Yield Makes 24 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup whole wheat flour
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon table salt
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
1/4 cup turbinado sugar

Steps:

  • 1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flours, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt.
  • 2. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar on medium speed until the mixture is light yellow and fluffy, about 3 minutes. With the mixer on low speed, add a third of the flour mixture and 1/4 cup of water. Mix for 30 seconds. Repeat this step once, then add the remaining flour mixture and mix just to combine. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead by hand for about 10 seconds. Divide the dough in half. Cover one half with plastic wrap and set it aside.
  • 3. Place a sheet of parchment paper on a work surface, put the dough on the parchment, and top with a second sheet of parchment. Roll the dough out to about 1/8-inch thickness. Repeat with the second half of the dough. Chill the dough for about 30 minutes.
  • 4. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • 5. Remove the dough from the refrigerator, peel off both sheets of parchment, and put the dough on a cutting board. Using a square cookie cutter, cut out the dough, rerolling the scraps twice. Put the cookies on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Sprinkle each cookie with a pinch of turbinado sugar.
  • 6. Bake, rotating the sheet halfway through, for 20 minutes, or until the cookies are a dark golden color around the edges. Let cool for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Categories     Desserts     Cakes

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 cups graham cracker crumbs
¾ cup ground pecans
½ cup cake flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup packed light brown sugar
3 egg yolks, room temperature
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup milk, lukewarm
3 egg whites, room temperature
¼ cup white sugar
2 tablespoons white sugar
1 ½ cups unsalted butter, softened
½ cup packed dark brown sugar
½ cup heavy whipping cream
¾ cup confectioners' sugar
½ cup chopped pecans

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and line with parchment two 9 inch round pans.
  • Combine the crumbs, 1/2 cup pecans, flour, baking powder, and salt.
  • In a large bowl, cream the butter and the light brown sugar until fluffy. Slowly beat in the egg yolks, one at a time. Stir in the vanilla. Alternately add the milk and the crumb mixture while beating on low.
  • Beat the egg whites in a bowl until foamy. Add the sugar slowly, and beat to soft peaks. Fold into the crumb batter, and pour into the pans.
  • Bake for 25 minutes, or until a tester comes out clean. Cool in the pans on a rack about 10 minutes, then invert and cool completely.
  • To Make Frosting: In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the 2 tablespoon sugar until it turns golden. Remove from heat, and add 4 tablespoons of the butter; swirl. Whisk in the dark brown sugar, and place back on the heat. Bring to a boil, stirring all the time. Add the cream, and bring back to a boil. Boil 1 minute, and remove caramel from heat.
  • Place the confectioners' sugar in a large bowl, and mixing on medium speed, slowly drizzle in the caramel. Beat until the bottom of the bowl is just barely warm, about 5 minutes. Add the remaining 1 1/4 cups butter, 1 tablespoon at a time. Beat until smooth, and chill frosting until ready to ice the cake. Frost the cake, and press the pecans into the sides.
