Meet baking guru Rose Levy Beranbaum and learn more about the cookies and techniques in your class. Rose discusses general cookie ingredients and how to measure them, shows how to make the dough for Lemon Jammies and shares tips for alternate mixing methods.
Roll out and cut your Lemon Jammies with Rose's guidance. You'll learn about some specialty tools to make the job easier, then get tips for baking the cookies to a perfect, golden brownness. Rose shows how to fill your cookies and explains the best way to store them.
Learn about drop cookies, the most forgiving variety. Inspired by an earthquake, Rose's Luxury Oatmeal Cookies are made with homemade granola. Her Praline Pecan Meringue Cookies contain just three ingredients but are packed with flavor. Follow Rose's techniques for both and choose your favorite!
Master shaped cookies by making Rose's favorite classic chocolate-chip recipe. You'll learn about the differences between bleached and unbleached flour, how to clarify butter and mix up the dough. Get Rose's tips for shaping and underbaking to yield a soft cookie that is truly heavenly.
Try a savory-sweet shaped cookie next, with Rose's slice-and-bake Pepparkakor recipe. The secret to shaping these peppery ginger cookies includes a common household item that might surprise you! Slice the dough super-thin and bake, then serve with goat cheese. Perfect for cocktails!
Bake up some cake-like cookies: Molasses Crumb Cakelets and Chocolate Sweetheart Madeleines. You'll see how to make the crumb topping and batter before baking the cakelets (Rose's only vegan cookie), then make ganache to glaze luscious madeleines, meticulously shaped with the aid of a piping bag and silicone mold.
Pastry cookies are Rose's favorite. Rosebud Roly-Polies and Pecan Pielets can be made using pie crust scraps, or you can make the dough just for these delicious treats. They might become your new favorites, too!
