Decadent Tortes – Links and Pictures to Recipes

To simplify the search for my favorite recipes posted in my blog, I am creating groups of related recipes for everyone’s convenience.

This way you can go to one post where you will be able to view all the pictures of the recipes under that group and click on the link provided for the recipe you are interested in.

I think you will appreciate the time saved searching for recipes in my very broad selection which continues to expand further.

Kolachky – Slovak Cookie Recipe

Even though many Ukrainians love making Kolachky, I have been informed that the recipe actually traces back to Slovakia.

My sister in-law loves making these, and shared her recipe with me, so now I am working on perfecting these as well.

They are so light, flaky and delicious.  You can fill them with fruity jams, lekvar or poppy seed filling, but I am convinced that the walnut filing is the best in taste as well as keeping the shape of these cookies during baking time.

Pecan Tartlets – Recipe

These Pecan Tartlets will leave a memorable impression on your dessert plate and everyone’s palate.

Cream Wafers – Cookie Recipe

My next few posts will include the cookie recipes I introduced in my Christmas cookie post.

I am starting with my favorite cookies, the Cream Wafers.  If you read the ingredients, you might not be able to envision how decadent these really are. They are very light and flaky, resemble a puff pastry, and practically melt in your mouth.
