Baking with comfort . . . pure and simple ingredients . . . there is nothing in this world so delicious!
A Roll and a Biscuit in one! Mix, cut, bake and serve with plenty of butter.

Blending a Hollandaise sauce mixed in a blender is every bit as delicious as a Hollandaise sauce made by the traditional French technique AND it is much easier to make!
One of the classic French sauces, Hollandaise sauce is the classic butter sauce made from the emulsion of egg yolks and butter flavored with lemon juice. It is the perfect sauce for fish, vegetables, and Eggs Benedict.
Most often the sauce is made in a double boiler. Although, a double boiler is very helpful for many recipes. Making the sauce in a double boiler by the traditional French technique may result in a curdled sauce. It’s tricky!
Blender Hollandaise sauce is a safer bet. I have yet to see it separate or curdle!
Tips:
Old World style - New World ease!
In blender, combine 3 egg yolks, salt and pepper.
Remove blender cap and slowly pour in 1/2 of the clarified butter in a thin stream while blender is operating.
Add Lemon juice, mix.
Add remaining clarified butter in a slow stream while blender is operating.
Add 1 T. of warm water at a time to bring the sauce to desired consistency. Continue to mix until the correct consistency is reached.
Taste and adjust seasonings as necessary.
Loving Pink Hearts, the perfect expression of love for your Valentine! It’s not too late to bake a batch!
Growing up in Louisiana, we baked the Plain Roll-Out Cookies in the Cook’s Tour of Shreveport. For every holiday and in between, we made triple batches of cookie dough and went on week-long cookie decorating binges. Billie Apple said, “There was blue icing on the ceiling!” It was everywhere, but my mom loved to see her girls baking in her kitchen.
In all of my years of baking cookies, I have never found a better plain roll-out cookie recipe!
