Rainy Day Fun

The foundation in which every baking item relies on, butter. I could not think of any recipe that I have baked without butter. Butter is the sensation of creamy delight and/or the simple word, fatning. Every French cook has to know that every recipe is going to have some bit of butter!!

This is the 5th recipe in the series of 300. Yikes!! I made two other recipes but I forgot to take a picture of them. =] The 3rd was called Yoyo's. They were almost like the Monte Carlos but a little bit different. The 4th was Black Pepper Shortbread Cookies. They had black pepper in it!! You couldn't even taste it!
5. Coconut and Cherry Cookies.

These were sooooooo easy. They only took 10 minutes to make and 10 minutes to bake. And there wasn't very much ingredients.




And by the way, it's raining outside!

2. Monte Carlo Cookies

For my dear Father's birthday, I made him Monte Carlo cookies! They are so easy and fun to make!! They are number 2 of 300 recipes that I am going to make! Rolling the dough and spreading on the jam, I just love doing it all!!! The filling has raspberry jam and custard filling!
One day I will go to Paris France and see all the fun food and desserts they make and get fun ideas!!

Baking in the Morning

I got up this morning and I thought to myself, what a good day for baking! So I got up and I made breakfast and some cookies for Dad! When I bake, I feel a big sense or accomplishment! "sigh" What one can do in the early hours of the morning!!
