I'm still trying to decide on cookie recipes for the big Chorus fundraiser coming up. Chalk it up to my competitive steak, but I'm not going to settle for a simple pan of brownies when it is supposed to be a caberet themed affair
The Italian Lemon Cookies from a couple weeks ago were a hit.
Today's mission was to find something equally delicious, yet complimentary.
I decided on a little Cafe Mocha inspiration. With spices. And you can never go wrong with chocolate.
The results? A very nice blend of spices & coffee flavor amid the chocolate. You know you've found a good combination when the cookies start disappearing while they are still hot!
I'll try & get the recipe up on Stuff We Eat by tomorrow.
After one mess was cleaned up, I decided to play with polymer. Sculpy is pretty much the grown-up version of Playdoh. I had done a bit of sculpting a while back, & figured I might as well use up some of the material I had left. I've been cruising the Elfwood site & settled on attempting a dragonling.
Never ceases to amaze me how a tiny little craft can yield a bigger mess than 5 dozen glazed cookies! I think I'll be cleaning up mica powder for a week!

Holidays are coming - I'll take a care package along with Abandoned son.
Nice Dragony thing...:)
Well, it's your lucky day...he's coming home for the Holidays. Which means I can send you BOTH care packages!!!
And he's a little rough, but cute, thanks! I have a ways to go in my grasp of the sculpting arts!
Your cookie recipe sounds delicious! Anything with chocolate and I'm there......
Those cookies do look good! Yum. :-)
