Peanut Butter Cookies

I love peanut butter anything, besides on bread! It had to be faith when I found this recipe on the side of a cereal box. I made this and it was a complete hit and I got a good size batch out of it. Instead of serving them separately I made Nutella sandwiches just to add more opulence to it.

Ingredients:

250g    Butter
500ml  Sugar
2          Eggs, whisked
125ml  Smooth Peanut Butter
10ml    Bicarbonate of Soda
25ml    Milk
5ml      Vanilla Essence
500ml  Flour, sifted
500ml  Instant Oats
500ml  Coconut
500ml  Cornflakes

Method:

Preheat oven to 180'C.
1. Cream butter and sugar.
2. Add whisked egg
3. Add peanut butter and mix well
4. Dissolve bicarbonate of soda in milk. Add vanilla essence.
    Add butter mixture and Beat Well.
5. Mix the rest of the ingredients together.
    Add to the peanut butter mixture.
6. Form walnut-sized balls.
    Place on a greased tray and flatten slightly with a fork
7. Bake for 10-15 minutes until brown and done.
8. Turn out onto a cookie rack. Allow to cool and store in an airtight container.

Makes approximately 8 dozen cookies.

I rolled about a spoon full of dough in my hand and pressed it flat instead of using a fork. Hope you have fun baking!

 

 

Barbie has a New Shape!

This project was a huge secret and also a huge risk for the creators of Mattel and if you would like to know more you can read the article here.

REVIEW:

I love the idea of Barbie coming in all shapes now. To me Barbie is the blond, tall, thin doll who has the best lifestyle so creating dolls of different shapes, hair, complexion and backgrounds is fun yet I won't be able to ever not see Barbie as a tall thin blond doll I enjoyed playing with. People who had an uproar of Barbie setting unrealistic goals for kids clearly will be very pleased with this launch and hopefully will support the course.

Off to the Races!!

Valentino Spring/ Summer 2016

Looking through the fashion show photos I sense that the designers drew inspiration from the Ottoman Empire. If I were alive during that era and was a royal I would want the Valentino Collection in my wardrobe. I love the silhouettes, the fabric and the prints, it really is a collection for those hot beautiful days of summer ahead and it's also the less is more look.

This dress reminds me of Hercules

The Kimono for me is between Asian and Turkey.

This is really hitting my Bohemian spot right now.

Need that headpiece! Oh and that dress.

This is my dress and that butterfly print is slaying.



Print Goals.

I am no much of a snake fan, but man oh man I want this snake print dress!

I am loving this pot of gold
