When it rains I think of bakeries, hot Mochas, and favorite books. As I drove down the 101fwy in heavy rain I could smell fresh baked goods. The first thing I do when I get home is open up my baking books. My first attempt at this recipe was awful. I had to find another book and give it a 2nd go. These came out so good with a soft buttery cake texture with crispy edges. I dusted them with powdered sugar and drizzled a warmed up jar of Trader’s Joe’s Wild Blueberry Preserves. You can find the recipe in the Baking Cook Book by Dorie Greenspan. There is a section of the recipe she says to mix with your fingers the sugar and lemon juice, I decided to give my Kumquats that are growing crazy on my tree right now a go in replacement. I love the hint of orange in these, it is prominent and I say give it a try instead of lemons.
