I also had a dream where the woman from Smitten Kitchen asked me what I want to do, and I woke up saying, "I want to bake. I want to be a pastry chef." I don't put too much stock in my dreams, but that one was pretty encouraging.<br /><br />X MX Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09257311480789571710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8051769502117632008.post-63216545720468492812010-05-08T13:15:43.634-07:002010-05-08T13:15:43.634-07:00Also, a way to marry the gingersnap and chocolate ...Also, a way to marry the gingersnap and chocolate together is with this recipe from smitten kitchen that I haven't tried, but might now that I have a tart pan - http://smittenkitchen.com/2008/11/dark-chocolate-tart-with-gingersnap-crust/#more-1422.Spangledhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15059364091231891242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8051769502117632008.post-77071142178394796912010-05-08T13:12:57.428-07:002010-05-08T13:12:57.428-07:00The molasses-ginger cookies that Will's family...The molasses-ginger cookies that Will's family makes are really good: http://www.examiner.com/x-23602-Tacoma-Baking-Examiner~y2009m12d11-Ginger-cookies--an-easy-and-delicious-holiday-cookie. The recipe does call for 1/4 C shortening to 1/2 C butter, so you could try that ratio in your cookies. <br />I like rolling the cookies in coarse-grained decorating sugar because they look cuter, but Will likes them rolled in regular sugar because more sugar sticks so they're sweeter.Spangledhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15059364091231891242noreply@blogger.com
