These little cookies are sunshine on a plate. I have to say I love the flavor combo. I thought I would end up with some pretty average, weird tasting cookies however they are so refreshing and delightful. They have inspired me to begin experimenting with other flavor combos in my baking. You never know what you will end up with, but if there all this good I’m very keen.
I had some basil that was slowly wilting and instead of making a big spaghetti bolognese, I started to think what else I could do with the basil. Basil has such an amazing and homely aroma, its sweet and inviting, I could just dive my face into a bunch of basil, its just that good, don’t you think so?
I started to think how would it go in something sweet, I had some lemons and thought I might make a bit of a short bread and incorporate the two, well lemon and basil go so well together in savory dishes, whats to stop them working in something sweet. Well let me tell you…. NOTHING. Its divine and I think you should give it a go. Do you know of any other flavor combos that work well in sweet dishes, I would love to hear about any of your own experimentation.
Afternoon pick me up? I always need one, don’t you? It baffles me how some people have so much energy all the time, they’re like little energiser bunnies, always go, go, go. I used to think maybe its the food they eat but you know what I think its just the way they’re programmed.
If you’re like me and need a pick me up or suffer from three-thirtyitis and need something to get you through the rest of the day, well at least until dinner, I’ve got the thing for you. I have combined all the wake me up foods into one cookie, coffee, chocolate and sugar. Drum roll please………
Mocha Cookies. They’re soft and gooey, just the way I like my cookies. Be warned they do have a bit of a coffee hit though.
Enjoy xx
