Them some good looking springerle! One of my fav cookies. This is the first year in I don't know how long that my mom hasn't made any since she was visiting my sister in Sweden. The holidays feel weird without homemade stollen, lebkuchen, pfeffernüsse, springerle, or even a fruitcake. Guess I'll have to make them myself to at least keep the tradition alive when she's no longer with us. Prob the hardest thing to find would be baker's ammonia for springerle.

All of mine came from said lab manager bringing it back for me from Germany (along with the cookie mold). Looks like you can get it on amazon though.

Hi all! My wife's brother is getting married in a few months and we are expected to take part in the great Pittsburgh tradition, the Cooke Table. We live in Miami and want to make cookies that are representative of the area. We are going to try a few different recipes and ideas before hand, but could use some help. The first cookie is going to use guava or guava paste somehow, basically a cookie version of a pastelito. The second we are thinking of doing a basic sugar cookie, but with a passion fruit or mango (or combo of both!) icing/glaze. Any one have any recommendations for recipes (especially the first one), or other ideas or suggestions. I am a novice baker, and my wife mostly bakes breads and pastries but are open to challenging recipes since we have some time to try things out.

Guava pastelito cookie and a key lime cookie is the one-two punch.

I made Earl Grey Apricot Hamentaschen from Claire Saffitz's Dessert Person book and they were real good. That tray did anyway, the other tray I had rolled the dough out slightly thicker and they mostly popped open during baking. Still tasted great though. If I make them again I'll be sure to keep the dough thinner and I'll probably add an extra tea bag or two when making the filling because the earl grey flavour is pretty subtle. The dough is really tasty, with the cream cheese and citrus zest in it adding some nice tanginess, they come out soft but not doughy after baking and have a kind of buttery shortbready taste but much much lighter and softer texture. Highly recommended.

I made Semlor, traditional to make them this time of year both in Sweden and Finland: The scooped out innards are mixed with melted butter, chopped almonds, sugar and eggs and cooked on low heat, then returned back to the buns: Then spritz some whipped cream and put the lid back on There's even a video in english about it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Ljm5i5N6WQ

I'm in a mood, so over the last two days I made bread, brownies, sesame cookies, ginger biscuits, english muffins, and I hosed up simple sugar biscuits because apparently they're the one thing I can't make. I might try shortbead tomorrow. I have some butter, brown sugar, regular sugar, dark chocolate, and chocolate chips, but no eggs left. I guess I have some tins of chickpeas? Give me your favourite recipies for biscuits to shove in a box or in the freezer! Not a sweet, but they came out so good!

Our twin boys turned 10 this week so we had one kids party and last night a party for relatives and friends at our house. SO made some cakes and pies. The black & blueberries are from our own yard and some of the hidden filling in the cream cake as well is blueberry based.

I have a very old cookie recipe that my mom made a lot when I was little. It has 1/2 teaspoon baking soda and 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar. I can probably just use 1 teaspoon double-action baking powder instead, right? There's no other obvious source of acid/base I can see. Just sugar, flour ,egg, salt, fat, vanilla. Based strictly on normal substitutions for baking powder as 2:1 tartar and soda, it's almost like 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar and 1/4 teaspoon of the baking soda would become 3/4 teaspoon baking powder, plus 1/4 teaspoon baking soda still remaining? Or is that excessively pedantic. Since the cookies have no brown sugar only white, I can't imagine what the extra baking soda is supposed to be reacting with.

I would go find some cream of tartar if I were trying to reproduce mom's cookies. You can get a decent sugar cookie without it, but it probably won't taste the same.

I'm totally open to that, it's not like a thing of cream of tartar is expensive, I just figured the recipe might use the combo instead of baking powder. But if the cream of tartar was supposed to have remaining acid flavor, wouldn't you need less baking soda? If I'm understanding the proportions right, 2:1 tartar:soda is balanced, so even quantities would totally neutralize all the acid, no?

It would neutralize it as an acid, but you'd still have a tartrate salt. (I'm kinda guessing here though, I'm not a cookie chemist...)

I’m looking to make chocolate and orange cupcakes on friday and I was going to modify the SBA chocolate cupcake recipe by adding some orange zest and juice to the batter and using whole milk instead of the buttermilk to keep the acidity in check. Is that reasonable or am I missing something? Does one orange sound right? If they come out good I’ll post some pictures. If not, I might still post pictures for posterity.

They probably won't rise all that much without buttermilk. I'd honestly just go with zest and add orange extract to get the orange flavor. Orange juice will likely get overpowered by the chocolate. You could do juice and add a bit more flour to compensate for the extra liquid and see how it tastes and add some extract of needed and they'll probably turn out fine. Edit: Orange juice is also pretty sweet, I'd consider dialing back the amount of regular sugar just a bit to offset that if you go that route. Also that seems like a shitload of sugar to begin with for a cupcake recipe relative to the amount of flour and other ingredients. Now I'm intrigued and wanna give chocolate orange cake a go. dog nougat fucked around with this message at 03:33 on Oct 12, 2023 |

I appreciate this, but you don’t have any advice here for my very recent problem: my oven is broken and almost guaranteed needs to be replaced. The cupcakes will have to wait!

Yo it's christmas! What's everyone baking? https://thegreatbritishbakeoff.co.uk/recipes/all/shortbread-biscuits/ I doubled this and added the contents of an earl grey teabag to the mix, and it makes very nice shortbread. Although they did melt a bit in the oven, I don't know how to solve that. Google says: Chill the dough for a half hour after cutting and before putting in the oven, and don't cream the butter and sugar together, just mix it and don't get too much air in there. Will try that next time. https://www.sweetestmenu.com/lemon-blueberry-muffins/ I doubled the blueberries and cut the sugar down to 110g and these were very good. Gave them as a last-minute Christmas gift and I think they went down well. Smelt a bit like toilet cleaner when I first opened the oven, due to the high lemon juice content, but tasted fantastic. https://www.mygreekdish.com/recipe/melomakarona-greek-christmas-honey-cookies/ Tempted to make these for christmas day, but they need a few ingredients I don't have.

Banana cream pie, chocolate mousse pie, and orange white chocolate cookies. The cookies are from the back of the package of Ghirardelli white chocolate cookies (minus the macadamia nuts yuck), with an extra 1 tsp of vanilla, 2 tsp of orange extract, and an orange worth of zest. I find when I cook them in my lighter color cookie sheets they take for freaking ever in the oven, like 18 minutes. But on my dark cookie sheets they take 13. I know there's a difference between the two, of course, but it threw me off how stark that difference was when I had to use one of each sheet at the same time! Chaos!

https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/chocolate-almond-marbled-bundt-cake Today we're eating this for breakfast, because christmas is cancelled. I forgot the chocolate side of things, so it's just almond, I put orange zest in instead of almond extract and I put some brown sugar and flaked almonds on the top, and it's pretty great. A tiny bit dry but good with tea. I tried chilling the biscuits in the fridge thing and not overworking the buttersugar mix and they came out much better. I did have to add water to get them to be anything other than a pile of dust, though. Nettle Soup fucked around with this message at 19:46 on Dec 25, 2023 |

It's the one time a year I make gingerbread! That's not regularly enough to get good at it, but also frequently enough to not suck rear end at it anymore. Right down the middle, maybe towards the shittier end.

Made some spritz cookies from here: https://preppykitchen.com/spritz-cookies/. I don't have a press so this is with a piping bag. I think they look great, but it's kinda tough to get them squeezed out. It went smoothly once the dough heated up from my hands.

I am looking for a good thumbprint cookie recipe, but I have some expectations: 1. I am looking for fruits and nuts. 2. Last time I did this, I remember having egg whites at hand to help bind the nuts to the cookies. 3. I also remember indenting the cookies partway into the bake, which I think gave me a butter bowl for the jam. SEO food blog recipes are making it real hard to look up this stuff.

Made a chocolate cheesecake over the weekend. My springform pan betrayed me at every turn...first, it was 10" when I thought it was 9". Then, when I put it into a water bath...it was not watertight! loving water leaked in on my crust and I had to bake without the bath. Finally, it didn't want to release the god drat cake after chilling overnight. What a pain in the rear end. As for the cake...it cracked super, super bad -- we're talking San Andreas here, the cracks went all the way down to the pan. So I doubled up on the ganache topping and filled those cracks in; the perfect crime. The whipped cream on top looks like coiled poop, but it was very tasty. I was happy with how this one came out--super rich, and super chocolatey. But, first time using a recipe = follow to the letter, second time = what iterations can you make. The cheesecake consisted of an oreo crust, chocolate cheesecake filling (bittersweet and semisweet chocolate), topped with a semisweet ganache and finally cocoa whipped cream. I'm thinking the following: Is there a place to sneak in some caramel? Maybe the ganache? Might not be a good idea, the rest of the cake was so overwhelmingly chocolate that I'm not sure if caramel could add much to it The cocoa whipped cream was delicious, but for aesthetic reasons I might try a plain white whipped cream...I think the white contrast with the rest of the cheesecake would be interesting Maybe switch out the oreo crust for a standard graham cracker one, give it more of a honey profile

could do like a cinnamon whipped cream; that might be a nice flavor profile. Or a raspberry topping.
