I actually baked with Lisey!
On Tuesdays, I post a picture and just a few words.
One of my goals for this year was to help Joshua and Lisey get their neglected blogs back up and running.
(That's part of the reason Joshua and I are doing the 52 project together.)
Anyway...Lisey and I have had plans to bake together since the start of the year, but we've kept on getting derailed.
Yesterday, though, the stars aligned, and we made some hermit cookies, which we'll be posting on her blog soon.
So, yay! We got re-started, and I think that's sometimes the hardest part.
We love hermit cookies! Especially with a cup of tea mid-afternoon:)
I have never heard of hermit cookies, but they look divine! I will have to check out sweet Lisey's blog 🙂
Yay! Looking forward to Baking with Lisey again.
So fun, look forward to see what Lisey has in store for us!
Yummo -- hermits! No one out west knows this wonderful delicacy -- they look delicious!
I'm in Seattle and I grew up here with Hermits. One of my favorite cookies.
So need to get on top of this goal with my smalls. They love cooking, baking and food prep and I'm always in such a hurry to get everything done that I forget to slow down and include them. Does it matter if we eat 30 minutes later? Nope. Spending the time teaching them now is the only way to go. Thanks for the reminder!
That is my EXACT same struggle. It's the extra time it takes and so it helps me to put it on my to-do list. Then I feel more like I'm accomplishing a task, and that helps my task-oriented brain to manage the extra time better!
Her blog is beautiful! Good job both of you.
I don't love hermit cookies, but I did like looking at her blog! We will definitely try the macaroons!
I've never had them before...and actually, neither has she! They're very strongly molasses-flavored, so I think I like them a little less than gingersnaps. But they are super chewy, which I do like.
Lisey's blog is so fun! I will try making cinnamon cakes sugar-free since her recipe is so easy and I'm sure it can be adjusted. Looking forward to more cooking ideas!
Suggest Lisey tries the Flaky Buttermilk Biscuits that were in the December 2015 (I think) Cooks Illustrated. They are incredibly good, and a bit more time consuming than the usual biscuits. You grate partially frozen butter into the flour mixture, and then do a light kneading that involves folding the dough like a business envelope. They get raves from everyone. I have made them with regular milk as well and they are just as good.
Kristen,
I made a chocolate chip cookie pie of Lisey's many years ago and am distraught that I can't find the recipe. I noticed that her blog is no longer available. Is there any chance you have her contact info or know if it was posted elsewhere?
I'm so sorry it's not there anymore...I migrated my blog and somehow didn't manage to communicate that I wanted Baking With Lisey moved as well. And so everything got deleted. My apologies!
What has happened to bakingwithlisey.com??? I loved her chocolate chip pie! And now it appears her site is no longer available! Ugh!

I can't get to Lisey's blog for the recipe . I tried your link & search engine.
I have been searching for Lisey’s peanut butter oat bar recipe but can’t find it online anymore. Would you happen to have it?
