I usually make three types of cookies. Just making sure these three sounds good. :D Thanks y'all!

And here is the recipe for "Almond Joy" Macaroon. I'm iffy with this recipe because of the pineapple. Think y'all would like this?

I like pinapple , but i think i would pass on it here , these should be All about the Almond and the Macaroonish goody they sit on , Oh and do EXTRA dark Chock !!!!

I stole your cookie recipes, love a shot of your buns, too. ;)

Almond Joy Macaroons should be renamed Yucky Yuk Things.
Well, maybe not that bad. I'd only eat one because I'm not mad keen on coconut and dislike almonds. The plus side of that is I might avoid strychnine poisoning one day.

More for me then !!!!

Thanks, Zip. I think I'll skip on this recipe since I'm iffy with it in the first place. I'll just stick with the three I already have now. That is enough work...whew!

Be careful of what you wish for. ;)

Chirstmas cookies I made for my nephew's teachers and to give to my friends. :) I was super busy and tired so I forgot to take a picture until they've all gone into containers. :p:

I have lots of leftover oat meal and cranberries, so I decided to make the following recipe. However, I added 1/2 cup chocolate chips and 1/2 pecans.

:yum: .

You know what blows my mind? It's cardamom, (not picking on you Lola, any copy-and-paster is absolved of responsibility, :)) and awhile back on Top Chef Just Desserts not one but two of the pastry chefs kept saying "cardamon" in interviews. How can you be a professional chef and not know the correct name of a common spice?

Those cookies do look really good though, Lola. :yum:

chefs need to be good at math not language....

chefs need to shut UP and get out those pots and pans!

Mama's hungry!

;)

To be honest, I don't even know that spice, and I don't use it either. I omitted it and added an extra 1/2 tsp. cinnamon. :p:

I ate a few and gave the rest away. I have a week left to lose down another inch to win a bet.

Anyways, I have to put away the mixer (darn heavy thang) and stop making cookies for a while. My mom is getting a bit upset that I keep on baking and giving everything away, hehehe.

It's a savory spice, used a lot in Indian cooking. Very pungent. Can come as whole brown seeds, or ground up. Cinnamon probably tasted much better. :)
