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?

Perfume Power! - Taylor Swift 'Wonderstruck'

Photo: HerWorldPlus.com I actually received this as a free sample size (1.2ml), but I decided to do a review anyway, because you get enough of the scent to be able to give it a proper review, like you would a bottle size. * Click here to see what the sample looks like * The bottle design looks very pretty and definitely something I would love to have. The charms around the neck also look lovely, but MissBudgetBeauty bought it in 30ml and it didn’t have the charms, so the charms must be exclusive to the bigger sizes, which is a shame seeing as though I tend to buy 30ml, unless I really love the scent. The fragrance notes are:- Top Notes: Freesia, Green Tea, Blackberry, Raspberry & Apple Blossom Middle Notes: Vanilla, Honeysuckle & Hibiscus Base Notes: Musk, Sandalwood, Amber & Peach It does smell really nice and not as young as you would expect, it reminds me of a fruitier Loverdose by Diesel, without the liquorice. I can smell the peach, raspberry...

Review: Rimmel Wake Me Up

Wake Me Up Foundation I bought this after seeing the advertisement for it on Rimmel’s Facebook, and I thought the description sounded perfect for me. The packaging is made of glass and it has a curved shape, with the Rimmel logo and product name printed in the centre on a bit of plastic tape. The cap is a slanted block shape made of plastic and it is a bright orange colour with glitter sparkle. This product has an orange plastic pump, which dispenses the product. All the relevant information is printed on the back, like most products. It is also packaged in a plastic wrapper, with a security tag. This product is marketed as a foundation that “instantly reawakens skin, with a healthy, radiant glow”. It is also mean’t to be light weight and give a poreless and flawless complexion. It also contains SPF15 for sun protection and illuminating pearls, which is mean’t to give your face a natural glow. It is also mean’t to “bounce your skin back to life” and banish the signs of fat...

Perfume Power! - Avon 'Femme'

I recently started looking at the Avon catalogues again and I saw this perfume had a test circle. Whenever I see the test circles, I just have to rub them! I tested this perfume and I instantly wanted it, plus it was on offer with the matching body spray and lotion. The bottle is clear glass and is inspired by diamonds. The cap is clear plastic and is a squared diamond shape. It has a regular perfume spritzer, which is silver to blend in with the clear cut look. The fragrance notes are:- Top Notes: Pink Grapefruit, Plum & Violet Middle Notes: Jasmine, Wild Orchid & Magnolia Base Notes: Amber, Peach, Wood & Musk I really like the bottle because it is beautifully simple and you can see how much liquid you have left. The cap is not very secure though because it just sits on top of the spritzer, which means it can easy fall off in your bag. The spritzer is very easy to use and it distributes the perfume evenly in a concentrated mist. The scent I would say...
