TWD - Devil’s Thumbprints


 This week’s Tuesday with Dorie recipe is Devil’s Thumbprints. These are soft, chocolatey cookies, rolled in sugar and filled with jam in the “thumbprint”.

I used lingonberry jam to fill my cookies because that’s what I had. The slight tartness worked well with the sweetness of the cookies.

These cookies were delicious- I’d make them again.

TWD - The Everything Cake


This week’s Tuesday with Dorie recipe is The Everything Cake. The cake gets its moniker because its basic sponge batter can be left as is or paired with a multitude of flavours.
 


I chose to add frozen blueberries and blackberries to my cake, as well as rubbing some lime zest into the sugar. I am not sure if it was due to the berries, but my cake took nearly an hour to bake, double the time quoted in the recipe.


This cake is super easy to make, but super delicious. I think the addition of juicy berries was a great option, as it added colour and texture to the cake.


I ate a generous slice paired with Greek yoghurt and a cuppa. Yum!
