After a two-week hiatus, our happy baker is back! And boy, is she back with a vengeance - making up for lost time with a MotherLoad of cookies in one day!
The first tray out of the oven contained crunchy rich chocolate peanut butter cookies.
Comfort food that will take away all your blues.
Our Baker's Tip: If you want extra crunch, toast the chopped peanuts on an aluminium-lined tray in the oven for about 5 to 10 mins before putting them in the batter. Alternatively, you can use chopped up honey-roasted peanuts for a little caramel sweetness.
The second tray out of the oven - yummilicious chocolate almond cookies, which has both dark and white chocolate, plus plenty of crunchy almond slivers.
Our Baker's Tip: It's amazing how rich and fragrant unsweetened cocoa powder can be, especially if you're using a good brand like Hershey's - which is what I used here. But it's good news for chocolate lovers all round!
The third and final tray out of the oven was a tangy zingy citrus delight - our favourite orange cookies. Definitely a nice break from all the rich chocolate and nutty stuff.
Our Baker's Tip: Fresh oranges are such versatile building blocks. From bars and brownies to cakes and the simple, unfussy orange cookie. The tiny candied citron pieces as decoration add a little zing.
