On the second night, the remaining sauce finds itself tossed with penne and topped with more Parmigiano Reggiano. Tomatoes & Sausage
I added coconut, pecans, ritz crackers and chocolate chips to my cookies. To compensate for the oily coconut, I reduced the butter by about 4-5 tablespoons. And, I think I’ll do the same next time. (Even if I choose different snacks and sweets.) Momofuku Milk Bar’s Compost Cookie […] |
