Hi Dorie, I bought a copy of the original French version of the Marseille book from you August list and made the cauliflower dish. What fun! And the book is fascinating. Thanks for the reminder about the rosemary parmesan cookies. I had marked it as unread to look at later and later is now. I have a piece of fresh parmesan that I bought for another recipe and what's left just might turn out to be enough for the cookies. Joyeux Noël et Bonne Année!

Thanks Dorie, these sound divine. Can we roll the rosemary parm cookies in a 1.5 inch diameter log, freeze, and slice and bake to a similar effect at a future date??

Love getting your newsletter, it’s always so informative!

This year I am exploring scones as gifts for my friends. We are all aging and limiting our intake of refined sugar, and I have a basic recipe that uses only 1/4 cup sugar for 12 scones, not a bad ratio at all! So I’ve been having an exciting time developing flavors like cranberry ginger, and chocolate cherry almond scones to appeal to individual tastes. It has been a joy to experiment, and my husband hasn’t minded eating all the test batches, even if they aren’t the greatest!

Have wonderful and joyous holidays with love!

I feel the same, Dorie! The end of the year came too swiftly. But what a great recap of 2023 cookbooks -- it was certainly a year of incredibly creative work! Happy holidays to you and the fam.

Hi Dorie,

I have a question unrelated to the post; I have an egg allergy, so what could I substitute for egg to make frangipane? Thanks.

Dorie, I tried making your Double Decker Salted Caramel Cake, from Baking with Dorie. I pulled the cake out of the oven at 44 minutes, when a tester came out clean. As the cake cooled, the center fell. So I made a second cake, baked it for 50 minutes, and again a tester came out clean. Again the center fell. What am I doing wrong? Thanks for any help in solving this mystery!
