What are you Baking today?

[SilverSage]

Thank you. I got the recipe from something Mama posted a few weeks ago, but I changed it up some.

For example, a tablespoon of cinnamon in the crust just sounded like too much for my taste. And a half teaspoon of freshly grated nutmeg would have overpowered the other flavors. But I did bump up the cinnamon in the filling to a teaspoon. I also cut the butter in the crust in half, and it came out real nice. Added a couple tablespoons of bourbon for complexity and a couple tablespoons of flour for structure. I reduced the vanilla in the topping from a tablespoon to a teaspoon. I changed up the cooking time a bit. 45 minutes at 325F, then another 45 minutes at 300F.

But other than that, I followed the recipe exactly!

I made thumbprint cookies. Lemon dusted with confectioners sugar. Raspberry and Blackberry drizzled with white chocolate.

 

[Mr. Green Jeans]

Love thumbprints!

 

[Mama]

Me too MGJ! The white chocolate really added to them!

 

[Mr. Green Jeans]

Not really baking but the Kitchenaid will get a workout mixing up the filling for buckeyes. The gang at work has never been exposed to them.

I made a chocolate cake-like cookie. Baked them fro about 8 minutes, made a slight indentation and added a teaspoon of raspberry jelly then topped with a half of a marshmallow. I returned them to the oven for another 2 minutes, cooled and drizzled with chocolate.

I'd love this recipe. Pretty please Mama.

I started with this recipe:http://www.marthastewart.com/356831...oliday-cookies-center/holiday-cookies-recipes

I baked them for 8 minutes, removed from the oven and topped each cookie with about 1/2 tsp. of raspberry jam before adding the 1/2 marshmallow and baking another 2 minutes. I then just drizzled them with chocolate instead of the frosting

Thank you Mama, I may use cherry preserves instead of the raspberry (family doesn't really like raspberries).
