Fear not, I haven't abandoned Baking Beta. It's been a particularly busy week at work, so I have been coming home not feeling the baking. Creative juices have not so much been flowing, except for when I decided I wanted to make shortbread on Thursday night.
Speaking of shortbread...
Shortbread is a beautiful thing. Three pure and simple ingredients combine into a delicious cookie. Butter, sugar, flour. That having been said, I've been tempted to experiment with the age-old recipe and make somethings a little bit bolder. Namely, peanutty ginger shortbread. I envision this going something like so:
flour
ginger powder
I want to try this, but I am afraid of the result.
That's where you fine folks come in. Please, send me some feedback. Comment with something YOU'D want to try making or eating haven't quite worked up the nerve to. I'll pick one or two and give them a try.
Help a sister out--I can't brains today. Has teh dumb.

Much as I would love to try said peanut butter shortbread, you asked for other suggestions, so here's mine.

I'm thinking they'd be something akin to a biscuit (in looks) but much sweeter, and with a nutty taste to them. Good with savory food on the side (cheese, meat, etc.).
