My wife was intrigued by the sea salt on the cookies. I should never open this thread after midnight. Rich, the sea salt on the chocolate chip caramel cookies is coarse sea salt and coarse sparkling sugar 50/50 mixed together, I then put about 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon (I don't really measure but that would be the approximate amount) on top of the cookies before baking. The cookies are in round mounds when I put the sprinkling on, so quite a bit does fall off on the sides of the parchment paper. The cookies themselves have chocolate chips and the caramels are the little round caramels bites. But the real secret is the dough recipe itself...I use four different types of flour in the dough itself. For the Almond Joy ones I actually use Almond and Coconut Flour as well, so it gets 6 types of Flour instead! As for being on the Adams team, you definitely are Have Darlene send me a PM on Facebook...as I would be willing to share some of my baking secrets with her so she could share with you... mc2hill and Rich 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought was getting good news about a pending knee surgery so figured would risk the pain to enjoy some baking...I did regret it later. But am happy that people did get some cookies. Next time will have to contact you all and send you some. Rich and mc2hill 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fish is nobody’s favorite because they either serve not so fresh fish. Fish that is fresh has no smell to it and is tasty. I’m also not a fish person because most places serve caca lol but not me, it’s to die for lol. Yo-Yo Ma's Cousin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it was the years living in Alaska, but fish is my preferred food, which is probably noted from most of my food postings. There is nothing like starting the grill and then catching the salmon to put on it. You can get fresh fish, including pacific Halibut and Salmon in South Carolina as long as you plan and are willing to pay. ocdrifter 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The meat pole is the same thing they use in the Middle East for Shawarma's. They are either Lamb or Chicken. I've not seen its use in Mexico. I guess 18 years working in the Middle East was too much!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liralen Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 (edited) Oh man...nothing since October? Time sure flew by...Here is a Baby Yoda cake I made, all items from scratch...the outer shell is modeling chocolate (which is made from chocolate wafers/candy melts & corn syrup), frosting/filling was a very vanilla true buttercream (not american), eyes were gelatin (so could be eaten), and cake was a golden vanilla. He was 7 or 8 layers, 8" diameter at the base, and stood about 12-15" tall (I forgot to measure his height)! Next time I am going to make lime cake with lime curd filling & vanilla buttercream!

Liralen Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 Time sure flies! Tried my hand at another cake for a friends birthday...it is a Sandworm from a Nightmare Before Christmas! Even the big open mouth is cake covered in modeling chocolate...the "sand" is crushed up biscoff cookies! The bottom is three layers of vanilla butter cake & homemade swiss meringue vanilla buttercream.
