Our friend Mike is from New Mexico. He thought this would be a good cookie to add to the girls’ baking portfolio. They are super easy to make and great with tea.
Biscochitos
Biscotti
I was looking for a good biscotti recipe and my friend, Cheri, had the perfect one for me. This is super easy to make with many variations. The cookies store well for a few weeks too.
If desired, these cookies are firm enough to dunk in chocolate.
Lady Fingers-Gluten Free
Andrea commented that she really wanted tiramisu for dessert. We looked in three stores before finding lady finger cookies. We did not find gluten free ones at all. So we decided to try to make our own.
The recipe we tried was very easy. The cookies crisped up and are wonderful for dunking in hot drinks or just eating plain.
Lemon Bars
My girl friend Heather and I would often make these at her house. We almost always doubled the crust and would eat one batch of it as the second batch baked.
Now Adrian loves lemon desserts and this is one of his favorites.
Great Grandma’s Pizzelles
Grandma Bea would make pizzelles and store them in tin coffee containers. After she died, my parents bought a pizzelle maker and passed the recipe on to Andrea.
