The degree to which this - a Salade Nicoise, sans tomates - is, in fact, a Nicoise salad remains debatable. What is incontrovertible is that, while I won't eat out-of-season tomatoes, I'm not waiting around until next summer for the league leader in salads-as-meals, and this, my Jack Frost version extant, still tastes damn good.

Submitted by a professional caterer, I knew these would be amazing, but hands down, these are the best ginger snaps I've made to date. The fresh ginger adds a special zing you just can't get in powdered ginger.
I love, love, love these potato chip cookies. They've got a shortbread base with the extra salty, crunchy flavor of the chips. Tasters loved these cookies as well. The bonus is that they're amazingly easy to make.
There's a lot going on in these little cookie cups -- shortbread, nuts and chocolate chips. Tasters were mixed on their affinity toward them, but if you're a shortbread fan, it's worth trying these intriguing little treats.
