Anna recently made a display of some very enticing baking cookbooks. I’d like to buy all of them. The one that caught my eye is titled One Girl Cookies. The recipes all sound delicious. The one that I am dying to make is Chocolate Chip Pistachio Pound Cake. The best (or perhaps worst) part is that I have all ingredients at home to bake this. I’ve got plans for the weekend….baking!
One Girl Cookies, the bakery, first opened in Brooklyn in an area of town known as Cobble Hill. Shortly after another location opened in an area known as Dumbo. After flipping through the cookbook, I can see why a second location was in demand.
Cookies, among other treats, are popular at One Girl Cookies. Their cookies have names such as: Lucia, Jane, Florence and Evelyn. These bit sized cookies are displayed in the cases with these pretty names attached. Which would you order?
Lucia: Espresso Caramel Squares with White and Dark Chocolate Swirl
Jane: Cream Cheese Shortbread with Toasted Walnuts
Florence: Winter Spice Cookie Sandwiches with Orange Cream
Evelyn: Almond Spirals
Cookies are a small part of this cookbook. Other sections include: cakes, whoopie pies, cupcakes, pies/tarts, breakfast pastries and a section with family recipes. The recipes all call for few ingredients and are fairly easy to make. This would be a great cookbook to pull from your bookshelf to bake something for your last minute guests.
The above pound cake is what I’m going to make first! It is the chocolate chip pistachio pound cake I mentioned earlier.
Come pick up a copy of One Girl Cookies and satisfy your sweet tooth! -Quinn
