I want to make some sugary delights, like that of an
old-fashioned taste in a cookie. Well, I have flour, eggs, oil, sugar...pecans...almonds...a handful or so of currants...honey, peanut butter, jam...Is there anything I can make that is yummy from any one of the ingredients I have? I was thinking maybe caramel or something, like old fashioned candy made from boiled sugar water with stuff added in. Or pecan bark or something?
Despite the fact that chocolate
oatmeal cookies are not much considered a favorite these times, old cookie recipes are still among the best, and the reason why? Traditional cookie recipes carry the emblem of the memorable delicious taste and spirit of long ago. Therefore it is proven that sometimes traditions are best! Even the kids today will want to get savvy to make a treat of this wonderful historical taste in their cookie.
As well as I can remember, every time my youngest Aunt makes a batch of a cookie, she always begin by pairing things that she likes like peanuts and beer, for instance, then she'd find ways to wrap them up together in a neat little package. Chocolate and coffee were a pretty easy one to accomplish, but getting pastis, which I'm wild about, into a cookie, took a little more experimenting.
In addition to her classic combination, she said its her great way to encourage people to be more adventurous gastronomically. She says that combining unexpected flavors and then offer them from the framework of something that’s so comfortable and familiar, guarantees deliciousness in your cookie recipe. Like her, I've also become a big fan of anything baked. So good that when I eat them, I say ‘that's really good!’
