How nice! Made the dough yesterday, put it in the fridge overnight. Made filling today, substituting feta for goat cheese, and made them a bit heftier in size. With my lack of skills and proper ingredients they still yummy and pretty. Four rather big ones and four folded-over half circles, just because I like to see “what if.”
Carrie of Loaves and Stitches has the recipe.
It was like discovering a new color! I have never had rhubarb. I am from Alabama and it was not something my wonderful mother ever cooked or even thought about cooking. Probably. Anyway, the girls and I were very brave and cooked this recipe as written with two exceptions. No bourbon, so we used rum. No little pans, so we used a 10.” It was easy and yummy! with homemade whipped cream, of course!
Tuesdays with Dorie has lots of other folks who baked the same thing this week. Wonder if it was as fun for them?
We committed to this one. Bought the plaque and everything. Then life and school got in the way. I am a music professor and at the end of the semester I am frazzled and sugar-addicted. The girls had concerts and, well, I was so busy not so sure what all got in the way. We had time last night and the girls also made a great dinner from recipes in Southern Living and on the web. We enjoyed making the genoise batter. Kinda magical in its light consistency. They were very nice the first day.

Beautiful blog with the recipe: http://katiethisdell.wordpress.com/2013/04/16/twd-madeleines/
I had a lot of fun making this bread with a little help from Mom and AJ. It kind of scared me at first when it didn’t come together in the mixer, but then it did like the recipe said it would, so that was a relief. 😅 I liked how soft and moist it was, and it was also very pretty. -Barnie
Barnie made this recipe from start to finish! Wow! She also made the pork tenderloin and strawberry entree from this month’s Southern Living magazine. AJ made the strawberry cake from this issue. Even though we did not decorate or hide eggs, I think we had a very nice Easter.
The recipe from Baking with Julia can be found on Dawn’s beautiful blog.
These cookies were absolutely amazing! I loved how there was so much CHOCOLATE in it! I’m a dark chocolate lover and all of the chocolate in there was dark chocolate thanks to Mom! I prefer cookie dough more than cookies most of the time, and that also goes for this recipe, but the part that I liked most was the melted chocolate! I think it was more chocolate than coffee, and I would have liked to taste more of the coffee, but I loved them the way they were! -AJ
David helped with this one. He chopped the chocolate chunks and stirred the thick batter. These are very good. Like some folks said they do flatten out, but they still look good. We used semi-sweet chocolate since AJ really likes it. ~ Deborah
These were amazing! They had my two favorite things in it! I agree that the coffee wasn’t very strong, but I guess we can add more next time if we want to. They were really, really good. ~ Barney

Well. This was … not my best effort. Did not have compressed yeast or whole milk. Dough was more like pebbles than dough. I am not a quitter, so I moved on to the next step. An adventure also encompasses the excitement of little dips in the road. Flailed the hard lump of dough/butter/dough with the rolling pin since it was stronger than I. So, jumping to the final chapter. Euuw. I think the process is going to require some reflection and watching the video wouldn’t hurt. Sometimes a friend’s most helpful contribution is to show how smart everyone else is. You are welcome. No pictures will be shared. Again, you are welcome.
I have a cold, so no shopping for ingredients or baking. Will try this when I am better. It sounds wonderful!
