Taught a great Holiday Pies and Tarts class on Thursday; the petite pecan chocolate tartlets with the cream cheese crust were especially tasty out of the oven. Did some pie crust troubleshooting with students – a perennial challenge for aspiring bakers.
Must be November – time to start working flat out…between today and Monday I am fulfilling orders for 130 bags of sugar cookies, 15 dozen mini tarts, 8 dozen toffee bars, 4 dozen raspberry thumbprint cookies with toasted coconut, and 12 dozen almost flourless chocolate bites. Looking to next week to start organizing for Thanksgiving orders…
