Look like oatmeal cookies but no! Are you looking for a cookie recipe with few ingredients? Something you can bake when the cupboards are bare! I love this Fannie Farmer knockoff for its simplicity. The taste is snickerdoodlish with packed goodness of raisins and nuts. Change it up with dried cranberries or chocolate chips if you prefer.
Cutting back can still involve pasta. At least that’s what we think! When weight starts to hang on it’s time for action, but there’s no giving up Pasta Sunday’s.
Still in search of the best Malted Milk Chocolate Cupcakes and yet to find a clear malted taste. Even after the addition of malted milk powder the chocolate smothers the taste in so many recipes. So, I refer you to this cupcake recipe. I find has the best malted taste so far. For the frosting … yes, adding malted milk powder does give it a more malt taste. Just add a bit of malted milk powder to your chocolate frosting recipe … hold up on some of the cocoa. Give it a taste test (add more malted if needed) until it has the flavor you’re after. Here’s the frosting recipe I used and just added the malted milk powder to taste. (You will need to add more liquid for the frosting consistency.) Enjoy!
Pasta Sunday + Super Bowl= Fried Ravioli. You still have time and it’s easy. Grab your favorite ravioli, cook according to directions Drain and you’re ready. (This recipe was tried without precooking the ravioli and I noticed an appreciable difference but others didn’t.)
One skillet spaghetti recipe and you have dinner for 6 hearty eaters in 30 minutes! Hey, this is a great Super Bowl dish. It tastes great, and who doesn’t like spaghetti! And another plus, it’s not messy to serve … just spoon it up.
When you’re eating late in the day and want something to take the chill away but not leave you feeling heavy and stuffed, try this! So much taste and easily changes up to vegan. Just substitute vegetable both and tofu. Easy! Makes up in minutes!
What a surprise! My first bite … between fudge and brownie … Not too sweet chocolate flavor with roasted nuts. Chocolate Salami is an Italian and Portuguese favorite. But I have to admit while I lean to the Portuguese side I did add Amaretto instead of Port. Your choice of liqueurs is extensive. Just make it something that goes with chocolate and coffee. Exactly … What doesn’t? Not into a liqueur? Just add a little more coffee in its place.
I came across this dessert at a family reunion. Other foods from that wonderful day I have yet to try my hand. These are coming soon.
Pastéis de Nata
Bolo Levedos
Grandmother Rose baked these in the fall and winter months. They’re great any time! Chewy and fruity.
Grandma always become distracted when baking these. She was a multitasker. Cookies would then over brown … fruit oozing through the pinwheel on the bottom would burn. Be careful not to do this or these cookies will be a bitter disappointment, literally.
A Good Luck Dish for the New Year!
It’s not too late! Goes together in minutes. And it’s darn good! Yep, having this again this year. I love it!!
This is great just as a side salad with burgers too.
