Baking

I’ve loved thumbprints since I was a kid. Any recipe that allows me to jam my thumb into cookie dough and fill it with jam is a winner in my books.

This gooey, delicious, pull-apart bread is best served straight out of the oven, and is big enough to feed a hungry crowd.

A little bit sweet, a little bit salty and a whole lot tasty. Even better, it can be prepared in 15 minutes and is out of the oven in less than an hour.

Now that I have a wee one, and there are plenty of holiday play dates, potlucks, and other get togethers, seems like it’s as good a time as any to make cookies almost too pretty to eat.

It's totally possible with a few substitutions. Case in point, check out this tasty orange-apricot-fig-date square recipe you'll love
