NOTE: If you friended this lj for the cookie entries, feel free to track the Buy mah cookies tag, and then you don't have to add me to your flist or reading list to get in on the leavings of my horrifying (and yet delicious) experiments. If you want to stay because I'm so gosh-darn loltastic, WELCOME.

So I am doing an experiment for V, and as a result, I have extra cookies this week. (V, yours actually look like this, but you get two more variations to try. They'll be mailed tomorrow).


Meet the limoncello shortbread with glaze (top). She's a feisty critter, With a crisp buttery taste and a sweet, slightly alcoholic glaze. These babies contain a tablespoon of lemon zest and a tablespoon of Mander's homemade limoncello.

Ingredients: butter, powdered sugar, limoncello, lemon zest, salt, flour. EGG FREE.

Then there is the limoncello meltaway (middle), a small round cookie baked briefly and then tossed with powdered sugar twice. These are so small (see final pic) they come in a batch of 14.



Ingredients: butter, powdered sugar, limoncello, vanilla, salt, flour, cornstarch. EGG FREE.

Sold out: Limoncello shortbreads.
Available: 1 dozen meltaways. $5 a dozen. Includes shipping costs. Due to glazes, they cannot be frozen, but will be shipped immediately for DA FRESHNESS.

You should join [community profile] food_porn -- your cookies are definitely worthy. This one looks really yummy!

I think I was on for a while, but there was so much sniping and wank, I just got sick of it. Maybe it's changed.

That hasn't been my experience of the group at all. Don't know when you were on there but it seems to me that the mods do a really good job keeping that sort of thing at bay. Maybe you could try it again?

Yeah, that was back in 2006.

YOUR COOKIES MAKE ME SALIVATE FROM THE UNITED KINGDOM.

My roommate here hasn't quite got the trick of cookies. She is stuffing me with homemade bread and applecake, though.

I LIKE THAT YOUR COOKIE IS ROUGHLY THE HEIGHT OF A TARDIS. THAT IS A MIGHTY COOKIE INDEED.

There is something a little ironic about using a Tardis to demonstrate scale. Are the cookies also bigger on the inside? I bet they are!

TASTIER ON THE INSIDE?

Yeah, that's what I said. Tastier is bigger for cookies.

You need a Tardis cookie cutter just because.

IT'S NOT ABOUT THE SIZE...OH WAIT, IT IS.

Are any cookies still up for claiming?

The meltaways are, but I was just going to trash them. And by trash, I mean, eat. I already did my post run today.

*snarf* Okay. I really wanted the others actually but I was holding out hoping someone would rescue me from myself!
