I really like sea salt. And specifically Falk Salt, which is this neat-o pyramid salt. So when I decided to make these spicy PB Chocolate Chip Cookies, I thought that using their chipotle flavor would be just the thing. It was … these are very yummy. If you don’t have chipotle sea salt, you can use regular and just crush a few red pepper flakes into it with your fingers. Also, this recipe makes about 60 cookies, so it that is too much for you, it’s one that can be easily halved.
I thought that I would try something different today, and practice my penmanship. On mini-tiny Scrabble cookies. Cute, fun and different and if you have friends who are into Scrabble or Words with Friends, these might be cute and cupcake or cake toppers. I’d made these a couple of years ago for Valentine’s Day, but have updated my sugar cookie recipe since then.
As an aside, when I was in high school, I had my wisdom teeth out. They were pretty impacted and the whole surgery turned out to be a bigger ordeal than planned, so I was out of school for quite some time. My sister at the time was dating an exchange student from Uruguay; a great guy named Eduardo. He came over every day after school and played Scrabble with me because I was so bored. Whenever I see a Scrabble board, I think of him.
This pan-sized cinnamon roll is just the thing for Easter breakfast. Instead of making individual cinnamon buns, I wrapped the whole thing into one big one, filing the entire pan. Quite ingenious, actually. We then ended up slicing it just like you would cut a pie, but you could also take it out of the pan, and let people pull off a strip. Either way, a nice presentation and really quite simple to make.
