This is an interesting dessert. I am not sure if you'd call them cookies, cakes or bars but they would be lovely with tea or coffee. They are delicious jam filled sweet treats. I found these in an old cook book and am not sure where the name comes in :)

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready to go. This will help you stay organized and prevent any scrambling later on.
  • Use fresh ingredients: Whenever possible, use fresh ingredients for the best flavor and nutritional value. If you can't find fresh ingredients, frozen or dried ingredients can be a good substitute.
  • Season your food: Don't be afraid to season your food liberally. Salt and pepper are essential, but you can also add other spices and herbs to taste. A little bit of acidity, such as from lemon juice or vinegar, can also help to brighten up a dish.
  • Don't overcrowd your pan: When cooking meat or vegetables, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the food from cooking evenly and will make it more likely to stick to the pan.
  • Use the right tools: The right tools can make cooking much easier and more enjoyable. A good knife, a cutting board, and a variety of pots and pans are essential for any home cook.
  • Be patient: Cooking takes time. Don't rush the process, or you'll end up with subpar results. Let your food cook slowly and carefully, and you'll be rewarded with delicious, flavorful dishes.

Conclusion:

Cooking is a skill that anyone can learn with a little practice. By following these tips, you can create delicious, healthy meals that your family and friends will love. So get in the kitchen and start experimenting! You might just surprise yourself with what you can create.
