Why didn't I fill mine...sob... Now I have to make them again.
Lovley photos! Glad you enjoyed the cookies.
TWD: Sugar Topped Molasses Spice Cookies with Spiced Cream Filling
You know those commercials with two people sitting around a table, racing to see which one eats the Oreo filling the fastest? That was me. And I was racing against myself. To eat all of the Oreo filling I could in one sitting. It was sad. Once, when I was studying abroad in London, I ate a...
Looks delicious! I love the colour of the mixed fruit.
Tuesdays with Dorie: Cran-Apple Crisp
Thanks to Em of The Repressed Pastry Chef for her Tuesdays with Dorie pick of Cran-Apple Crisp, found on pages 422 of Dorie Greenspan's Baking from My Home to Yours cookbook. We are big fans of anything "crisp" around here, apple crisp being our favorite, so I was eager to try this recipe s...
Your cookies look delicious! I'm glad they're a hit. I plan to bake them later today.

That's a great close up of the muffin! Thanks for choosing this delicious recipe!
Tuesdays with Dorie: Allspice Crumb Muffins
Well, the Big Day is finally here: I got to be the one to select the TWD recipe for the week! In case you haven't been the one to choose a recipe yet, let me just say there is a lot of pressure going into this honor. First, you have to actually select a recipe that has yet to be chosen out ...
You know, it doesn't look like anyone's pufflets actually browned. I wonder if it's the cheese in the dough. Love that last photo! Lesson learned.
TWD - Cottage Cheese Pufflets
To be honest, I was skeptical about these. I didn't know what to expect, and they sort of sounded more like little turnovers or something rather than cookies. And they still seem like that to me. But I don't care. They're delicious, addictive little treats, and the portion I baked this afte...
"no true appeciation of all the work" How true! I feel this every week. And yet the family tummies are full, so we carry on baking. Love your photos!
Tuesdays with Dorie: Cottage Cheese Pufflets
Thanks to Jacque of Daisy Lane Cakes for her Tuesdays with Dorie pick this week of Cottage Cheese Pufflets, found on pages 148-149 of Dorie Greenspan's Baking from My Home to Yours cookbook. Cottage Cheese Pufflets are little squares of pastry dough (with the addition of cottage cheese...
Great story, adorable turnovers and delicious too. Beautifully done!
TWD: Apple Turnover Lollipops
These are the most precious lollipops in the history of the world, and I'll tell you why. Because it took me three hours to get them. Three hours. To get lollipop sticks. I'll explain. I saw this on Bakerella a few weeks back, so when Julie of Someone's in the Kitchen made the choice for Flaky...
It's always nice to see a photo of someone enjoying the dessert. Well done!
Tuesdays with Dorie: Flaky Apple Turnovers
Thanks to Julie of Someone's in the Kitchen for her Tuesdays with Dorie pick this week of Flaky Apple Turnovers, found on pages 316-317 of Dorie Greenspan's Baking from My Home to Yours cookbook. Julie and I comment back and forth each week on each other's blogs, so it is nice to get to b...
That icing looks inviting. I wish I hadn't been too lazy to try it. Maybe twittering would have encouraged me.
Lovley photos!
MSC: Zucchini-Spice Cupcakes
It's time for another cupcake adventure this month from the Martha Stewart's Cupcakes book. This month's pick went to a good internet blogging Twitter buddy, Tracey of Tracey's Culinary Adventures, who chose the Zucchini-Spice Cupcakes, found on page 44. Not only did Tracey chose the...
I love the idea of having a smaller pie plate around. There can be such a thin as to much pie, but maybe not in this case. Glad you enjoyed!
Tuesdays with Dorie: Creamiest Lime Cream Meringue Pie
Thanks to Linda of Tender Crumb for her Tuesdays with Dorie pick this week of Creamiest Lime Cream Meringue Pie, found on pages 337-339 of Dorie Greenspan's Baking from My Home to Yours cookbook. Oh, yeah...this was heavenly! We had the choice of crusts, the guys voting for the graham...
Those cupcakes look perfect! We enjoyed them. I know yours will be a hit.
MSC: Chocolate Salted Caramel Cupcakes (One Sentence Blogging Week)
It's another adventure...this time Betty of Eat My Cupcake decided she would bake her way through the Martha Stewart's Cupcakes book, wanted some company, so she put out a little feeler and I figured cupcakes would be a good thing to learn how to do well as there are ample opportunities for ...
The bad girl in me just wants to run my finger around the edge of that plate through all the icing. Looks so good!
TWD: Banana Bundt Cake with Hot Buttered Rum Icing
This will be the shortest post in the history of Spork or Foon?. I am sure you are all thanking the gods right now. This bundt cake was good. I was not doing backflips over it, but the people at work were. The cake was finished in 1 day, between 4 people. That's a good sign. Someone at work...
If you hadn't posted the un-iced photo, I would have thought this the perfect cake. Instead it's the perfect save! Glad your cake found a home.

Cinnamon Toast Ice Cream? Sounds divine!
Not meaning to fan the flames but here in Toronto there's a gelato store that makes pistachio gelato and it's to die for.
TWD: Coffee and a Donut Breakfast Ice Cream
Recently, Jack and I got into a serious argument. He stated that Pistachio pudding is the best dessert on the face of the Earth. I told him that he was crazy, asking how he could like some thin, electric-green powdered box-dessert when he can have a cool and creamy, freshly churned ice cre...
Lemon sprinkles - sounds lovely. I like your classic sundae dish. Glad you enjoyed!

Lovely photos! Now I'm craving fresh figs. My blanc-manger turned into ice cream, a dessert I always look forward to.
TWD: Raspberry Blanc Manger (THE BLESSING!)
You may be asking yourself, "What is a Blanc Manger". Well, dear readers, Dorie describes a Blanc Manger (pronounced blah-mahn-jay) as panna cotta's kissing cousin. Let me give you a little history about me and Panna Cotta, shall we? We used to never get along. When presented with the ...
Lovely! I'm glad your family enjoyed. Mine fell to goo and I'm hoping to save it by making ice cream.

Isn't the colour in that fruit beautiful! You've made a peasant breakfast look delicate and sublime. Well done!
TWD: Brioche Plum Tart
Once again, I woke up at 5 am to complete my TWD post. TWD should stand for Teanna Waits ('til) Dawn (to complete her TWD assignments). But lo and behold, here is my tart. I made a few changes, but not many. First, I didn't include the walnuts or the jam. Second, I shaped the brioche ...
Brownies and ice cream - yum! I also love that chewy texture after 50 minutes. Well done!

Delicious addition! I love mint patties and am going to have to try your recipe. Lovely!
TWD: A Tribute to Katharine Hepburn Brownies
I know what you are thinking. Those don't look like Dorie's Tribute to Katharine Hepburn Brownies, chosen by our logo contest winner Lisa of Surviving Oz (click for the recipe). I guess that must make these my Tribute to Katharine Hepburn Brownies. There are many adaptations of Katha...
Outstanding version! It's a work of art. Thanks for showing us how it's done. Brava!
TWD: Perfect Party Cake + 8
Actually, it is Perfect Party Cake + 9, but this was just too easy. And really, it should have been Perfect Party Cake + 12, but I didn't have enough batter (and I made a double batch of batter). And after that failed, it was supposed to be Perfect Party Cake + 10, but I ate half a layer beca...
Looks delicious. I wish I had a piece now. Beautifully done!
