This cookie is the bomb! It's a crispy almond butter cookie.
It's safe to say the Scandinavians know cookies.
Here's the recipe. The "frosting" is kind of weird, it's just really melted butter with almonds. I think I would skip the frosting next time and just put chopped almonds into the cookies. And don't pay attention to the cooking time, just watch for the edges to get brown. The key to the deliciousness of the cookie is the oatmeal (I used whole oats) drenched in warm butter at the beginning. The butter softens the oats up so you just get a slight hint of the flavor and texture of an oatmeal cookie.
for dinner yesterday I had the same thing everyone else did
corned beef from Taylors. So good!
I don't know why I don't eat corned beef and cabbage more often. It's so good!

Scott and I were saying the same thing. It's economical, and good for sandwiches or hash as leftovers. And I like the cabbage in the corned beef juice almost as much as I like the meat.
ReplyDeleteAnyone ever had it at Brownie's Lounge? It's a weekly special, but I forget which day of the week. The vinyl banner out front touts it as "world famous". I'm usually leery of that kinda chest-beating, but I do remember my club sandwich there as the best I've had anywhere, so I'm willing to bet it's pretty great.
ReplyDeleteBrownie's Lounge sounds extremely promising.
ReplyDeleteI want the recipe to whatever that is on the cover of that cookbook
oh, oops, the above was me, JD
ReplyDeleteHey JD-

That cookie looks amazing!!
ReplyDeleteOh Brownie's... I haven't been there since the Kitten Kats disbanded. My relocation of Brownie's is foggy though happy overall including the CBNC.

make that recollection... jeez
ReplyDeleteBrownies does the corned beef on Thursdays. For some reason most places that have a weekly corned beef special does it on Thursdays. Distillery, too, I think. Also, Brownies does a bomb French Dip sandwich on Fridays. And, fwiw, you can get the corned beef and the French dip as either a plate or sandwich.
