Hi Geoff I’m a 31yr old truck driver who loves baking/cooking I find you videos so interesting & easy to follow I must have tried nearly all of them lol you really inspire me to try these thing and my Mrs & Kids love it also cause of all the cakes lol
Hello Geoff. Really enjoyed the video. These are to try for sure. We love almonds here in Algeria. Most of our traditional cakes are made with almonds. Thank you so much.
I would be most interested if you can state the names of some of your almond cakes so I can look for their recipes too! I live in southeast México. Thanks in advance
Hi Geoff! My mom is from Holland and we are now in Canada. We used to find these cookies in the grocery store every now and then but we can no longer find them. I am trying these tonight. They look exactly like the ones she used to get us. Thank you for the recipe!
Hi Jaquelynn, I do hope you enjoy them and that they are similar to what you remember. I usually visit Canada every year, but not this year due to the current crisis. When there, in Nepean(Ottawa) I always visit Dutch Grocery & Giftware which sells some lovely foods not available generally.
Hi Raeschimmel. I must admit that I don't like to leave anything in the bowl, if it is supposed to be in the recipe. I am glad you are enjoying the recipes and thanks for subscribing.
Hola Geoff, while I am usually suspect of people named Geoff, it must stem from being punished as a child for grammar errors and spelling mistakes. I am sure you understand why Jeff vs Geoff makes me suspicious. But I dropped my guard for you and have had my heart melted by “the European Bob Ross of RUclips cooking” as we call you around our home. You must be a lady killer with skills like this. Aloha, Genna
Hi Geoff ...you always find interesting recipes ...i think these would go well with some stewed apricots ..or something with a bit of tartness to it , can't wait to have a go ...xxx♡♡♡
Hi Gillian, thanks. I have another Dutch recipe to come, gevulde speculaas, stuffed speculaas which a a spiced one, especially for St Nicholas day, yesterday but is ideal at Christmas time. Will be doing that in the next day or so.
@@geoffsbakingblog One of our favorite treats in South Africa is Koeksisters. They are super sweet, but very delicious and almost addictive. Here is a link to the recipe and method if you'd like to try it and if you like it, you can make a video tutorial. ruclips.net/video/pqxSx3ho1Lg/видео.html
Made yesterday and was allmoust like the one i ate in holland. I belive i should not put egg yolk in the paste filling so it remais uncooked and i try with baking powder also unnessessery , and next time i will defnetly try with almond extract because the almonds we get these days are not so fresh. I have to give you manny thunbs up my good man for sharing this and for the blog, good vibes.
Fantastic recipe , nice with a mug of tea ...could you put raspberry Jam in with the almond paste or Lemon curd ? Or would that ruin the outcome . Hugh and Sir Barney
Hi Huge & Sir Barney. Thanks very much. I think a little raspberry jam, stirred into the almond paste would be fine. I wouldn't use lemon curd, since that contains fat which might not work so well.
Thanks for the video. I see you have over 1000 subscribers now. Very good. I suppose one could avoid the problem of dividing an egg in half by just doubling all ingredients and using huge bowls for the mixing.
Hi Miranda, yes there are several things I really dislike, oily fish such as salmon. I eat white fish such as haddock and cod only. I dislike coffee and anything flavoured with coffee and also cooked cheese. Other than those I like most things, but I don' t eat very spicy food though I like a little.
@@mirandadanjou4578 Hi Miranda, I don't really have a favourite dessert. But if I had to choose it would be between Lemon Meringue Pie and Sticky Toffee Pudding.
@@mirandadanjou4578 Oh you should try it, so delicious. I have a recipe on my blog from years ago. I haven't made a video of it, maybe I need to do that soon. geoffsbakingblog.blogspot.com/2014/10/lemon-meringue-pie.html
Hello Geoff: I do like your baking and very gently English accent to let us understand what you say. But can't you put the mic hanging lower on your shirt or put in somewhere seems more better, because your breathing is very strong as well ! Thats why we feel uncomfortable. Sorry about to let you know my family's feeling and >> Thanks your share :) :)

Hi Gaza, that's great! I am glad that your family enjoy what you bake.
My friend told me Gevulde Koeken ,so I made them watching your video. Easy to understand and delicious! Thank you from Japan.
Hi Tomo.N., That is great. I am so glad you made tem and enjoyed them.
Mr Cooper,
I baked your recipe yesterday, was just lovely! The stuffing was just perfect and crunchy yet soft crust. Thank you for sharing :)
Hi Sarah, that's great. I am glad they turned out well for you. Thanks for letting me know.
Hello Geoff. Really enjoyed the video. These are to try for sure. We love almonds here in Algeria. Most of our traditional cakes are made with almonds. Thank you so much.

@@geoffsbakingblog Next time I go to Ottawa I will make sure to check it out! How do you recommend storing them?
@@jaquelynnroque3269 I would store them in an airtight container, they should keep for 3-4 days. They can also be frozen after baking.
@@geoffsbakingblog Awesome! Thank you!
Love watching your videos. Thank you.
Hi Connie, thanks very much. You are most welcome to watch as many as you wish.
I love how you don't waste a scrap! It really bothers me when batter etc is left in the bowl and utensils. Love your recipes. New subscriber.

Ok sir thanks for an instant reply God Bless You
Hello Sir h r u? Too good recipe inshallah tomorrow I will try this,but with spicy minced meat can I do this ?
Hi, yes minced meat should be ok, as long as not too much fat will leak from the meat.
Thanks for the video. I see you have over 1000 subscribers now. Very good. I suppose one could avoid the problem of dividing an egg in half by just doubling all ingredients and using huge bowls for the mixing.
LOL yes, and having more cookies.
is there anything you do not like? fruit or vegetable or spice... I hate tomato for example
