https://masterfacilitator.com/65xqzogdiu https://serenityspaonline.com/xcjdra2iwvo A beautiful floral tasting cookie.

https://www.ngoc.org.uk/uncategorized/future-events/lazlbbq70f Don’t these cookies look like I robbed the little flower girls’ baskets at the royal wedding last weekend? Well I didn’t; they came from my yard.

https://fireheartmusic.com/a8onb1p My alarm was not set for 4:00 a.m. but my recorder was and once I was awake I turned it on and did a pretty quick catch up to the main event.

If you didn’t know, there are quite a few edible flowers and I use them often. Once I used nasturtium flowers for a sauce to go over fish and it was very delicious. Here is my short list of edibles: Angelica, bachelor buttons, calendula (marigold), carnation, dianthus, chrysanthemum, citrus blossoms, English daisy, fuchsia, gladiolus, hibiscus, impatience, jasmine flowers, Johnny jump ups, lavender, lemon verbena, nasturtium, pansy, rose and violets. Well, that wasn’t actually a short list but the list I keep on my phone when I’m out looking for flowers.

https://space1026.com/2024/01/wt27udwa Wouldn’t the flowers be beautiful on top of an English trifle or a bowl of ice cream of as a garnish on any dessert? I dried my flowers in my food dehydrator until they were a little crisp. If using as a garnish no need to dry them out. Here’s an article on drying flowers in the oven.

Divide the dough in half and wrap in plastic wrap for one hour. After an hour, toll dough on floured surface to 1/8-1/4″ thick.

I used a 2″ fluted cutter for the cookie and then a smaller one to cut out the centers. I rerolled that dough into the remainder of the cookie dough.

Sable Cookies with Flowers

Ingredients
  1. 2/3 cup (5.2 ounces, 150g) best-quality salted butter, at room temperature
  2. 2 teaspoons flaky sea salt, such as fleur de sel or Maldon
  3. 4 large egg yolks
  4. 1 cup (200g) sugar
  5. 1 3/4 cups (210g) all-purpose flour
  6. 4 teaspoons aluminum-free baking powder
Glaze
  1. 2 c. powdered sugar
  2. 1 1/2 Tbsp. meringue powder
  3. 3 Tbsp. water
Instructions
  1. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, or by hand in a bowl with a sturdy silicone spatula, cream the butter and salt together on low speed until smooth, about 30 seconds.
  2. 2. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks, gradually adding the sugar while whisking, until the yolks are light and fluffy – about a minute. With the mixer on low, add the egg yolks to the butter, stopping the mixer to scrape down any butter clinging to the sides so it all gets incorporated.
  3. 3. Sift together the flour and baking powder in a small bowl, then stir that into the creamed butter mixture until it’s completely incorporated. (Don’t overmix it.)
  4. 4. Pat the dough into a rectangle about 1-inch (3cm) thick, wrap in plastic, and chill for an hour. (The dough can be made up to five days in advance, and stored in the refrigerator.)
  5. 5. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Have a pastry scrape or thin metal spatula handy.
  6. 6. Cut the rectangle of dough in half and place one piece between two large sheets of parchment paper. Roll the dough until it is between 1/3- to 1/2-inch (1,25cm) thick. Peel off the top piece of parchment paper and, using a 2-inch (5cm) round cookie cutter, cut out circles of dough, place them on the prepared baking sheet at least 1/2-inch (2cm) apart. You may need to coax them off the parchment with the pastry scraper or spatula.
  7. 7. Roll the second piece of dough, cut out circles, and put them on the other baking sheet. (Scraps can be gathered up and rerolled to make additional cookies.) Chill the baking sheets of cookies in the refrigerator or freezer until firm.
  8. 8. To bake the cookies, preheat the oven to 350ºF (180ºC). Adjust the oven rack to the middle of the oven.
  9. 9. Beat the egg in a small bowl with the teaspoon of water. Remove one sheet of cookies from the refrigerator or freezer. Brush the tops of the cookies with the egg wash then use a fork to cross hatch a pattern on the tops of the cookies. Bake the cookies until the tops are golden brown, about 15 minutes, rotating the baking sheet in the oven midway during baking.
  10. 10. Remove the cookies from the oven and let cool on a wire rack. Once baked, the cookies will keep for up to four days in an airtight container.
  11. For the glaze: Mix 2 cups powdered sugar with the meringue powder and whisk in the water a little at a time until you have the consistency you want.
Notes
  1. I omitted his last glazing instructions with egg white and opted to put a powdered sugar glaze on top and decorate with dried edible flowers from my yard with some pearl sugar and a few toasted almonds.
