French cookies/5 recipes

My mother and I made these cookies when I was little, many years ago, using the box of dry mincemeat. I have looked for years for the recipe, they are the best cookies ever!!!

Cheesy juicy stuffed chicken breasts filled with bacon, ricotta and swiss cheese, pan fried until golden and served with a lemony white wine sauce.

Indulge in the delightful warmth of Irish Ginger snap cookies, with a rich history and a perfect blend of spicy ginger and sweet flavors.

Turned out very well. I seasoned the chicken on both sides with salt and pepper before dipping in the flour and egg. The thin sauce added a nice tang. I also added a teaspoon of cornstarch blended in water to the sauce and cooked for about one minute to thicken up the sauce a bit.

This authentic French Canadian recipe is a classic belly warmer and perfect for a cold day. Split-pea soup with a ham bone, ham hock or salt pork. Make it a vegetarian split-pea soup by leaving out the ham bone and using vegetable stock instead of water.

Chocolate shouldn't go together with "low-fat" but this decadent recipe will change this fact!

An Eastern European pastry with a rich history and cultural significance. They are traditionally made from a simple dough consisting of cream cheese, butter, and flour, and filled with sweet fillings like jam, nuts, or cheese.

The easy-to-make, classic green bean casserole with french fried onions.

These cookies are buttery and flakey, love the walnut filling that gives the cookies just enough nuttiness and sweetness. Well balanced flavor, and cute little pockets, just can not have enough of them.

These turned out perfect—crushed candy canes make them nice and crispy on the outside, with a soft melt-in-the-mouth explosion on the inside. I was really impressed a bit like shortbread with a minty twist.

Gluten-free cookies made with peanut butter, chocolate chips and chickpeas (garbanzo beans). Give it a go, and you will be surprised by how delicious these sweets are.

So quick and the cream sauce was spectacular. Just a hint of mustard and the fresh herbs really brought it to life. I cut down on the cream and it still made plenty of sauce. Worthy of licking the plate clean, although I used some french bread to sop it up!

Beef tips marinated in red wine. Pancetta (or bacon), garlic and onion. Simple flavors highlighted by earthy mushrooms, simmered long and slow.

These are so easy to make and are delicious!

Traditionally baked during 'Sinterklaas', a feast on 5 December (6 December in Belgium and Germany) on which little children receive gifts from the holy St. Nicholas, the partial inspiration for Santa Claus. In Germany, Pfeffernüsse are traditionally made during the Christmas season.

This recipe deserves at least 5 star, it is that good. Made it for dinner last nigh. The sweet-sour sauce was a hit, perfectly balanced flavours and textures.
