Sweets for the Sweet!

Today is the birthday of a dear friend, Susan from Savoring Time in the Kitchen! My gift is a crisp, moist & chewy Hazelnut Chocolate Chip cookie from Giada! Another sweet friend, Jayne from A Grain of Salt was kind enough to send me some hazelnuts since I was not able to find any in the boonies where I live!


Hope you have a wonderful day, no one is more deserving!

I live in the boonies too, remember? In our area they are sold by Gurley's and are called filberts not hazelnuts but are the same thing.

Great cookie for Susan's birthday!

Those look great, Barb! Susan sure will have a sweet birthday :)

My dad always called them filberts but I see them labeled hazelnuts.

Aw, that is sweet :) Hey, it's my birthday, I can eat all the dessert I want today, right? I love hazelnuts and I'm sure I would love these!

Thank you so much, Barb!

Barb, the cookies look delicious ... I'm sure Susan will enjoy them.

The nuts are called filberts around here, too.

That cookie sounds great Barb. I love hazelnuts. So just how far out in the Boonies do you live? :-)
