Evening all,
Well the time has rolled around for the Irish food bloggers Twookieparty (Twitter cookie bake up). Below I have posted photos of the various cookies that I baked for the event and I will post recipes for them all next week. Looking forward to seeing all that is on offer from everyone that is participating. I will also update this post with a link to all participating bloggers over the weekend.
(delicious with a generous dollop of Lemon Curd or just on their own)
(these have created a cookie monster in our house & very nearly led to divorce the other night)
(a delicate orange undertone with a rich dark chocolate topping)
(Heaven on a plate. The dollop of Nutella hides a lovely soft marshmallow surprise.
These bad boys stick to your teeth and are like dense mini cakes. NOM!)
(light and buttery and dotted with chopped fresh strawberries)
(these literally melt in your mouth. A funny sensation at first but oh so delicious.
The Nutella centre adds some extra depth to these rich morsels)
All wrapped up, ready to be gifted out to happy homes.
Extra dough wrapped and labelled for the freezer
(almost all of the above recipes yielded 36 cookies. I divided each dough mixture in 3.
I baked 1 batch of 12 from each and will freeze the other 2 batches for a later date.
I had to do it or I would probably be dead right now, seriously!)
Full recipes for all will follow next week. For now you will just have to drool over the pictures. I'm off to eat some more cookies. Enjoy the weekend, and if we all pray hard enough the sun might just come back out to play. : )
Can't wait for all those recipes.
ReplyDeleteBet your visitor numbers will increase when word gets out about those cookies in the freezer!!!!
Will post one a day next week so you will be all cookied out. Having a revolving door installed on Monday, figure it will save me having to get up and down all the time. :)
ReplyDeleteWow these bags are lovely, labels are splendid! Good job!
ReplyDeleteThank you manu. A little brown paper, ribbon and some business cards worked out pretty well together.
ReplyDeleteThose chocolate surprise cookies do indeed look NOM-NOM-NOMMY! In fact they all do! Can't wait.
ReplyDeleteClaireBear,
ReplyDeleteThey are dangerous. Am so glad that I only baked 1/3 of the dough and gave some away because I would have just eaten them all myself. NOM. May bake some more later in the week. :)
oh that's exactly what i do when i bake cookies, dough sausages for the freezer. so handy when you want to pretend to be bree vanderkamp when somebody drops in for coffee!
ReplyDeletetulpenpink,
ReplyDeletehehe I know, my sis in law was in awe of me on Sunday morning after very little sleep and having just whipped up breakfast, I casually got up and baked some cookies. She was very happy to get a couple of 'sausages' to take home and pass off as her own.
