This is my copy of a dessert that I ate at a restaurant the other day. It was quite dark in the restaurant and my eye sight was not very good, but the dessert looked like this. My copy tastes pretty close to the original, which cost $12. Well, if you make it by yourself, …
I have a great recipe for ‘Oats & Banana Cookies’. They can be made with No Egg, No Flour, No Dairy. The binding ingredient is Ripe Banana, so they taste Banana. The other day, I wanted to make Cocoa flavoured Oats Cookies, but I didn’t have Banana. So I made a new recipe. You need …
I have a very precious Gingerbread recipe. I often made Gingerbread Men with my children when they were young. But I don’t remember when was the last time. Today I made the proper Gingerbread for the first time in many years, but I couldn’t bother cutting it out into shapes. I rolled the dough into …
This recipe was a result of an accident. First it started when I tried to make my ‘Very Sweet American Style Chewy Choco Chip Cookies’. I believed that I had a bag of Chocolate Chips, but I didn’t. So I added Peanuts instead. Because I added Peanuts, I added some Peanut Butter as well. The …
This is No-Dairy version of my ‘Soft Lemon Cookies’. I used Sunflower Oil instead of Butter, and I increased the amount of Flour as I used a Whole Egg today. These cookies turned actually crispy unlike the original Soft Cookies made with Butter. If you prefer softer cookies, take them out early. Makes 22 Cookies …
My ‘Melting Moment’ cookies are custard shortbread, that is made with Custard Powder. Since I discovered that good quality Custard Powder contains only Corn Starch, Salt, Flavour from Milk, natural Yellow Colour from the Achiote tree seeds and nothing artificial, I have been using it to replace Corn Starch, and also to add yellow colour …
When you crave something sweet just for yourself but have nothing, a mug cake is a good option if you have a microwave. Most mug cakes can be made in five minutes. I have shared a variety of mug cake recipes on this website. Here is another recipe for you to try, but it’s not …
I have been always interested in American style flat looking Chocolate Chip Cookies. I have compared those recipes with my own recipe. The major differences are the amount of Flour and the amount of Sugar. American recipes require much less Flour and a lot more Sugar. None of the recipes that I checked uses Self-Raising …
The other day, I added leftover Cream Cheese to my Lemon Cookies. Cookies were not sweet enough. That’s because Cream Cheese was added, and also I added extra Flour as the dough became awfully soft. Adding extra Flour was a bad decision. I should have cooled the dough in the fridge. The very soft and …
Old fashioned Buckwheat Cookies are still available to purchase in Japan. Store-bought Buckwheat Cookies are mostly likely made with Buckwheat Flour and also Wheat Flour. These cookies are made with 100% Buckwheat Flour. You can smell Buckwheat while you are baking them. I would enjoy these cookies with Green Tea, but some people say Hōjicha …
The other day, I realised I have never used Bananas for Cookies (except for Oats Cookies and Muesli Bars). What would happen if I added Banana to the cookie dough? So I tried with my Basic Cookie Dough recipe, replacing Egg with mashed Banana. Cookies turned quite soft as expected. Today I tried again. I …
I made Black Forest Cake for my son’s birthday and there was some leftover whipped Cream. To use up leftover whipped Cream, I often make ‘Instant Chocolate Mousse’. This is another good way to use up leftover whipped Cream. Mix about same amount of whipped Cream and Greek Yoghurt, sweeten the mixture as you like, …
