One pleasure that stands out for me in 2012 was finding and following Savuer and listening to your editor on BookTv. Happy New Year.
Oatmeal Lace Cookies
This recipe, from blogger/photographer Noah Fecks of The Way We Ate, appeared in our 2012 Cookie Advent Calendar. Noah says: "I can't resist making these cookies year after year. Each one bakes up really light and crisp, making a pleasant alternative to heavy and buttery holiday treats. If you want to get crazy-pants, you can dip them in melted chocolate, and sprinkled with sea salt, for a decadent lacy crunch."
