we had a couple of long weekends, and I went on a baking frenzy. Tried a low fat lemon tart, and then a massive batch of cookies. the feeling was awesome. btw, the darker cookies are not chocolate cookies..but somewhat burnt cookies. haha. I forgot about the cookies when I took a friend on a tour around the house. DOH.
Lemon tart was really…tart. The citrus taste was biting, but yet the crust sorta balanced it all out. The recipe called for light sour cream rather than cream so that could have been the reason why it was so tart.
The cookies was sweet. I actually cringed at the amount of sugar I poured into the mixing bowl. Then again, I had to give the recipe a try before cutting down on the sugar the next time. I think I overdid the chocolate chips too, both white and dark. =P
Looking for something to bake tomorrow..but judging by our schedule, I’ll probably not have enough time to do something. Maybe next week then.
For now, just happy to scour through my magazines and relook at some recipes in a different light. This week, I foresee the use of haloumi. mmMM.
