They’re very versatile; you can add almost any combination of things to them. I decided that toffee and white chocolate chips pair together really well, so I thought, why not throw them into some oatmeal cookies? The toffee melts a bit while it bakes, mixing in with the rich white chocolate chips and soft, chewy oatmeal cookie base, which has a hint of cinnamon and nutmeg. These cookies are absolutely heavenly, believe me!

I brought them into work and everyone seemed to enjoy them, and I also gave some to my brother and a friend. They’re perfect to mail as a gift, too, because they stay soft for a good amount of time. Combine the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, and nutmeg and set aside. Beat together the butter and sugars, then add in the vanilla and eggs, one at a time. Add in the flour gradually. Fold in the oats, then the white chocolate chips and toffee bits. Enjoy! Toffee White Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies. CakeSpy. Ice Cream Sundae Brownies. Hi everyone! Hope you had a great weekend.

How to Make Marshmallow Fondant. This time I decided to make it with those mini fruit flavored marshmallows. I had to sort them by colour first. I figured they would add a little bit of flavor to the fondant so I wouldn't have to add much flavoring oil. I use gel colours to dye my fondant but regular food colouring will work too. You won't be able to get really dark colours without making your fondant sticky, but for lighter colours you can just even it out with more icing sugar.

I also had lemon oil and coconut flavoring on hand.. oh la la the value brand (which still works fine). Step One: Take a couple of handfuls of marshmallows and put them in a microwave safe bowl. I like to make smaller batches because its easier to add the colour to the melted marshmallow than it is to work the colour into the fondant later. Step Two: Stick the marshmallows in the microwave for ten seconds at a time until the are puffed up and easily stir into a goo with a wooden spoon. Step Three: Step Four: Fondant with the icing sugar kneaded in. Vintage Teacup Sugar Cookies. I love finding teacups in the thrift store by my house. Sadly, even though they are cheap I can't really justify buying all the ones I want because I only want to own as much as I can display and use.

Cups like this one.. Or this one. Hope that you go to good homes pretty teacups! I'm not too sad though, I have a lot of my own adorable tea stuff. For instance, these are my cups and elephant teapot and milk jug. My tea-for-two pot with two teacups underneath .. .. ..and last but not least my milk and sugar containers with cupcake tea spoons in them. Nothing goes better with tea than some cookies so I made some teacup templates based on the cups I've seen. Templates are the easiest thing to make. To ensure that your cookies don't spread too much during baking its best to pop the unbaked cookies into the freezer for 20 minutes or so. Iced with royal icing and ready to have with a cup of tea. Cute! Mrs. D Loves to Eat! Chocolate Puddle Cookies Recipe. I came across a cookie when I visited Portland a couple years back. It was a crackle-edged puddle of chocolate with a texture that made me think of a collision between soft meringue and a fudgy brownie.

Flour, butter, sugar and eggs are the most important ingredients for a baker. And I’ve been having a hard time for the past few days because we have been faced with a short supply of butter in the market. Yes, butter. The butter I have been wanting to drench my toast with (topped with Nutella, even better!). The butter I wanted to use for herb butter mushrooms. The butter that makes everything better (watching Julie and Julia has its influence, alright!).

I was itching to bake and I could not for the life of me find a way around this (no butter substitutes, please).
