I'm sorry you had so much trouble. Mi...Oh no. I'm sorry you had so much trouble. Mine turned out very crispy - so much so, they break almost instantly upon contact. It was fairly dry here so I let them sit out all night and the softened just a smidge, but still very crispy. Here's a tip I like to tell my students - use a large pastry bag (18 or 20 inches). You won't have to refill it and the extra length prevents oozing out the top (a rubber band helps too).<br />Patricia @ ButterYumhttp://www.butteryum.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6755224022149560047.post-26022976020339906272016-04-06T22:54:50.788+09:302016-04-06T22:54:50.788+09:30Catherine, not only do your posts make my day, now...Catherine, not only do your posts make my day, now they increase my vocabulary! I had to look up "hubris"-what an appropriate word to define nearly all the Alpha baking from my end. I think I should have it printed on a cook's apron. This was the recipe I've long dreaded because...piping... as well so very glad it's over. That was smart to make half the recipe into round shapes.
