Cookie Kick

I have been on a cookie baking kick lately. Even though the holidays are over, I still want to keep baking cookies. This book is WONDERFUL. It is Gourmet's best recipes spanning from the year 1941-2009, and packed with delicious cookies! I bought it new on Amazon, and it arrived in no time.


These are the latest cookies I'm working on, Polish Apricot-Filled Cookies. What the hell, it has been snowing for 2 days, what else am I going to do? I go from oven to computer, and vise-verse.


And this book, I fell in love with the name alone! I saw this on Ina's blog and immediately had to have it! It also looks like it is pack with delicious, vintage recipes. I have a fetish for cookbooks, I must have at least 75-100. I guess you could say that I am a cookbook hoarder! I bought this here, used. I can't wait to read it.

Hope all is well with you all, and have a delicious weekend!
XOXO

  5. Okay, so you're one of those GOOD cooks who actually make the fancy recipes. Me...I just look, dream and then bake some old standby. Hmmm...maybe this can be a new resolution. And the other book sounds hysterical...I'm off to check it out online right now.
    XOXO

  6. Well, how did they turn out? I love reading cookbooks, don't you? I made sugar cookies all weekend for samples to give to a store. We'll see how they fair. I wish I baked bread better. I think I'm too impatient with the kneading process and if I knead it my machine I still don't know if I've done it enough. I bet you've mastered that skill. What are you making for dinner with all the snow? :) xoxo
