Often and on repeat. That’s the theme for this scone recipe in our Teaching Kitchen. We make these scones for our Jams & Jellies Class, plus it’s a staple in our Afternoon Teas. It’s a straightforward scone with tons of possibilities. Toss in nuts. Add in Crystallized Ginger. Brushed with cream and sanded with sugar?...
Whether it’s Thanksgiving Day or any other day, mashed potatoes are best made right before the meal – a la minute, as they say in the restaurant biz. But there are some things you can do to make the mashed potato-making run smoothly. Get those spuds peeled and in water. Park them in your fridge...
This crispy, buttery oatmeal cookie is studded with white chocolate and then topped with just a pinch of flaky salt. We always recommend pairing extracts when baking. Here we use our Pure Vanilla Extract and Hazelnut Flavor. It’s all topped off with a smattering of Fleur de Sel for a salty, crunchy, sweet bite.
This recipe is a two-pan, sheet pan situation. Loading everything onto one sheet pan would cause steaming when what we are looking for is GBD = Golden, Brown, Delicious roasted veggies. The solution is all in the planning. Load up two pans and plan to “burp” your oven midway to release the steam. The pan...
As soon as we saw these in Bon Appetit, we knew we had to make them ourselves! The sweet cream = coconut, the little hit of salt, the decorating possibilities – what’s not to love? We added to the cardamom essence by bringing in our British Cake Spice. The combo of warm spices work perfectly...

There’s something about the snap of a shortbread that makes us so happy. These buttery cookies are studded with rich pecans and enhanced with our Pure Maple Extract. Enjoy them with a cup of coffee or tea. Or a big glass of ice cold milk. Don’t forget to give them a dunk in our Salted...
In our adaptation of Dorie Greenspan’s beloved cookies, we used a slightly heavier hand on the salt. Dorie tells a wonderful story of her neighbor who after eating one of the chocolate shortbread cookies surmised that if everyone had one of these treats, there would be world peace. We agree. These are amazingly delicious cookies....
Anne had a major 80’s flashback while icing these cookies. They’re reminiscent of the pink-packaged Mother’s Iced Oatmeal cookies which Anne ate loads of while watching after-school specials and drinking Ovaltine. As much as she loves her memories, these cookies are way better. The pumpkin plays perfectly with the oatmeal, Vietnamese Cinnamon and Pumpkin Pie...
Garam Masala is typically reserved for savory cooking. Indian recipes often call for a teaspoon or two in a big, bubbly pot of golden curry—for good reason! Garam Masala is a blend of coriander, cumin, cloves, cinnamon along with a little turmeric. We wondered what this aromatic blend would do for a spice cookie, so...
