Okay, if you tried the Bibik recipe, you will be left with a large amount of egg whites. There are a ton of things you can do with egg whites so don't fret! Here are a couple of meringue style cookies that are delicious - Coconut Meringue and Chocolate Meringue. Both similar, but my favorite [...]
Well, I can finally say I did it! Is it perfect? Well of course not, but I'm pleased with it! It is referred to as the Queen of Goan sweets. I'm speaking of course, of Bebinca (also called bibik). A long story follows, it tells of my first encounter learning to make bibik with [...]
You know how I always say "you gotta make these...", well, you gotta make these gluten free Teff and Oatmeal cookies with stuff! There was a lot of stuff, too many to list on a title anyway, that I added into the cookie - white chocolate, cranberry and walnuts. This is a cookie not just for [...]
Oh it's getting close to the end of the posts, not necessarily the baking, just the posting! So I haven't really done a new version of Spicy Cheese straws or crackers, so this is it. It uses a secret ingredient to add a bit of a crunch to the cookie/cracker. Of course it's spicy but [...]
When I was growing up, we knew the Christmas Season was upon us because mum would start making her Christmas sweets. She would usually start at the end of November with her fruitcake (recipe on the site) and then follow up with neuries (like a sweet stuffed empanada but deep fried - yum), nankhatais, kulkuls [...]
This Shortbread has a lovely slightly crispy exterior and a melt in your mouth interior. The key to achieving this is really the weighing of the three main ingredients - butter, sugar and flour, and proper baking time. This cookie was inspired by the Apple TV show Ted Lasso. If you haven't seen it yet, [...]
I'm still obsessing over the Chocolate Orange cookie in the last post. Lots of steps, but I do hope you try making them. So to make up for that, here is - for all of you non-baker cookie-lover types out there, a showstopper Christmas treat that you can actually make all year round. Everyone is [...]
When I saw this cookie in my daily recipe search, I absolutely loved the look of it. I debated long and hard "should I attempt it or not?". Not because it was hard to make, it's the decoration of the cookie. Anyone who know me, knows fiddly little things are not my cup of tea. [...]
Oh this is so worth the effort! Quite simply this is Cantucci or Almond Biscotti. I know, you've made biscotti before. But this recipe has an ingredient which I've never had in biscotti. The finished cookies had a great taste and I thought this would make an ideal addition to the Christmas table. This is [...]
This is a lovely cookie that is good at anytime, but especially good now. Cranberries evoke memories of celebrations, good food and of course - desserts! I picked this as another of the treats. It is probably one you might have made a variation off in the past, but I liked how it came together, how [...]
