http://www.thedutchbakersdaughter.com/2009/12/speculaas.html?m=1 I made these in an attempt to stop buying them at the store and god drat. They are so good. Dipping them in tea is heaven. Only problem is that it makes 60-70 ish cookies so my friends and family I handed them out to want more immediately. That was too high yield for me to bother with cookie cutters so I started by rolling the first dozen into balls and flattening them with the bottom of a glass. This also proved too much work so I rolled the dough out in large sheets and cut it into squares with a pizza cutter. That worked great. And I made enough spice mix for 2 more batches, I'm going to try putting it in everything....

Do they taste good? No one will know/care what they were supposed to look like.

It's been a long time since I had a serious baking failure so my time had come. I tried the foodwishes soft pretzel recipe which uses store bought pizza dough and should come together quick and easy in like half an hour. No. Everything went wrong that could possibly go wrong, boiling them in the alkaline solution was a huge foamy mess, and even making half of them cinnamon-sugar coated as insurance against failure was not enough. They had such an intense PRETZEL chemical taste I nearly spit out my first bite. I left them for my housemates.

SymmetryrtemmyS posted:What are my best options for a vegan butter substitution? I'm making cookies for a crowd, and some dietary restrictions apply. Vegan margarine is usually your best bet, but depending on end textures you can also use bananas, apple sauce, baking powder+water, or extra oil. I often end up helping with the xmas baking for my vegan sister and the margarine is best overall, but for example the banana can work in oatmeal cookies even better. Whatever kind of cookie you're making, google for a vegan version and see what they used as your guide.

The Bananana posted:I need a little direction. Do you have chai spices? Google "chai spice cookies" and compare the amount of mix you have to the amount in a recipe. Add as much chai spice to your mix as there is proportionate to the recipe you choose from google. Or add slightly less for safety. Taste the dough. Add more possibly.

Either. Half the dough before you put in the chai and try both. Baking is a series of attempts and failures.

It's shortbread with chocolate chunks, that's what it tastes like.

Bogart posted:One-Bowl Brownies This is amazingly insane because 10 tablespoons is 1/2 cup + 2 tablespoons, which is fine for the next ingredient but apparently not for the butter measurement

Bogart posted:In fairness, butter comes in sticks and is most easily measurable by the tablespoon. Each stick is a 1/2 cup. Putting 1 stick+ or 1/2 cup+ still makes way more sense than by tablespoons alone, that is a bananas way to write it out.

Boris Galerkin posted:Thanks but unfortunately that says to use cups of flour which makes it a poo poo recipe in my eyes and not worth bothering. That's from ATK/Cook's Illustrated, who obsessively test their recipes and give flour measurements in weight if you look for that recipe elsewhere. You must be a hit at parties.
