Palentine's turns 7! I'm pretty sure that the 7th anniversary gift is traditionally sugar.
A minimalist approach in 2017 meant a few less desserts and a few less decorations. With the added challenge of a guest who can't eat gluten or eggs.
These guys are boiled cider bars. Every since I bought boiled cider in Vermont last year, I am obsessed with it. When I found some at Murray's Cheese Shop in New York, I hauled it back home, despite its weight. These may be ugly, but they were SO TASTY.
These are sugar cookie bars. They were a disaster. Oh well.
Um. Brown butter cookie dough truffles. Half with bacon salt. So. Good.
Mint sugar cookies. Yum.
Gluten-free goodness - chocolate pretzel oat clusters.
Cupcakes, of course.
Bourbon pecan fudge brownies. These kept falling apart, but OH MAH GOD, SO TASTY. I made a second batch after Palentine's.
Meringues, also of course. With lace print. Genius.
Maybe my favourite thing I made - dulche de leche thumbprint cookies. Spending three hours terrified the can of condensed milk was going to explode while I boiled it into dulche de leche was 100% worth it.
Chocolates:
Not pictured: ice cream, with pretzels and chocolate. Take my word, it was good.
Looks delicious!!!
