cookie monster

Growing up, one of my favorite Sesame Street characters was Cookie Monster, which was perhaps an indication of things to come...

I find an empty cookie jar terribly distressing. Luckily, my favorite cookies are quick and easy to make: the Walnut Biscuits (Cookies) from Linda Collister's Baking Bible. They have a lovely depth of flavor from the combination of demerara and golden caster sugars and are equally good when made with pecans.

  2. Yum Yum. We're gradually introducing our littlies to nuts (lots of allergies on both sides of the family) - walnuts might be a good one to try next!
