At the weekend I ticked off another two recipes from ‘Baked in America’, Cherry Cheesecake Brownies and Maple/Oatmeal/Raisin cookies.

The brownies were a big success, great texture and went down really well at work. In future I’d definitely soak the cherries in kirsch overnight. The cookies couldn’t be chilled (due to fridge space issues) so they didn’t have the right shape, but the texture and flavour is great. The icing was a bit soft so got smudged in transit.
