Part II of this week's "Treat of the Week" sees the return of a family favorite dessert, after a beautiful entree.
Lovely tender cheese tortellone were adorned with a thick, creamy sauce of tomatoes and pesto with pancetta and perfectly-seasoned mushrooms.
Beautiful little salads of fresh greens, cucumbers, tomatoes, olives and carrots were topped with more pancetta and imported provolone cheese.
It really was a delightful meal, and, I enjoyed a second helping. However, I made sure to save room for dessert which was the return of my favorite cookie!
Of all the many, many cookies which I adore, if I had to rescue just one kind from a burning building (just go with it), it would be these enormous ginger cookies. Soft and chewy with a delightful tang of ginger, these cookies sparkle with a dusting of demerara sugar. Chewy and thick, these sturdy (not crumbly or crumby like a lot of cookies) cookies both keep and travel well.

Yummsy! Two great 'treats' in a row! We should have one every day!
I remember cookies like that from my childhood. I haven't had anything as good since.
The cookies look so pillowy and nice. They look like they'd be very comforting. I want.
Mmmm... ginger cookies are great!
Oh man that looks good!!
I love tortaloni. That sauce looks great. COokies are beautiful!
Looks fantastic!!!
Another hit!
I would enjoy all of it, but really the cookies most of all. I'd like one with a big cup of coffee right now.
I always love the treats. They make me hungry.
Looks scrumptious!
