Italiancook, thank you. That's just regular powdered sugar.
I plan on making another Stollen next week, New Years eve is my neighbors Golden Retriever 17th birthday and I am invited. He is a rescue dog that they got when he was 9 after their 8 year old Golden died.
Tonight I baked oatmeal cookies with raisins, chocolate chips and walnuts.
Today I baked almond macaroons.
Today I baked the Stollen, from The Bread Baker's Apprentice. I subbed honey for the sugar and subbed part of the butter with avocado oil.
I am not an expert on shortbread, but to my way of thinking, anything that involves flour, sugar and butter is begging for vanilla.
On Monday I baked a loaf of braided bread, 50% whole wheat. Wednesday I baked a batch of Acorn cookies from a recipe posted here. I also have dried fruit (KAF fruitcake blend and raisins) soaking in rum that I will use in Stollen.
Happy Birthday Mrs. Nolan, I hope you enjoyed your cake!
Thank you, Italiancook, it's seasoned with thyme, a little kosher salt and olive oil.
Skeptic, I believe the chicken cooks more evenly that way. The skin browns evenly all around and the metal rack sends heat into the cavity. It's pretty that way. More often though, I cut the back out and lay the chicken flat in a roasting pan. That way the cavity is eliminated and I can easily season both sides of the bird.
Luvpyrpom, a whole chicken is a lot for me too, but it makes easy lunches and dinners for the next several days. More often then not, I just buy chicken breasts but every now and then I want the whole bird.
Thank you, Italiancook. I'm going to bookmark that.
Today I roasted a large chicken on a vertical rack. I haven't cut into it yet, it's resting while I do the sides, which will be noodles and carrots and Brussels sprouts.
Last night I made Cornish Hens, they came out a bit dry, they always do. I don't know how to time them or where to stick a thermo probe.
BakerAunt, I think you're lucky only 1/2 Tbs was missing. Most dogs would inhale the whole thing in a flash.
Thank you Joan and Italiancook.
Today I made pumpkin oat waffles.
Yes, Accent is msg.
