Speculoos cookies have that charm only a traditional recipe can bring, steeped in history and with a spiced touch that evokes the holidays. Originating from Belgium and the Netherlands, these crunchy, flavorful cookies are made with a blend of spices that gives them an aroma as distinctive as it is irresistible.

Baking cookies is child's play, and these delicious almond and orange cookies are proof of that: with very little and in very little time you'll be enjoying some delicious cookies. If you serve them with or dip them in chocolate, the combination will be even tastier. Claudia's word.

A few days ago, we shared a post where we explained how to make royal icing for cookies. Christmas is here and it's the time to put it into practice! Simple decorations for Christmas cookies, but defined and elegant. That's what we want to focus on in this post. I hope the ideas for making Christmas cookies that I bring you today inspire you to prepare some beautiful, homemade, and original cookies.

I make these butter cookies filled with chocolate at home every week. I stopped buying the supermarket ones when I learned that industrial cookies weren't entirely healthy, especially those filled with cocoa creams.

Did you know homemade cookies can last up to a month in perfect condition if you store them properly? That is, as long as you don't get distracted and the little ones (or some older kid in the house... ahem!) don't play mouse and eat them first.

Baking cookies is one of my favorite pleasures. It's easy and also quick, since the dough requires very little mixing and the baking takes little time (about 15 minutes). Kids enjoy it too, you make sure to eat quality ingredients and, if you make them in batches, you have reserves for days.

There are many reasons to bake cookies at home: the cold, wanting to give someone a gift, spending a pleasant time with the little ones in the kitchen or simply enjoying a homemade sweet. This time Rosa, author of Pemberley Cup&Cakes, offers us a staple that can't be missing at this time of year: the most delicious gingerbread cookies recipe you can make. Bet you can't resist?

Making cookies at home is a great pleasure, and they're really easy to make! The recipe Virginia (from Sweet&Sour) shares today — chocolate and hazelnut cookies with a touch of orange — is a guaranteed success. Go for it!

I am filled with joy when December arrives. Christmas is approaching, a time of year I love: thinking about family meals, those meals that sometimes end up as dinners, and also seeing the excitement of children when they wake up and run to look beside the tree.

At the doorstep of November we can already see Christmas approaching. Since many of us like to start thinking ahead and gathering ideas to make the most of the Holidays, Carolina, from the blog La cocina de Carolina, is giving us a taste with these cookies—100% Christmas air! Although you know as well as I do that you can start making these cookies right now, because they are as distinctive as they are delicious. Don't resist!

I still remember the surprise I felt when a very dear relative showed up with three huge packages. And to my greater surprise, it was a Set that I loved: it was the WMF Maya the Bee cutlery Set. I’m not talking about just anything: a ceramic Set with beautiful prints, the cutlery made of very good-quality steel, and all the pieces an ideal size for children.

Today Beatriz, author of To Be Gourmet, gives us her opinion on an item that's an indulgence as sweet as the cookies you make with it: the cookie stamps from Nordic Ware! I know it's hard to get an idea of how well they work or how great they look without having them in front of you, but believe me, they are stamps you'll fall in love with!

Today Beatriz, author of To Be Gourmet, brings us a small temptation in the form of a cookie, perfect for accompanying coffee, enjoying a mid-morning snack... or satisfying a craving!
