Here it is! Next to whatever is in that red wrapper :thinking:

Those cookies are pretty large (Levain bakery-ish large), so one cookie usually lasts us a couple of days or so :slight_smile:

Hmmmm…looks like a nice lot of assorted goodies. Interesting that they responded to your feedback on the pistachio cookie, it certainly looks delicious!

Nah, ice cream and I are very well acquainted. I just dont have any in my freezer right now.

Recently, I’ve enjoyed 2-3 GS Thin Mints after dinner. But I also will have some Fage 2% yogurt with blueberries, kiwi, and grapes, a la @linguafood’s breakfasts.

Blueberry pie. My first pie, but with frozen pie crust. Filling not too sweet and was perfect.

This is the CC walnut cookie. I had a quarter, @Nannybakes :smiley:

Well, here’s the mess of what’s left in the paper bag after my PIC had a bite :smile:

The cookies usually arrive warm and gooey.

Husband brought these home, I don’t know from where


Probably a patient. Earlier this week someone sent him home with arepas and curtido!

A variation on this Classic Ice Cream Pie. Mine is not as photogenic but it is VERY tasty. I used a single 1.5 Quart (1.42L) container of Peanut Butter with Cookies and Cream ice cream – perfect amount to fill a purchased Keebler Graham crust. Drizzled with caramel sauce and half-teaspoon dollops of hot fudge sauce. Finished with cut-small pieces of Reeses peanut butter candy eggs.

Hershey’s toffee bits cookies made with turbinado sugar. For the egg hunt between services in the morning.

Dessert was a Meyer Lemon No-Bake Cheesecake that was surprisingly good! No, it’s not a New York-style cheesecake good, but it did the trick for dessert. Fat blackberries, and some blueberries for garnish. I halved the recipe linked below.

I didn’t have Graham crackers for the crust and I forgot about using gingersnaps, which would have been ideal. But I had Nilla Vanilla Wafers in the pantry closet that worked out perfectly!

@linguafood - I ended up trying the chain coffeeshop version of your luxe pistachio chocolate chip cookie. Costa is a well known coffee chain in the UK and has recently introduced a ‘pistachio chocolate sandwich cookie’. I had some time to kill this morning and a couple of pounds left on a Costa gift card I needed to use up, so I gave it a go.

The price is £3.25 for 351 calories of sugary nothing. If I tasted this blindfolded, I wouldn’t be able to guess it had anything to do with pistachio and the chocolate flavour was bad and synthetic. Costa does decent coffee but the pastries and confectionery are blah.

Oh, what a shame! Hope a better pistachio & chocolate cookie is in your very near future!

Raspberries 3 ways, fresh raspberries, raspberry jam brushed on crust, raspberry confectionery sugar sprinkled on berries. A little Clementine jam used as a berry glaze.
