I baked Chewy Maple cookies and Oatmeal Coconut cookies from dough I had portioned and frozen. Also made a Stollen. This time instead of making a free form crescent I panned it in a 9x5 USA pan. I baked up pretty nice but I'll know more tomorrow when I slice it. All this baking is to bring to a neighbor for New Years Eve.
It's interesting. I think they need a committed kitchen staff to pull it off. Not sure I want to eat there. Caffeine doesn't like me, so I certainly don't want any food made from coffee grounds.
Yesterday I baked some Oatmeal Coconut Cookies and Chewy Maple Cookies. I had already made the dough and had it portioned out, in the freezer so it was an easy task. I melted some white chocolate and drizzled it on the maple cookies. Not as pretty as I wanted, my drizzling skills need work. I think next time I will dip them halfway in the chocolate instead. Today I made my Wheat/oat/semolina recipe into dinner rolls (12). I made 9 of them into a basket weave and last 3 regular shape because I got tired of making the tiny ropes (I made 54 ropes each weighing 10 grams). They came out nice.
Yesterday I made Stollen from The Bread Baker's Apprentice For the fruit I used KAF Fruitcake fruit blend that I had soaked in rum for 3 days. I subbed walnut oil for all but 1 tablespoon of butter.
