The Tuesdays with Dorie group made macarons two years ago from Baking Chez Moi. This recipe was a complete success for me and I looked forward to making them again. True to my statement I wanted to make these again and try a different filling. In reading the recipe in Dorie’s Cookies I noticed Mardi…

Mochaccino Muffins
Coffee, coffee, coffee. Buzz, buzz, buzz. They don’t call me CafeMom for nothing, I love me a good cup of Joe. Combining my two favorite foods chocolate and coffee this recipe has cocoa powder, ground coffee, coffee extract and semisweet chocolate. The ingredients need to come to room temperature before baking so planning ahead is…
French Riviera Lemon Tart
It is good to be in the Riviera! I have been baking tarts à la Dorie for decades now and I thought I had made them all but this lemon tart is very different from all the rest. Starting with the crust I have not made one with olive oil before. Dorie’s sweet tart dough…
Almond Crackle Cookies
This week on Tuesdays with Dorie we are baking from Dorie’s Cookies. These Almond Crackle Cookies are simple to put together as they have only three ingredients; almond, sugar and egg. After reading the reviews of my fellow bakers I decided to do the muffin pan route to prevent the spread from free form but…
Cottage Cheese Biscuits
Who doesn’t love a good biscuit and these were good. It has been a long time since I have had biscuits so this was a nice treat. I made mine about 2 1/2 inches and we each had 2 with our meal. I am traveling this week for business, I managed to knock these out…
Espresso Chocolate Sablés
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…
