Gingersnaps

October 6, 2017 By Angela Olson Matthews 2 Comments · Print recipe ·

I love these  homemade Gingersnaps. I like them soft on the inside and crispy around the edges. I like them with a cup of tea, I love them with a glass of milk, I especially like them in a snowstorm. The last time I made them, I was testing recipes with a dear friend. She…

Orange Cookies

July 28, 2017 By Angela Olson Matthews Leave a Comment · Print recipe ·

I have tried other orange cookie recipes, my mistake! This is Mom’s Orange Cookies recipe. They are a really soft, light cookie with just the right amount of orange flavor. The ingredients for this recipe are written exactly the way Mom gave it to me, I love that part. Did I tell you they are…

Shortbread Cookies

July 14, 2017 By Angela Olson Matthews Leave a Comment · Print recipe ·

Who doesn’t love shortbread cookies? A little crunchy, a little buttery with a drizzle of 60% Cacao Bittersweet Chocolate. The little surprise in this cookie is the almond paste, oh, so subtle. They are delicious with a glass of milk or a cup of tea. Makes: about 20 cookies Prep time: 15-20 minutes Chill time:…

This…

Madeleines

December 2, 2016 By Angela Olson Matthews 2 Comments · Print recipe ·

  I just love Madeleines, they are so delicious with a cup of tea. I use grated lemon zest for some and orange zest for others, depending on what I am making to go with them. I used lemon zest for the Madeleines in the photo. I learned the trick is to put the buttered…

Chocolate Almond Sandwich Cookie

October 5, 2016 By Angela Olson Matthews Leave a Comment · Print recipe ·

  Our adorable Grandson Luke, loves chocolate!  I think I should rename this Luke’s Cookie. Did I tell you Luke loves Nutella (see below)? This is not a really soft cookie, it needs to be able to hold the Nutella or the filling of your choice. You can use raspberry jam or any melted chocolate that…

Mocha Bars

July 28, 2016 By Angela Olson Matthews Leave a Comment · Print recipe ·

I know this may seem like a very different kind of recipe, but, it is easy and it tastes amazing. The crunch of the peanuts, the texture of the angel food cake, the almond flavor from the maraschino cherry juice, creates a flavor that is such a memory from my childhood. My Grandmother, Lois (Toots), who…

Peanut Butter Blossom Cookie

July 20, 2016 By Angela Olson Matthews Leave a Comment · Print recipe ·

  I have  been making this recipe for more years than I would like to admit. In fact, my recipe book is falling apart from so many years of use, and I no longer recognize my own handwriting. Despite the state of the book, the family never fails to ask for these cookies and they…

Small Chocolate Whoopie Pie

May 26, 2016 By Angela Olson Matthews Leave a Comment · Print recipe ·

I first tasted Whoopie Pies a few weeks ago, and soon thereafter learned that they are Maine’s official “state treat”.   I liked them but I thought I would like them even more if I made them myself.  I studied various recipes and this combination is my favorite. It is not as cake-like as others I…

  There is nothing better than a cookie, and to me this one is exceptional.  This recipe was made by my dear friend and neighbor Cindy.  She is my first friend to choose a recipe for Mead Meadow, bake it, and deliver warm beautiful cookies for the photo shoot.  It has been adapted from a…
