This is my first month with the Daring Bakers and I am a day late in posting…hopefully I will not be kicked out (fingers crossed)! I have to admit that I wasn’t too thrilled that my inaugural challenge would be vegan crackers. Anyway, I warmed up to the cracker idea since it would be [...] I love this dessert.

The texture was also quite harmonious. The cookie itself is soft, the chocolate chips [...] I love having a reason to make a dessert, so when we planned a get together with some friends this past weekend I ran to the cookbook shelf in search of deliciousness. I got the Magnolia Bakery book and began looking for a recipe that I could make without having to go to the [...] |
