    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       01/07/2011   Does this really make only enough for four cookies? I'm planning to double it already!

English has so many complex words and is one of the most difficult languages to master with all the different nuances to the many words. Please try to be more tolerant and less impatient with other contributors.

    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       02/26/2010   Flavio-When used in cooking, the term decandent means "luxuriously selfi-indulgent". It's so delicious and rich, I shouldn't be eating it, but I can't help myself! I hope that helps!  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       02/26/2010   Hi! It's the second time I see the adjective "decadent" being used in a recipe in this site. As I only know the rather negative meaning of "marked by excessive seld-indulgence and moral decay" (which is hard to apply to recipe ingredients), I wold appreciate it if someone could enlighten me with its possible sense in this context. Thanks to you all.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       02/26/2010   Walker's shortbread cookies are good - but so is homemade shortbread - and homemade is really easy.  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       02/16/2009   I think you could make your own cookies, and spread the filling and put 2 together,that way you could have the cookies you like and the good filling!!  
    
    Martha Stewart Member     Rating: Unrated       02/16/2009   I don't generally buy store bought cookies because the only brand I could ever choke down was Pepperidge Farm. I guess you could give them a shot. Good luck!

self-indulgent is what I meant.

Flavio-When used in cooking, the term decandent means “luxuriously selfi-indulgent”. It’s so delicious and rich, I shouldn’t be eating it, but I can’t help myself! I hope that helps!
