Blogmas #8 | RECIPE - Chocolate Oat Cookies

I thought I would share with you another cookie recipe. This one happens to be my favourite. It is a recipe by a lady called Ruth of ThePinkWhisk.co.uk.

Ingredients

▪ 110g Softened Butter

▪ 110g Caster Sugar

▪ 85g Light Soft Brown Sugar

▪ 150g Plain Flour

▪ 180g Rolled/Porridge Oats

▪ 200g Chocolate (chopped into small chunks) or Chocolate Chips

▪ 1 Large Egg

▪ ½ tsp of Baking Powder

▪ ½ tsp of Bicarbonate of Soda

▪ ¼ tsp of Salt

▪ ½ tsp of Vanilla Extract

Method

1. Preheat your oven to 190°c (fan) | 200°c | Gas Mark 5

2. Line your baking tray/s with non-stick baking paper.

3. In a medium sized mixing bowl, cream together the butter, caster sugar and light soft brown sugar with a wooden spoon.

4. Add in the egg and vanilla extract and mix well.

5. Now mix in the flour, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda and salt.

6. Now add in the rolled/porridge oats and mix again.

7. Finally add in the chocolate and mix well.

8. Now roll the dough, by hand into 1½ inch balls and place them on the baking tray, well-spaced apart, as the dough will flatten and expand whilst in the oven. The dough should make approximately twenty-four cookies.

9. Bake them in the oven for 8 minutes, until the edges are lightly golden.

10. When baked, remove them from the oven and leave them to cool for 5 minutes and then transfer them onto a wire rack to cool completely.

Will you be using this recipe to make some delicious cookies?

Serial Sampler #17

I chose this sample as my free gift with purchase and I hadn’t heard of the brand before. It happens to be part of a series of four fragrances and they are all unisex/genderless. The designs of the full sized bottles are very interesting and artsy. Looking at the four, had I been able to pick which one to receive, I most likely would have chosen the one called 10am Flirt as it seems the fruitiest based of the four. The sample I have is Santal Sky by KIERIN NYC and it is a 1.5ml spritzer sample of the eau de parfum. “Intertwined like vines, we stroll through Central Park. Leaves release their woody fragrance. Under a canopy of trees, in the center of it all, we are a million miles from city life. Music from impromptu drum circles, the rhythm of runners’ footsteps, diverse languages fill my ears like poetry. This retreat into nature refreshes my soul. The sun smiling down upon us, I pull my loved one close. In synchronicity we breathe.” It contains a mixture notes, such ...

Perfume Power! - Harajuku Lovers 'G'

I received this perfume as an Easter gift from a family member. The bottle design is really cute. It has a doll figure cap, which lifts off and the actual bottle is clear and simple glass, it kind of has a flower shaped base. The size I have is very small, so it is handy for your handbag. And I suppose you could keep the doll for collector’s purposes, when you have used up the perfume. The fragrance notes are:- Top Notes: Crisp Mandarin, Fresh Coconut & Apple Skin Middle Notes: Jasmine Sambac, Soft Freesia & Magnolia Vapour Base Notes: Coconut Cream, White Sandalwood & Cottonwoods To me it smells really strong for an eau de toilette. I quite like the scent because it is very feminine and quite sweet. The only thing I don’t like about it is the coconut. I don’t really like the coconut scent anyway. Other than that, it smells amazing, until the coconut hits your nose. I can also smell the floral side to it as well, the coconut does complement the flor...
