Rose, when you have a moment (which I'm sure is never these days) could you please answer a question for me? I made biscotti yesterday (from the Christmas cookie book). It was a bit of a challenge to slice it b/c it was very "crumbly" making it fragile and difficult to handle. I managed to do it however and only broke about 5 of them. Is it supposed to be this fragile or did I do something wrong? This is the first time I made biscotti b/c I am not a big fan of it - too brittle as you said. When I read your recipe though and you said it was not brittle I decided to make it. We loved it. The best biscotti I have tasted! I liked the orange flavour and the hint of almond extract. A perfect marriage....

Late to the party, but I've made cupcakes from the White Chocolate Whisper Cake in The Cake Bible. Divine!

I'd like to have recipes for cookies like the vanilla wafers and thin chocolate cookies that you suggest crumbling for pie crusts. I don't like all the industrial cooking additives in the commercial products. I do have a recipe for graham crackers, but what about the vanilla and chocolate
cookies? Thanks for your help.

Tyler,
I'm sure Rose will have a good suggestion for you, but I have to add that I made Chocolate Domingo cupcakes earlier this year, and they were probably the best I have ever had--no icing needed.

I have another question. If I made a your regular buttercream, would it be able to be kept out on a cake plate during the day without refrigeration? And what degrees does it stand up to without melting? Oh, and do you have a preference of your favorite chocolate and vanilla cake to bake into cupcakes?

yes, fine to use the royal icing on the baked cookies. i don't know how to answer your first question as obviously with all the ingredients different it is no longer the same.

I have a question about your sugar cookie recipe. Is it the same as your stained glass ones, except with different ingredients, cooking times, and thickness? And, the royal icing recipe in the cake bible; is that alright to use to ice the cookies?

I rely heavily on recipes from your Rose's Christmas Cookies for my annual cookie baskets for family and friends. I'm having trouble rolling the Moravian Spice Cookie dough as thin as the commercial versions I've eaten. I was rolling with a wooden rolling pin on a flour-dusted marble surface. Once it got to a certain thickness, it seemed to resist rolling any thinner. Would a cloth-lined rolling pin and a cloth work surface make a significant difference in how thin I can roll the dough?

Do you have sugar cookie helpful hints for using an electric mixer. In the past I mixed by hand and the cookies were moist and fluffy. Now I'm older and need the help of a Kitchen Aid mixer. I have tried adjusting my recipe, but could use some advice or a brand new recipe for mixer method sugar cookies.
thanks
