July 4th and Oatmeal Ice Cream Sandwiches

July 4th and Oatmeal Ice Cream Sandwiches

The flash burned a ghostly image onto my retina, and the gray fingers clawed into the edges of my brain. I blinked and blinked again. After a few minutes I could see, but the negative was in there real good. It was a few hours before I stopped seeing the explosion when I closed my eyes.


Macadamia and White Chocolate Chunk Cookies

Macadamia and White Chocolate Chunk Cookies

To say that any one recipe in Cookies and Brownies is more decadent than another would be a stretch. This macadamia and white chocolate chunk might be that one, but it's entirely dependent on the quality of your ingredients like with everything. Aside from white chocolate and macadamia nuts, there's only one substantial difference between this dough and a chocolate chip cookie.

The most noticeable difference between this cookie and the other Oatmeal Cookie recipe in Cookies and Brownies is the generous helping of coconut. I think coconut really accentuates the chewiness of these oatmeal cookies, and because it's unsweetened coconut, it does so without adding any sugar. The large flake coconut gives a depth and texture to these chewy gems, and the dough makes plenty of cookies to share.

A few notes about this recipe:


Faux Florentines

Faux Florentines

I only made Florentines once in school, but I remember them being soft of labor intensive. I was looking forward to making these from Cookies and Brownies because the recipe has a lot of interesting ingredients (orange peel and candied ginger) and it seemed a lot easier than digging up the recipe from school!

I was hoping I'd found another gluten-free recipe from Cookies and Brownies until I discovered that there can be quite a bit of gluten contamination in oatmeal, the core of this recipe. Otherwise, it might have been a tasty gluten-free sweet!
