I wrote the other day about how I no longer derive joy from baking. But I discovered that in the middle of a medium-sized bake. Later I posted pictures of the baking, and everyone exclaimed, “You’re baking! But I thought you said you weren’t going to!” Yeah… I won’t. But I didn’t realize I didn’t want to until I was too far down the road of baking this recent stuff to stop. I finished the bake, vowed only to do my planned Halloween bake next month, and then that’s it.
Meanwhile, if you want to try your hand at the things I made for my office this week, here are the recipes:
- Nanaimo bars
- M&M cookies/white chocolate macadamia cookies (same recipe; replace M&Ms with white chocolate chips and macadamia nuts instead)
- carrot sandwich cookies
- peanut butter sandwich cookies
- Stuffed chocolate chip cookies (stuffed with whole peanut butter cups, but you could use brownies or some other candy; I used leftover dough to make some plain chocolate chip cookies)
- chocolate biscotti
- chocolate cookies with mint chips
- ANZAC biscuits
- oatmeal cinnamon cookies with chocolate and butterscotch chips (used this recipe but omitted raisins, added chocolate chips and butterscotch chips instead)
