Okay, DU kitchen masters: Favorite references for holiday cookies? |
|
Edited on Mon Dec-12-05 04:03 AM by BlueIris
I want to make some goooood cookies, and using my mother's ancient copies of "Laurel's Kitchen" and a 1930 copy of "The Joy of Cooking" isn't helping a kitchen-challenged individual like me. What I'm looking for are recipies for tasty cookies, more chewy and brownie-like than hard, thin, ginger-snap-like. Money is no object when it comes to ingredients and I can (and prefer) to make things from scratch as long as the recipie is relatively simple. Advice?

3. Does anyone have any advice for keeping the cookies more moist? |
|
Is it possible to do that?

2. Coconut Raspberry Squares! |
|
I recipe of cookie base, such as for lemon squares (1 stick butter, 1 cup flour, 1/4 powdered sugar for 9x9 pan), baked
Enough seedless red raspberry jam to cover the cookie base
Shredded, sweetened coconut over the jam
2 or 3 egg whites and sugar beaten till they form stiff peaks spread on top and baked until the peaks are golden brown.
Delicious!
