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…

Spiced Honey Cake
Tis the season…for sniffling, sneezing, coughing, you get the picture. I am behind in my baking due to seasonal colds. My husband found my Baking Chez Moi cookbook open and asked honey cake today? Sadly this went on for a week but I am now back on my feet ready to bake. This cake is…
Apple Speculoos Crumble
Apple Speculoos Crumble from Baking Chez Moi by Dorie Greenspan One of the things I like best about being a part of a baking group is not having to decide what to make for my next holiday meal. This apple speculoos crumble was a great accompaniment to the pumpkin pie that was served at our Thanksgiving…
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…
Caramel Tart
I hosted my first Friendsgiving of the season, a term I am just now becoming acquainted with, this past weekend. Thanksgiving is by far my favorite holiday. It is the holiday I host for my family and I love all the food. Every year I host what I called a Pre-Thanksgiving for friends that I…
Chocolate Sandwich Cookies
Tuesdays with Dorie is starting a new book, Dorie’s Cookies, which was just released October 25th. I actually have a copy of the book but not at my house. My sister pre-ordered the book for me way back in April and it delivered to her house instead of mine. My sister lives 50 miles from…
Pear Tart with Crunchy Almond Topping
This week for Tuesdays with Dorie I made Pear Tart with Crunchy Almond Topping. I choose three different kinds of pears for my tart. Dorie did not specifically say to do this but since many of her apple recipes call for using different kinds I figure this would be Dorie approved for pears. As many…
Custardy Apple Squares
One of our two baking assignments this month for Tuesdays with Dorie are these Custardy Apple Squares. I decided to make these first as part of our Rosh Hashanah dinner. This simple cake came together quickly. I used my food processor to thinly slice three apples as I did not have a mandoline. The ingredients include…
Apple Tarte Flambee
Tarte flambee is like a pizza built on a thin base of bread dough and topped with a mixture of cream cheese, plain Greek yogurt, heavy cream, sugar and sliced apples. When I read through the directions for this recipe, it had my husband’s name written all over it. We have a pizza stone and…
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…
