TWD: Dulce de Leche Duos

Ok, so we were supposed to make these, maybe a month ago? I wanted to, but life got in the way. And while I was busy with non-baking essentials, I also went through a grocery store funk. One of those, "ok-I-know-that-there-is-something-I-can-make-into-dinner-here-so-that-I-can-avoid-the-grocery-store-for-at-least-one-more-day" funks. It lasted until we had finished every single frozen fruit and vegetable in the freezer. We also ran out of flour. So then I remembered to buy the sweetened condensed milk.

These cookies were great. I shared them, and ate them. And didn't photograph them.

TWD: Soft Chocolate Tart with Raspberries

It wasn't as soft as Dorie intended. And I used home-frozen raspberries. It was a perfect, although perhaps less traditional way to celebrate Pi Day.

TWD: Thumbprints for us big guys

These lived up to their name.
The little kids threw them in the trash after one bite.
Everyone over 10 thought they were wonderful.
I'll vote with the "over 10" crowd, although I'll admit that I came down with the stomach flu after making them am still working past tea and toast.
Fortunately, my cookies, filled with brandy spiked chocolate ganache, didn't seem to make anyone sick.
