Mocha Cookies!

Mmm...mocha. Quite possibly one of my favorite beverages. Along with a soy chai latte. And a coco mocha nut... ok so there are quite a few BUT, mocha is at the top of the list :)

So I made these little beauties :)

Here's how I did it:

1/2 cup self raising flour
1/3 cup almond meal
1/2 cup plain (wholemeal, GF, whatever you prefer)
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tbsp maple syrup
1 tsp ground coffee (mixed with water)
1/2 cup organic dark chocolate chips
1/2 cup butter

And, if you've read my recipes in the past you know I pretty much just chuck all the ingredients in the bowl and mix it.

After about 12-15 minutes in the oven at 180C, they should be a little springy - take them out and leave them to cool.

Voila! Hope you enjoy!

Sprinkle Cookies!

My boyfriend and I are planning on going on a picnic for Valentine's Day tomorrow, and I decided to make some sprinkle cookies to add to our yet-to-be-bought feast! (I also wanted to try cooking sprinkles - doesn't the color run? Apparently not! As long as you don't cook them for too long on too high! Phew).

Anyway, I just used a cake mix (any old vanilla butter cake will do!), 1/3 cup water, 3 tablespoons of olive oil butter and spinkles. Add the sprinkles last though, and just give them 2 stirs.

So, they turned out like this. Fun. And colorful.
