Moose Palmiers are a fun treat for the kids. Embellish store bought palmiers for a quick party treat or decorate homemade ones.

Becky is coming home from college tonight. I haven’t seen her since I left for Cambodia so I’m really excited. She’s also bringing her boyfriend. I’ve not met him yet so there’s that new experience.

I thought I’d surprise them with some treats. It’s been really busy so I didn’t have a lot of time to throw things together. That’s always the case at this time of year isn’t it?

Palmiers are one of my favorite cookies. I love the caramelized sugar and flakey pastry together.

The grocery store had some palmiers on sale so I snagged a box. As I looked at them, they kind of reminded me of moose horns. It’s the time of year when they could be reindeer antlers too.

I also need to clean out my fridge so I can stuff it again. I’m roasting a turkey for Christmas day and baking some more desserts. I happened to have some ganache in my fridge so I used that for these cookies.

Ganache can be pretty hard when it’s refrigerated. Mine was already in a ziplock bag. The end of the bag was clipped because I used it to decorate some cookies. I softened it by putting the bag of ganache in a second bag, sealing it, and setting it in some hot water for a few minutes.

Once it was soft, these moose palmiers went together fast. I squeezed out ovals of ganache onto the palmiers and smoothed them with a spoon. You could just use a spoon to make the ovals.

No need to be perfect, these cookies will disappear too fast for anyone to notice any imperfections.
