Haute Hot Food

Only for the adventurous in eating that want to tantalize their taste-buds and make food dance on their palate.

For I am not afraid of letting the food
overtake my desires, nor am I afraid of letting my desires be my food. Food is my expression, not just my livelihood. Cooking is my art, not out of responsibility, but purely out of passion.

All in a days work...someone has to do it



Alright, today was one of those days that you enjoy immensely and wish it wouldn't end.  Coffee with a new friend, created a new cookie (that I adore), and had a wonderfully entertaining lunch tasting all it as to offer with fabulous people, then an afternoon of sheer enjoyment!  I know, I know......you just want to know about the cookie.  Well, take a look and thank me later.  Ferrero Rocher, eat your heart out.....

***You might as well double the recipe, or it shall leave you craving more and no crumb in sight


 Chocolate Hazelnut Melt Aways
1/2 c. sugar
1C. Flour
1 Egg
1tsp vanilla
1/4c. shopped hazelnuts
1/4 c good quality milk chocolate, finely chopped
1c. Chocolate Hazelnut Spread

Preheat oven to 350.  Mix dry in a small bowl and combine it with wet.  Fold in chopped chocolate and nuts until combined.  Shape into 1" balls and flatten out with the bottom of a glass.  Bake 7-8 minutes and let cool completely.


Only for those......
