Cookies<\/h4>\n

 
\nChristmas 2016\/2017 Cookie Assortment<\/strong>
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nLinzer Stars, Chocolate Pecan Whiskey Balls, Marzipan Cookies, Biscotti (three kinds – Amaretto Cherry Almond, Pistachio, Anisette Orange Almond), and Identity Crisis Cookies.
\n 
\nRed Currant Raspberry Linzer Cookies<\/strong>
\nStars for Christmas…
\n\"Red<\/a>
\n…and hearts for Valentine’s Day.
\n\"Homemade<\/a>
\nPost-sugaring on the butcher block: an exercise in negative space.
\n\"Butcher<\/a>
\n 
\nMarzipan Cookies<\/strong>
\n\"Marzipan<\/a>
\n 
\nFinger Cookies<\/strong>
\n\"Apricot<\/a>
\nApricot filled butter cookies, dipped in chocolate and rolled in toasted almonds.
\n 
\nChocolate Pecan Whiskey Balls<\/strong>
\n\"\"<\/a>
\n 
\nIdentity Crisis Cookies<\/strong>
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nSo named because I couldn’t decide whether to make chocolate chip walnut or oatmeal raisin or toasted coconut and since I had all of those on hand…well, you get the picture.
\n 
\nBiscotti<\/strong>
\n\"\"<\/a>
\n
\nNanaimo Bars<\/strong>
\n\"Nanaimo<\/a>
\nMy take on Nanaimo Bars. Frangelico in the chocolate layer, Amaretto in the custard layer, and a few other modifications.
\n <\/p>\n

And Not Cookies<\/h4>\n

 
\nHomemade Pumpkin Pie<\/strong>
\n\"\"<\/a>
\nYes, from a real pumpkin, not a can \u2013 a decadently rich recipe I\u2019ve been tweaking for years that I\u2019m finally happy with. Topped with buttery, crunchy toasted pecan brittle (yep, that\u2019s homemade too) and the obligatory whipped cream.
\n 
\nRich\u2019s English Trifle<\/strong>
\n(Or, Not Your Mum\u2019s Pudding)
\n\"Rich's<\/a>
\nNamed Rich\u2019s English Trifle because it\u2019s so far removed from Traditional English Trifle at this point as to be unrecognizable to the average Limey.
\n 
\nCustardy Chocolate Babka Bread Pudding<\/strong>
\n\"Chocolate<\/a>
\nOkay, so the way I made this dish has more cheats in it than there are in Congress, but I didn\u2019t want to waste some delicious chocolate babka that had gone stale so I turned it into Custardy Chocolate Babka Bread Pudding. Quick, easy, and packed with even more calories than the original!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
