Cookies are made of butter and love. |
| Norwegian Proverb |
"When treasures are recipes they are less clearly, less distinctly remembered than when they are tangible objects. They evoke however quite as vivid a feeling-that is, to some of use who, considering cooking an art, feel that a way of cooking can produce something that approaches an aesthetic emotion. What more can one say? If one had the choice of again hearing Pachmann play the two Chopin sonatas or dining once more at the Cafe Anglais, which would one choose?" |
| Alice B. Toklas |
Part of the secret of success in life is to eat what you like and let the food fight it out inside. |

Food Tip |
Preheat oven to 425 F (220 C). Grease several baking sheets with
butter. In a medium-size bowl beat 1/4 cup butter with powdered sugar
until creamy; beat in vanilla. Gradually beat in egg whites. Fold in
flour, then 2 tablespoons melted (cooled) butter. Drop small
teaspoonfuls of mixture onto prepared baking sheets, spacing well
apart; flatten each teaspoonful slightly. Bake about 8 minutes or
until lightly browned around edges. Using a spatula, immediately
remove cookies from baking sheet to a wire rack; cool. Melt
chocolate in a small bowl placed over a pan of hot, but not boiling
water. When cookies are cool, spread each one with a thin layer of
melted chocolate; allow chocolate to set slightly then sprinkle with
coconut. Place in a cool place until chocolate sets completely.
