Moving from one Dorie Greenspan recipe to the next, this recipe for World Peace Cookies, like the Dulce de Leche Duos, made its way onto my holiday baking rotation after baking it with the Tuesday’s With Dorie group. These are a sablé or shortbread style cookie, which isn’t typically...

I first made this recipe when participating in the Tuesday’s with Dorie baking group way back in 2008 – 2010. Some of you may recall, from earlier posts, that the Tuesday’s with Dorie baking group was actually the impetus for the original incarnation of this website. At that time,...

This week, I’m sharing the second of the three brownie recipes included on my Christmas goodie trays.
