A Brief Tuesdays With Dorie: Cafe Volcano Cookies


I interrupt this previously-scheduled exam-induced blogging break to bring you this very special recipe: Cafe Volcano Cookies, chosen by the witty MacDuff of Lonely Sidecar for this week's Tuesdays With Dorie. Phew. Yes, these cookies look a bit like a pile of, well, something unpleasant. But they are damn tasty. I normally hate nuts in baked goods, but not in this recipe. It figures that it would take putting nuts in meringues (one of my all-time favourites) to make me like them.

These don't look as pretty as Dorie's - they're not nearly as light and dainty, and I'm pretty sure Dorie's didn't have almost-burnt bottoms - but I bet they taste just as good.

Meanwhile, I'm still drowning in essay-and-project-land, but the end is in sight and I can't wait to get back into the blogosphere just in time for Christmas. See you then!

Pretty or not I still say these are very delish looking...I would be more than happy to share some cookies and milk with you.

I have made these twice. Once with espresso and once with cocoa. Both were good. Yours look yummy.

Considering you share my hatred of nuts in desserts and actually liked this recipe...i might have to take your word for it and put it on the top of my bake-list!

Hope you make it through exams! xo
