In Case You Missed It
Still laid up, haven’t made it into the office yet to upload photos. I attempted to shower and get dressed this morning, and it did not go well. We made a batch of peanutella a couple weeks ago I’ve been dying to tell you about. You know Nutella, yes? Well the same can be made with chocolate and peanut butter – a classic combo if there ever was one. This stuff is like spreadable peanut butter cups, and takes approximately a minute and a half to make. If you’re in a pinch and need something delicious to bring to a party, wash out a jar and fill it with this. And maybe a spoon, tied on with a ribbon. For midnight snacking, you know.
I’ve been plugging away with my posts over at Babble – I also made a sticky toffee pudding with chocolate and dried cherries I think you should know about. It’s not authentic sticky toffee pudding, but if you want a far more streamlined version you don’t even have to share, you can stir it up in a mug in a matter of minutes. When mine came out, I sprinkled some chocolate and cherries overtop, and let the chocolate melt with the warm pudding-of-sorts. Oh yum.
And then there’s the Momofuku Milk Bar Compost Cookie. They’re total cupboard cleaners – made with chocolate chips or chunks or bits, and then salty snacks, like bashed up pretzels or chips.
And I made maple walnut swirl cookies for something or other – it’s one of my faces, mapleized – which as a bonus makes your house smell wonderful.
Now to load up on painkillers and make my way to the office. Back soon with cookies – and perhaps even a vegetable.
