Easter Rabbit Cookie

I'm hoping to make these interesting by playing with colors.

Cookie Pops

Simple and easy to make. These were originally intended for chocolate fondue. Since I've baked too many of the cookie pops, I might as well take some and layered them with fondant. :-)

New York-Style Choc Chip Cookies

My friend bought me a box of premix from Sydney.

The instruction on the box are easy to follow. You only need 125gm butter. 1 tbsp water and 1 egg.

The outcome, as below:

I tried to ensure that each dollop of mixture include 1 chocolate button that came in the box. Else, some cookie will be without a chocolate button. :-)

Taste: Sweet and chewy. Thumbs up!

Chocolate Pecan Cookies Recipe

These are simple to make and taste great!

How to do:

225gm of butter - unsalted

1/2 cup caster sugar

3/4 cup light brown sugar

1/2 tsp molasses sugar

Step 2: Add 2 large eggs and 2 tsp vanilla essence into the mixture.

Step 3: In a separate large bowl, mix the below items together

2 1/4 cup plain flour

1/2 tsp Baking Soda

3/4 tsp salt

Step 4: Add the flour mixture into the butter mixture. Ensure they are well mixed.

Step 5: Using a spatula, blend in these items into the mixture.

2 cup semisweet chocolate chips

1 cup chopped pecans. (If you prefer, you may replace them with walnuts.)

Step 6: Preheat oven at 170 Degrees Celsius.

Step 7: Using a scoop or a spoon, portion the mounds onto a prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake them for 13 to 15 mins, until cookies are golden brown at the edges and still bit pale in the center. Transfer to cooling rack and let the cookies cool completely before transferring them to an air-tight container.
