Hootoo does have that effect on people, sometimes

hopes the medicinal cookies aren't actually NyQuil chip or something..

Nah, these medicinal cookies are much tastier than NyQuil.

phew!!!

that reminds me I need to make some cookie dough... I made pie pastry dough yesterday to make an apple pie today..

she's after your secret recipees Evangline watch her

*giggles* actually I remembered I had my spice cookie recipe on hootoo so that's what I'm going to make... but if you have a good butter cookie recipe that would be lovely

see told you

*giggles* I'll give you my applie pie recipe in exchange..

I'm sure I have a butter cookie recipe, somewhere. I don't make rolled cookies often because it's so hot here, most of the year.

oh I don't roll them.. I use them to make thumbprints with my muscadine jam or to make snickerdoodles mostly..

snickerdoodles?

I like making Apple Pies

Ooooh! Looks yummy, Reef!

I'll post my pie recipe if you like.. it's pretty simple..

I'm experimenting on the crust with this one. I crushed up some graham crackers to mix with the flour used.. I'll let you know how it turns out..

Cheers, I had an experiment with Sweet Pastry instead of Shortcrust for my Mince Pies

how did that turn out? usually in my pie crusts I will use apple cider instead of water for the small bit of liquid I do use.. and I use all butter instead of shortening.. no trans fats and all that jazz..

The pastry was really light so I'll use it this year, butter does make it taste nice

I've also found that whatever liquid is left in the bowl from tossing the apples and spice and such makes an excellent wash for the pastry instead of egg or cream..
