I know we’re still in October but it is never too early to start working on Holiday gifts, right? Few days ago I’ve stumbled upon this post at the Love & Olive Oil and thought – what a fun idea! Of course I signed up right away because who wouldn’t want to […]
I have a list of dishes/baked goods titled – too difficult/complicated to make. It contains, mainly, just names of foods, no recipes, and really the food/recipe doesn’t have to have anything special to end up there. It is just a matter of my perception and gut feeling. You know, I look at the […]
St. Patrick’s Day is coming this weekend and I chose to make clover cookies for the occasion. Some of them are dyed green, some just sprinkled with sugar, but all taste buttery and this buttery aroma was filling out the kitchen during baking. I think this is why I like baking so much. The smell […]
Valentine’s Day is close enough to start planning it. Even if you really don’t celebrate it, preparing few treats can’t hurt anyone, can it? 🙂 These cinnamon hearts are not too sweet, perfect for an afternoon with coffee or tea.
Recipe was adapted from Joy of Cooking.
Ingredients:
1/4 cup warm water 1 package […]
I am leaving for a couple of weeks, so I’ve been taking double shifts of baking and cooking just to have enough good material for the time of my absence. And since day has only 24 hours I’ve been forced to choose rather simple recipes. Lucky for all of us it doesn’t mean that they […]

Ingredients:
11 tablespoons butter, room temperature 1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour + 2 tablespoons (to be used separately) 1 teaspoon baking powder 1/2 […]
I think I’ve found a good cookie recipe book – Martha Stewart’s Cookies. I used it few times, and the results were always more than pleasing. These meltaways recipe was adapted from this book, and it also turned out to be a success. Although I was not so optimistic at the beginning. After all […]
Probably this is the last post before Christmas, so why not make it about cookies. Again.
I must warn you – these gingerbread cookies are very tasty and worth the effort but the dough is rather difficult to handle. After I managed to get done with cutting the cookies my kitchen looked like after the […]
I am on a mission to find good cookies recipes. Cookies that don’t taste like sugar mixed with flour. Perhaps I already mentioned that so far the best source was Cook’s Illustrated and this is the case this time. These cookies have nice buttery flavor and very sandy texture, which causes them to just melt […]
Although winter has come to some parts of the world it is still away from where I live right now. I don’t know for how long though, since it is very cold outside. Regardless, I thought I will bring some sugar powder snow to my kitchen and freshly baked cookies. Almond Spritz Cookies are great […]
