Recipe Post 2017 N0.14- The Cookie Club

Hello world!

Transiently, I have taken a fancy in improving and adapting my expected baking posts. Don't take this the wrong way,I take very much delight in composing posts where I write up recipes of my pick, bake them and display them for all of you to view. For example, my last post was very enjoyable and I derive great pleasure from arranging big bake-offs,exhibiting the finale in a  different manner to what I'm accustomed to. However, I less occupied with schoolwork as I'm on vacation,giving me more excuse to bake.  With that,I have created Cookie Club!!The cookie club is devised of  my favored cookie recipes, at the moment being three. To clarify the constituents of the club, each member (cookie) shall hold its own nickname and individual photo shoot,suitable to all occasions.  Without any further ado, let's dive straight into the recipes!

My first and foremost cookie recipe is Chocolate Dipped Strawberry cookies. You'll need:

210g of unsalted butter

330g of light brown sugar

1 large eggs

1 teaspoon of vanilla essence

390g of plain flour

2tsps bicarbonate soda

100g of strawberries,hulled and roughly chopped


Baking in the making:

Preheat oven to 170 C/150 C/ Gas Mark 4.

Cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.Incorporate the egg and the vanilla essence,mixing well. Fold in the chocolate chips and strawberries (leave a few aside to press into the top of the cookies).

Roll the dough into balls(approx 2 tables per cookie). Press gently with your palms so they are slightly flattened, and press some extra chocolate chips and/or strawberries on top.Place on lined baking tray-be sure to space them out as they enlarge in size when being baked. Bake in the oven for 17 minutes.

Allow to cool for a few minutes on the tray before transferring to a cooling rack,allowing them to cool completely.

Melt the chocolate,dipping half the cookie into the chocolate. Rest the cookies on non-stick paper, garnishing cookies with sprinkles, if desired.  Here, I bring to you Strawberry Sprinkle!

To accompany Strawberry Sprinkle in the Cookie Club is Wild Blueberry Oatmeal Cookies, a MORNING delight:

2 medium bananas,mashed

162 grams of rolled oats

24 grams of plain flour

10g of dried blueberries

54 grams of coconut oil,melted

1/8 of teaspoon of salt

2 tablespoons of honey

2 tablespoons of chia/hemp seeds

Method:

Preheat the oven to 180 C/ 160 C fan/ Gas Mark.

As before, line a baking tray with baking paper,setting aside.

Within his medium bowl, combine everything,mixing well. Put in a tablespoon or two of plain flour if you feel the mixture is too shaggy and difficult to mould.

Using your hands, shape the dough into cookies,baking for 23-25 minutes, till the cookies are a shade of golden,to some degree and cooked through. 

I name this cute cookie Wiold(Wild and oat combined). If you can brainstorm a better name, express your ideas in the comments below.

I've made Strawberry Sprinkle...I've baked Wiold but we need one more to at least create a trio for the Cookie Club. Who else shall conjoin with the two other cookies?

100g of flour(unless you know the alternative of white flour in the UK...)

50g of plain flour

a pinch of baking soda

2 lemons

50g of brown sugar

50g butter 

1tsp of vanilla extract

Method:

Blend all dry ingredients in one bowl. Zest one lemon, gradually add the butter. Carry on adding enough lemon juice to form a dough.

Allow the dough 30 minute resting time.

Briefly flour the working surface,roll out the dough. Use your cookie cutter to staple out the cookies.

Align them onto the baking tray with baking paper. Bake for 10 minutes.


As the cookie require "beauty sleep" before being baked, I name this cool...Sweet Dreams which I find amusing as lemon is the most sour fruit you can consume on its own.

    1. Of course I'll check out your post! To reply to your comment about being pen pals....I would love to! I apologise for the really late response. I believed I had only viewed your comment a week ago and by then you probably wouldn't be interested to the idea but...if you'd like, we can pen pal...perhaps in the next couple of weeks...?😏

  8. Hey, Read my testimony! Getting ex back after a breakup. My boyfriend of a 2 year just broke up with me and am 28 weeks pregnant. I have cried myself to sleep most of the nights and don’t seem to concentrate during lectures sometimes I stay awake almost all night thinking about him and start to cry all over again. Because of this I end up not having energy for my next day’s classes, my attendance has dropped and am always in uni and on time. Generally he is a very nice guy, he ended it because he said we were arguing a lot and not getting along. He is right we've been arguing during the pregnancy a lot. After the break up I kept ringing him and telling him I will change. I am in love with this guy and he is the best guy I have ever been with. I’m still hurt and in disbelief when he said he didn't have any romantic feelings towards me anymore that hurt me faster than a lethal syringe. He texts me once and then mainly to check up on how am doing with the pregnancy, he is supportive with it but it’s not fair on me, him texting me as I just want to grieve the pain and not have any stress due to the pregnancy. I was really upset and I needed help, so I searched for help online and I came across a website that suggested that Dr Ahmed can help solve marital problems, restore broken relationships and so on. So I felt I should give him a try. I contacted him and he told me what to do and I did it then he did a spell for me. 28 hours later, my boyfriend came to me and apologized for the wrongs he did and promise never to do it again. Ever since then, everything has returned back to normal. I and my boyfriend are living together happily again.. All thanks to Dr Ahmed. as it is a place to resolve marriage/relationship issues, do you want to be sure if your spouse is being faithful to you or Do you want your Ex to come back to you Contact.: E-mail: Ahmedutimate@gmail.com call him on: +2348160153829 save your crumbling home. I suggest you contact him. He will not disappoint you.
