Tuesdays with Dorie Dorie’s Cookies These bar cookies are a Southern take on buttermilk pies. I have never had a buttermilk pie so this was a new dessert for me and my family. The crust is baked first with flour, sugar, cornmeal, cornstarch, salt and butter. The topping as Dorie calls it is custard-like and…

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…
Chocolate-Cornflake Haystacks
Baking this week from Dorie’s Cookies are these baked version of haystacks. I have made no-bake version before but not cooked. These haystacks include eggs, agave nectar, salt, sweetened coconut, pecans, raisins, cornflakes and milk chocolate. These turned out a bit crunchy and chewy. I am treating my co-workers to these haystacks this week. I…
Lemon Sugar Cookies
Tuesdays with Dorie I am so thankful that Katje Sabin shared this recipe with Dorie. My family and I decided this was the best sugar cookie. These were bursting with lemon flavor with the addition of lemon zest and lemon juice. I have a one teaspoon cookie scoop which allowed me to make the full…
Anzac Biscuits
Anzac biscuit? What? This is a cookie I have not heard of before. Per Dorie, “Anzac is an acronym for Australia and New Zealand Army Corps, which was created during World War I, and because of its antipodal origins, it’s known as a biscuit rather than a cookie”. I also read our very own food…
Salted Chocolate Caramel Bars
Tuesdays with Dorie These bars are a layer of chocolate shortbread, chocolate caramel and pecans as the topping. I served these with ice cream the first night and I think it was too much. I was craving brownies and ice cream but shortbread is not brownies. These were more candy-like, so small portion is the…
"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…
Rose-Hibiscus Shortbread Fans
I actually made Hibiscus Shortbread Fans. I have not had any luck finding rose products so I just decided to leave it out. I don’t think I have made shortbread before so this was a new adventure for me. I must have mixed my dough incorrectly as I had trouble getting it into the pan…
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…
