What are you baking now?

Oatmeal raisin and oatmeal chocolate cookies at the request of DH. And I just put 9 mini loaves of banana bread in the oven.

I made the Brown Wafer Cookies. They taste just like I remember, but I couldn't get them really flat. I'm thinking because I kept the dough in the refrigerator the whole time maybe they didn't melt flat enough in the oven. But they sure taste good! Thanks SpeckledHen for the recipe. It was on the side of the Potato Starch Flour box too!

I also made Rugelach. They are a middle eastern/Jewish traditional cookie and very popular here in the northeast. I'm too cheap to pay $6.99 a pound, so I make them myself. They are really worth the effort to make though!

Here's the recipe I use, in case anyone is interested. http://food.yahoo.com/recipes/kraft/57616/rugelach

Oh My! These look SO good!!!

Poor me. A whole fresh pot of coffee and no rugelach to go with it......and no time to bake any. The vet is coming out to see my aged horse who just isn't himself.

I guess you'll have to enjoy one (or six) of these for me! LOL

I will definitely be baking some as soon as I can squeeze a spare minute or two out of a day. I'll let you know how they turn out!

Wish I could send them to you! I have too many goodies in the house and my hips will suffer

Quick tip when making Rugelach dough, I beat cream cheese and butter in large bowl with electric mixer on medium speed until well blended. Before I start adding the flour I switch from beaters to dough hooks if you have them. It makes it MUCH easier since this is a very sticky dough. Enjoy!

Thanks for the tip, will do! I looked at the recipe and I just happen to have cream cheese in the fridge, plus nuts and homemade raspberry preserves.....who needs a clearer sign than that?

Thanks for posting the recipe. Do you also make your own Noodle Kugel?

I haven't made it, but my mother did years ago. I cook a traditional German kitchen so most Yiddish recipes are very similar and almost interchangeable. I love them all

Attempting hamburger buns today with the gump bread recipe and a little bit of added seasoning.

Never made my own buns before...

My wife and I have been experimenting with 100% whole wheat ( fresh ground ) bread. I never knew there was so much science in a "good" loaf of bread.
