ricotta. They turned out as Dorie described crunchy around the edges and soft centers. I ended up cooking mine less time…

Matzo Morsels
The first night of Passover we were invited by friends to attend their family seder dinner. I made Dorie’s Matzo Morsels for one of the dessert selections. This is the Jewish version of haystacks. Bittersweet chocolate is melted with butter, add crushed matzo, stir until all coated then add dried fruit in my case raisins…
Chocolate Creme Caramel
Tuesdays with Dorie Baking Chez Moi Chocolate Creme Caramel started our Valentine’s week off right. Made with few ingredients to dramatic effect. I had eight inch round ramekins so I ended up with flat creme caramels. I used milk chocolate because that is what I had available. I made one mistake, I forgot to press…
Chunkers
Tuesdays with Dorie Dorie’s Cookies Chunkers are sinfully delicious chocolate cookies with cashews, dried cherries and more chocolate. These cookies are a labor of love due to the amount of chopping for all ingredients. The Trader Joe’s bars of chocolate that I buy are thick and create quite a workout for chopping. The cookies are…
Cabin-Fever Caramel Banana Bars

Ina uses a combination of bittersweet and semisweet chocolate. I substituted my trusty Trader Joe’s dark chocolate which I believe is 60-70% cocoa. Along with heavy cream the…
Cocoa Linzer Cookies
Tuesdays with Dorie Baking Chez Moi This is the second linzer cookie I have made recently. I think rolled and filled cookies are the essence of the holiday season. I let my husband choose the filling. Dorie had chocolate or jam options. We went with traditional raspberry filling. These cookies have the makings of everything…
Kerrin’s Multigrain Chocolate Chip Cookies
Tuesdays with Dorie Dorie’s Cookies These multigrain chocolate chip cookies were a big hit even without the secret ingredient kasha. I was unable to obtain the correct brand and size that Dorie recommended so I just left it out. The substitution is finely chopped toasted nuts but I wanted my son to be able to…
Two-Bite One-Chip Cookies
Tuesdays with Dorie Dorie’s Cookies These Two-Bite One-Chip Cookies were a big hit in my house. The dough is wonderful with some whole wheat flour and a little cinnamon. Dorie suggests chilling the dough for 2 hours before scooping. I found the chilled dough easy to work with. I have a one teaspoon cookie scoop so…
Potato Chip-Chocolate Chunk Cookies
These sweet and salty cookies from the Food Network were a big hit in my house. My son loves potato chips and this recipe has a whopping 8 ounce bag. I made a few changes to ingredients to what I had on hand. Instead of semisweet chocolate chopped I used chocolate chips. I don’t like…
