lace cookies
i have a few bags
with peanut butter cookies (four in each). In the freezer. In the basement. To make them more difficult to eat. 😆 But want to make lace cookies. Yes, lace. Presume they have another name or names, but that is how I know them. And they are soooo good. I am not a dessert person,
prefer salty and tangy to sweet,
but the sweets I do like I love. =) Lace cookies are thin and crunchy and super-sweet, very unlike my favorite cookie of all — the peanut butter (no chocolate, please!). And I don’t even like peanut butter. Have to be naked + afraid to eat it. I could buy raisin oatmeal cookies if there’s nothing else and I feel like a sweet thing.
oh, and madeleines de commercy!
Have not made those in a while. Today is a coolish June day, and baking is not out of the question. Yesterday was, too. My husband made 00 flour pizza last night (first with that flour + first with his new Father’s Day pizza steel). It was scrumptious, the flavor markedly different, which surprised me. Anyhow, later 🖐🏼: going to place the ingredients on the counter so that I do
bake the whispy things
- flour
- baking powder
- sugar
- rolled oats
- orange zest optional (NO)
- pecans (walnuts/almonds Ok too)
- heavy cream (I use ½ + ½)
- butter, melted
- light corn syrup
- the best part of making the cookies (besides eating them) is setting them out to cool + dry
