This iconic whiskey is a "Jack of all trades" when it comes to cooking. Toss it in some pasta, as a savory dipping sauce, and even bake it into something sweet.

1-2 hrs
ingredients
3 large hard-boiled egg yolks, crumbled
1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup cake flour
1 cup confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons sugar
1 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons dried lavender florets
Glaze
1 large egg, beaten with
1/2 teaspoon salt
Rolling
1/3 cup sugar, PROCESSED WITH
2 teaspoons dried lavender florets
directions
Beat yolks, flours, sugars, butter, vanilla and salt in bowl of electric mixer set on low speed until smooth, about 1 minute. Mix in florets.
Separate dough into three sections. Wrap in plastic; chill until firm, about 30 minutes.
Heat oven to 375 degrees F.
Remove one-third of dough from refrigerator. Roll dough with about 2 tablespoons lavender sugar to uniform thickness of 1/4 inch. Cut into rounds using 2-inch cookie cutter.
Place on baking sheet splashed sparsely with water (the resulting steam releases baked cookies very easily), leaving about 1 inch between each. Lightly brush each cookie with glaze.
Chill 10 minutes; bake until firm and lightly golden, about 7 minutes. Repeat with remaining dough and lavender sugar.
cook's notes
Edible flowers are safely purchased from specialty produce markets. Remember the lavender florets need to be removed and separated from the stem.

Keeping a can of frozen orange juice concentrate in the freezer means you can make more than just orange juice. Try it in a variety of orange-flavored recipes.
The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.
