Cute Candy Cookies Cute Candy Cookies
I saw a cookie with a candy window on a TV show awhile ago. I thought if it could be made with a black cocoa cookie, it'd make for a nice contrast and be really cute, so I gave it a shot. When I put the candy in before baking the cookie dough would become smashed or stick to the candy and it was quite difficult. So I changed the procedure to add the candy during the middle of baking.Try to fill in the gaps with smashed candy bits as much as possible. The baking may differ depending on your household oven, so adjust the temperature and baking time as necessary. If the temperature is too hot, the candy may burn. It might be a good idea to have candy bits left over when baking so you can fill in any gaps. For the candy, I use orange and pineapple flavored Sakuma drops. Recipe by yotiko cookpad.japan -
EBT’s Chocolate “Crack” Candy EBT’s Chocolate “Crack” Candy
EBT stands for “Eddie Back There”. How he got the initials, at the time there were 3 Eddies in our church choir. Eddie on the organ, Eddie on the “skit” team, and Eddie on the back row. The choir director called for Eddie, they answered, “which one?” She said Eddie back there, and the nickname stuck. He makes the BEST chocolate candy. I asked when he was going to bring more EBT Crack. He gave me his recipe. #GlobalApron 2024 Sonya Bankester -
For Christmas! Candy Cane Cookies For Christmas! Candy Cane Cookies
I got the candy cane shape idea from an American recipe website, so I made it with my favorite cookie batter called "melting moment" which is equivalent to snowball cookies in Japan I think. This cookie is so delicious! If you can't shape it well, roll it up into balls and simply bake!The dough is not easy to roll out, so do not make it too small, or it will break after baking. I recommend making the stick thick. If the cookies brown too much, the coloring won't turn out as cute, so be careful not to over bake! Please try this with your favorite cookie batter. For about 28 sticks. Recipe by aquariusmoon cookpad.japan -

California Farm Blood Orange Syrup California Farm Blood Orange Syrup
Heavy winter winds blew all blood oranges off our tree and did damage to the not yet ripe lemons. We pickle lemons, we make blood orange marmelade and made blood orange simple syrup to preserve and cook with them year-round.We make a batch with five oranges and two lemons in a pan, weight them on a digital kitchen scale, then cut up and cover with water and simmer till the water has evaporated. We then add the same weight in cane sugar, plus same weight in water and boil, then cool and taste. Then condense till we have simple syrup thickness.Blood oranges here vary in sweetness from year to year. This wet winter, they needed more than their weight in sugar.#newyear2025 “Replace store bought foods with home made organics” Hobby Horseman
