Projo Football Food & Spirits

The Steelers' cookies were so good, we're going for greater New York's. In Long Island, where Newsday has a food stylist's slideshow of 'em, including the enticing Chocolate Shortbread (yum) and Stained Glass Cookies (made with Life Savers candy) at right.

Recipes at Sylvia Carter: Cookies make Christmas.

We'd steal the Daily News's Cookies from around the world too, but grinding almonds, frying dough and finding a half-cup of passion fruit puree just looks too hard tonight.

Oops: More intriguing, perhaps, is this New York Times correction, in its entirety:

Recipe: Back Forty

Published: November 28, 2007

Correction Appended

Adapted from Back Forty (a restaurant in the East Village)

Time: 5 minutes

4 teaspoons maple syrup

2 ounces bourbon

1 ounce lemon juice

3 to 5 dashes orange bitters

Lime wedge for garnish.

In a cocktail shaker, mix syrup with 2 teaspoons hot water. Add bourbon, lemon juice and bitters. Add ice and shake. Strain drink over ice in glass. Garnish.

Yield: 1 drink.

Correction: December 5, 2007

A recipe with the Pairings column last Wednesday for a Back Forty cocktail misstated the amount of orange bitters that should be used. It is three to five dashes, not three to five ounces.

Try this on pancakes?
