Coffee. Chocolate. Cookie. Yes Please! All of my favorite ingredients in one cookie, what’s not to like? We have made plenty sables together as a group; both little and big. I don’t think I could pick a favorite but those with chocolate rise to the top. To see what others thought head over to Tuesdays…

Leckerli
I was fortunate enough that my mother-in-law brought over a bag of oranges before I needed to make these Leckerli. Making candied orange peels was a bit of a process but not hard to do, I made 2/3 of a recipe and still had some leftover. This is a plan-ahead cookie, it needs to sit…
Glenorchy Flapjacks
Dorie describes these as “your favorite chewy oatmeal cookie or the energy bar of your dreams”. My mother-in-law saw the picture of these and thought they looked delicious so of course I made them for her when she came for dinner. I was lucky that I had all the ingredients for this one including the…
Swirled, Spiced Sour Cream Bundt Cake
We have not had cake in a while so this was a nice treat and I can’t remember the last time I made a bundt cake. For the swirl, I omitted the nuts so my son could eat it, I used chopped chocolate the dark kind and my unsweetened cocoa was also dark chocolate. The…
Swedish Dream Cookies
I bake on time but I cannot seem to post on time, sigh… This week’s baking assignment for Tuesdays with Dorie are these Swedish Dream Cookies, a shortbread cookie flavored with brown butter and cardamom. I grew up eating kringle, a Norwegian cookie flavored with cardamom. This recipe is very different from the usual cookie…
Whip-It-Up-Quick Cornbread
I was happy when this cornbread was chosen for our next recipe in Baking with Dorie as I have a large bag of cornmeal to use up. This was pretty easy to whip up as the name implies. I chose corn, scallions and parsley as my add ins and of course topped with cheese. My…
Mary’s Maine Bars
Mary’s Maine Bars was the perfect recipe for me to make this week on Tuesdays with Dorie. I had travelled for work so I was short on time and energy but I had all the ingredients to make this bar. My one wrinkle was I had only one half cup of molasses, I did not…
Steph’s Bakewell Tart
Wow was this good. I have never had a Bakewell Tart before and I am so happy that Steph shared her recipe with Dorie. I think this is a mash-up of a dessert; tart shell, jam and cake on top. A bonus of this dessert is that it is made with almond flour which I…
Portofignos
Portofignos are a fruit and nut version of Dorie’s World Peace Cookie. The recipe calls for walnuts but I substituted for pecans and I had to substitute the port red wine for Sirah as that is what I had. I actually didn’t taste any of the wine in the baked cookie but no matter these…
Grain and Seed Muffins
These Grain and Seed Muffins went with me to work, I shared them with a meeting after the New Year. I guess my co-workers were not into healthy or they were still full from the holidays as only half disappeared. My husband and I enjoyed the rest. These wheat bran muffins are a bit on…
