Tuesdays with Dorie Dorie’s Cookies These nuggets are packed with lemon flavor: lemon juice, lemon rind and lemon extract. When I took them out of the oven my son declared that it smelled like lemon. I served these Bee’s Sneeze Nuggets with the suggested honey accompaniment and with Limoncello Gin Cocktails. These were a big…

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…
Sebastian’s Remarkably Wonderful Brownies
Tuesdays with Dorie Dorie’s Cookies I knew these brownies would be a hit in my house because there were no “funny” ingredients added. My family are purest and do not like any nuts or add-ins in their brownies. And of course there is only one way to eat a brownie… Sebastian’s Remarkably Wonderful Brownies page…
Orange Almond Tart
Tuesdays with Dorie Around My French Table This tart seemed well received by my fellow bakers and bloggers from the now completed French Fridays with Dorie. I joined the group year 3 of 4 so I missed most of the dessert recipes. With an extra Tuesday this month I embarked on completing one of my unfinished recipes. …
Crunchy Granola
Tuesdays with Dorie Baking Chez Moi My second turn at making granola this month and this time I was more successful. Dorie’s detailed and easy to follow recipe made for a great batch of granola. The key for me was adding the sweetened coconut at the end of baking, I added it at the last…
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…
Real Hot Chocolate
Tuesdays with Dorie Baking Chez Moi I make hot chocolate all the time, usually for my son, but I make it with nonfat milk and cocoa powder. Dorie’s version with whole milk and melted bittersweet chocolate was really a treat. This rich chocolaty hot beverage was a welcome drink on a rare cool night in…
Cabin-Fever Caramel Banana Bars
Tis the season… for coughing, sniffing and sneezing. I had been shut-up in the house since before Christmas with a cold and then I managed to give it to my husband for New Year’s. Aren’t I nice? These Cabin-Fever Caramel Banana Bars were a welcome treat. Cabin-Fever Caramel Banana Bars page 65. To see what others…
Chocolate Truffles
Chocolate is my favorite flavor and I have never met a truffle that I didn’t like. Ina’s chocolate truffles were easy to execute and delicious to eat. 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…
