Rose Water Glaze

Rose Water Glaze

Another variation on America’s Test Kitchen’s all purpose glaze, I like their use of cream cheese, it helps mellow the sugar. This variation is just right to go on a flavoured cookie without overpowering it. If the cookie is more of a neutral flavour, there’s room to intensify the glaze with more rosewater.

Pink lemon flavoured decorating sugar. This recipe is from a class I took at L’Academie de Cuisine called “Holiday Gifts from the Kitchen”. Taught by Joel Olson

Cinnamon sugar

Cinnamon sugar

A childhood pantry staple, funny I never knew the ratio of cinnamon to sugar. This is one of those “it’s here so I have it handy” recipes.

Cardamom sugar

Cardamom sugar

I used to add a couple grinds of cardamom and a squeeze of honey to my hot cocoa, or my oatmeal (porridge) or cream of wheat, then my cardamom grinder broke (yes, I hear myself), and I think the other grinder (really, I do hear myself) is at the office, and it’s lockdown, and I don’t want to buy another “thing” right now, so I gave this a go.
