I’d made Golden Lemon Butter Cookies for my Chinese Mahjongg ladies, but one of the ladies was a no-show so there were a few leftover cookies. My brain said, “Get out the marble rolling pin, flatten some caramels and put … More There’s A New Wich in Town! Lemon and Wildflower Honey Caramel Wich
Not long ago, I bought almond and coconut flour along with erythritol so I’d be inclined to use them and learn about preparing gluten-free and sugar-free goodies.

My daughter likes her peanut butter cookies with chocolate, so a few times I’ve made *Peanut Butter Wiches, filling them with chocolate fudge frosting (and sometimes, with brown sugar cream cheese frosting, but for someone other than my daughter.)

I saw in my stats a few days ago that one view was referred from a blog where I found and made a previous recipe, so I used the blog search bar to find what I’d made and whom I’d credited for the recipe.
