Peanut Butter Cookies (Gluten Free)Over the years I've gotten requests from clients for gluten free baked goods.

Cream PuffsAbout 6 years ago I took a French Patisserie baking course through a local cooking school. I learned to make puff pastry, baba au rhum, palmiers and pâte à choux. Since that time I have only ever made a pâte à choux for gougères one time. All those hours in a classroom and I haven't done a thing with it!For those of you who are not… |
