I was invited to a Holiday Cookie Exchange Party. Lovely idea and I adore the host, fabulous friend Ruthie Bailey, but there's one problem ... I don't bake! Never been one for exact measurements and as you bakers know, you've to follow the recipe.So what does a gal do? She calls gal pal, baker extraordinaire for help! Jill Offer is one of the best bakers around! So today I hit the store to buy my ingredients and then to her house to learn how to bake yummy Molasses cookies. I need to bring 6 dozen home baked cookies and was told that Ruthie can tell if they are store bought.... so no way was I going to try to pull that off!
So there I was pouring sugar, flour, molasses, and ginger into a huge Kitchen Aide mixer and making homemade dough! Tasted delicious and I can't wait to bake them and present them at the party!
Happy Holidays!
