[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you have a favorite simple base recipe that you like making and then altering lots of different ways? Mine is a basic shortbread cookie recipe. It's only got 6 ingredients and comes together in 10 minutes. I've refined my own version over the years but it's based on the America's Test Kitchen one and one from Sally's Baking Addiction. Foolproof.

I can make a plain version if I'm having company and just want something sweet to serve after dinner with coffee or I can mess around with it -- chocolate chips and salted caramel drizzled on top (DD's favorite) or grind almonds in with the flour and add some chopped cherries. A favorite is to cut some of the suguar and add a smidge of olive oil plus chocolate chips and rosemary -- great for people who don't like super sweet desserts.

Anyway I love that i can make it pretty much anytime and that it's so easy to adapt for the occasion.

Do others have a favorite base recipe that is their go to and that can be easily adapted? Would love to get some ideas here. What's the base recipe and how do mess with it? What are your favorite versions?[/quote]

Why would you start this post and not include your own recipe? You’re asking others for theirs; include yours. You talked all about it but nothing. [/quote]
