    I’m sitting in Borders with my knitting group and they’re oohing and ahing over these…

    I could have used even more salt! http://spikebakes.tumblr.com/post/3933777326/salted-butter-break-ups

    A great week to have such a simple recipe, right? Just keep adding more salt!

    “I think we need to reevaluate fun. Fun is not breaking one of these cookies with a swift punch. Fun is hopping a plane to the Poitou-Charentes region of France, for a tranquil vacation of lounging in the sun, slurping oysters, sipping Cognac, and eating buttery, butter with a pedigree, croissants. Not necessarily in that order or during the same lounging session.” Read my post and you’ll understand!

    These were tasty! I used matcha (green tea powder) to turn half of mine green for St. Patrick’s Day! ;-)

      Red, I want to leave comments on your blog…but don’t have a wordpress blog (so no account)…is there another way to do this? your cookies look great!

      • RedsKitchenDiaries March 18, 2011 at 2:57 PM #

        thanks! I don’t think you need to have a wordpress blog, it just asks you for your regular e-mail to leave a comment (I think it helps reduce spam)

        • Lola's Kitchen March 18, 2011 at 8:15 PM #

          I’ve tried to leave a reply too but it says I have to have an account. Your cookies DO look great.

    A buttery, flaky, sweet and salty winner :)

    I really liked Dorie’s suggestion for serving these. Even though I just broke them up myself.

    I really liked these. It’s funny that my favorites from this book are the desserts when I’m much more of a cook than a baker.

    A delicious buttery cookie, that I will be making over and over again! Loved it!

  36. Sweetbites March 18, 2011 at 1:43 PM #

    Yeah.. i have made it a total of six times in less than 4 days.. pretty much tells you how this cookie was received at our house… the seventh batch is in the oven as I write this….ADDICTIVE!

    I paired these with butterscotch pudding and butter pecans for a dessert platter that is very manly. Yes, MANLY.

    • tammycirceo March 18, 2011 at 3:40 PM #

      I thought of pairing it with a chocolate pudding! But I do think that a butterscotch would be wonderful.

  38. Beth@omgyummy March 18, 2011 at 2:09 PM #

    I am doughaphobic so as easy as this dough seems, I’m nervous. I just put the dough in the fridge but had to use 3 or 4 more teaspoons of water than the recipe called for for it to come together at all. I’m nervous. Will report in when I can.

    • Beth@omgyummy March 18, 2011 at 8:43 PM #

      So despite the MANY mistakes I made even with such a simple recipe (the water was cook’s error – never read a recipe upside down), I just took them out of the oven and even the slightly over-cooked edge tastes great. Can’t wait to eat them later dipped in melted chocolate. Will try to post something by Monday. Have to focus on my brother’s 50th bday party now… Have a great weekend everyone.

    CHEESE BREAD

    Sorry! I’m still playing catch-up. I’m going to make the breakups this weekend :)

    I’m sooo excited. They looks so good!

  41. Nina March 18, 2011 at 2:17 PM #

    These were such a homerun. We LOVED these! Have made them many times and they ship beautifully!!! I rolled extra salt in mine, perfect!! This was a winner.

    I put my own spin on these cookies. I made a Barney Butter Frosting and turned them into Barney Butter and Jelly Break Up Sandwiches :)

    Enjoyed making these and enjoyed the taste of them after they had fully cooled and sat a bit …

    This week’s recipe was really fun. It was a treat to have a sweet week. I couldn’t resist adding a little more fleur de sel on the top. Loved the salty, sweet crunch. It was gone in no time!

    Loved it! And right on time for a change:)

    These were so good! Definitely making a double batch next time!

    So, as it turns out, breaking up is easy to do. Not to mention delicious!

  55. tricia March 18, 2011 at 7:06 PM #

    Split decision. Nana loved and I was a bit disappointed…but only because I expected them to be the best food ever created :)

  56. Jennifer March 18, 2011 at 8:18 PM #

    Mine were delicious… but not all that salty. More/stronger salt next time.
    Also, feeling ice cream as a perfect accompaniment.

    I couldn’t resist adding a little nutella and a little jam to mine.

    http://thegingersnapgirl.blogspot.com/2011/03/french-fridays-with-dorie-salted-butter.html

  62. ebessen March 19, 2011 at 8:05 AM #

    I enjoyed the edges of the cookie where it more browned and cooked a bit more then the center. My center was a bit thicker then the rest. My hash marks did stay but did not look anything like the picture in the book. I like the idea of eating it with nutella on top.

  64. Carla March 19, 2011 at 11:36 AM #

    My sea salt was a fine grain, so I didn’t pick up the saltiness as much. I’ll just have to make these again using more salt ;) http://chocolatemoosey.blogspot.com/2011/03/french-fridays-with-dorie-salted-butter.html

  65. Connie March 19, 2011 at 12:05 PM #

    These are great. Not to sweet, but very satisfying.

    A day late, but happy with the results. I love the straight-up butter taste and the hint of salt…My kind of dessert!!

    Very nice…and I still can’t decide if it is a cookie or a cracker! http://grandmaskitchentable.typepad.com/grandmas_kitchen_table/2011/03/french-fridays-with-dorie-salted-butter-break-ups.html

  68. Lola's Kitchen March 20, 2011 at 12:17 PM #

    Loved it so much I had to do it again. This time I served it for dessert following Beggar’s Linguine. Its a great combo!

  69. InsomniMom-Shelley March 20, 2011 at 2:33 PM #

    Wow, these were really easy to make and very good! I’ll make them again, but use less sugar and a pinch more salt. I broke off a piece and ate it with a slice of Swiss cheese and a handful of grapes…deeeelish!

    I made mine Friday but got sidetracked and didn’t post on time. Sorry! I guess I was also sidetracked while making these as I scored mine totally before realizing that I was supposed to put the egg yolk wash on before scoring. Thankfully an easy enough fix…I simply flipped it and started again. I didn’t find scoring with a fork to be a problem as some did. After breaking up I did drizzle a few cookies with carmel sauce and that was quite tasty. Next time I make I am going to make mine thinner as I prefered the crispier edges to the thicker center portions. One thing for sure, there will be a next time!

  71. MaggieM March 20, 2011 at 4:11 PM #

    I think mine “caught” my bad mood LOL — they don’t look pretty, but taste ok: http://bks4maggie.blogspot.com/2011/03/ffwd-salted-butter-breakups.html
    I agree with some of the earlier posts about more salt — I’ll try that next time!

  72. stephsbitebybite March 21, 2011 at 12:57 PM #

    Absolutely loved these!! http://www.stephsbitebybite.com/?p=1629
