TWD - Coconut-Milk-Chocolate Marble Cake

This week’s Tuesdays with Dorie (Baking with Dorie) recipe is Coconut-Milk-Chocolate Marble Cake. 

I made a mini loaf and six muffins instead because I did not have enough time to wait for a full sized loaf cake to bake before I went out.


One side of the cake did not marble very well.



 The other side is perfectly marbled.

Marbling or no marbling, this cake is delicious.

TWD - Breton Butter Cake



This week’s Tuesdays with Dorie recipe is Breton Butter Cake. 

This was more of a biscuit than a cake, as Dorie had based it on shortbread from the Brittany region. It is quite flat and has a chewy texture.

As the name suggests, it has a buttery, salty flavour. I liked it as is without adornments - it is very easy to slice off a bit and eat it.

TWD - Cocoa-Cornmeal Biscotti


 This week’s Tuesdays with Dorie recipe is Cocoa-Cornmeal Biscotti. They are exactly what it says on the tin - biscotti flavoured with cocoa and cornmeal, and containing slivered almonds.

They were quite tasty and easy to make. No complaints here. 

I made only a half recipe as the full recipe made over 40 biscuits.
