Coffee is a beloved drink in our house. We have three coffee makers: drip, French Press and espresso. My husband buys whole beans and we have our own grinder. We love our coffee. I knew these cookies would be a hit. What I didn’t know was finding unflavored malted milk would be so tough. It…

Goat Cheese and Chive Cookies
I am a fan of goat cheese, the more the better. When this recipe was chosen I was looking forward to trying them. This recipe was selected near Mother’s Day and I had already set my menu, goat cheese tart. I thought goat cheese cookies and goat cheese tart was too much goat cheese for…
"Corked" Breton Galettes
Tuesdays with Dorie I voted for this cookie as I knew my jam loving, sweet husband would enjoy them. Galettes are a plain butter cookie. My first batch I baked the recommended time of 18 minutes and I think I over baked them. I used a wooden dowel about the size of a cork and…
Valentine’s Day Share-A-Heart
Dorie suggests making two large hearts from this recipe but since I was not having a party and feared my son would eat the whole thing, I made several smaller hearts. I used a three to three and a half inch cookie cutter and got a total of 20 hearts. I really liked the instructions…
Dorie’s Cookies
This is a catch-up week for me in which I have combined three baking assignments into one. I encountered bakers burn-out just before Christmas so I have missed the last couple of posts but I am up and running now with burners full blaze. First up Olive Oil and Wine cookies from Baking Chez Moi…
Christmas Spice Cookies
These Christmas Spice Cookies were a delicious addition to the holiday baking season. Dorie’s flavors are always on point and this recipe was no exception. Everyone enjoyed them. I had a lot of trouble with the dough. I chilled for 3 plus hours, the dough was firm when I took it out but while I…
Peanut Butter Change Ups
This week on Tuesdays with Dorie we are baking from Dorie’s Cookies. I chose the Peanut Butter Change-Ups as one of two recipes to choose from. My husband and I love peanut butter but sadly my son is allergic so I don’t cook with peanut products much. These cookies deviate from the standard in that they…
Edouard’s Chocolate Chip Cookies
The latest recipe from Baking Chez Moi were these devilishly delicious chocolate chip cookies. It really is hard to eat just one. These cookies are worth the 2 hour chill time required before baking. The addition of almond flour is the unique ingredient that makes them oh so scrumptious. I recommend you make Edouard’s Chocolate Chip…
Cocoa Crunch Meringue Cookies
This week on Tuesdays with Dorie I made Cocoa Crunch Meringue Cookies from Baking Chez Moi on page 293. This is my first attempt at a meringue type cookie and I was a bit nervous to get it right. My fellow bakers who had already made these commented that they had trouble getting the total recipe…
Oatmeal Coconut Butter Cookies
It has been a long time since I have had an epic baking failure so I guess I was do. I made these oatmeal coconut butter cookies from Curtis Stone’s What’s For Dinner. My first batch cooked up as one big cookie, talk about spread. I think there were several factors to this cookie’s failure….
