Today is March 12, it’s Auntie Joan’s birthday, and that reminded me her Orange Marmalade was getting old. Auntie Joan gives us a jar of her homemade Marmalade every year, but we don’t eat Marmalade. So, I use it to make cakes such as ‘Orange Marmalade & Whisky Pound Cake’. Today I made these Cookies instead, using my basic cookie recipe replacing Egg with Joan’s Orange Marmalade. I also replaced some Flour with Rolled Oats. This is how I made them.
