Baking never tasted so good with my Cookie Butter Blondies #fyp #recipes #cooking - 340g unsalted butter, softened 130g caster sugar 200g brown sugar 2tsp vanilla essence 3 eggs 390g plain flour (ideally cake flour) 1tsp sea salt 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon 1/2 tsp baking powder 80g milk 115g white chocolate buttons 115g dark chocolate buttons 375g lotus cookies 300g biscoff spread Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a baking tray with baking paper. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened unsalted butter, caster sugar, and brown sugar until pale and smooth using a hand mixer or a stand mixer. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then add the vanilla essence and beat until fluffy. In a separate bowl, sift together the cake flour, sea salt, ground cinnamon, and baking powder. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until well combined. Pour in the milk and mix until incorporated. Fold in the white chocolate buttons, dark chocolate buttons, and lotus cookies. Mix until the cookies are just crushed and evenly distributed throughout the batter. Transfer the batter into the lined baking tray and spread it out evenly to create a smooth layer. Warm the cookie butter spread slightly in the microwave or on the stovetop until it's pourable. Drizzle the warmed cookie butter over the batter in the baking tray. Top the batter with additional lotus cookies, pressing them gently into the batter. Bake in the preheated oven for about 30-40 minutes or until the blondies are golden brown and JUST wobbly in the middle. Allow the blondies to cool completely in the tray before cutting them into portions. Once cooled, cut the blondies into squares or rectangles and serve. Enjoy your delicious homemade cookie butter blondies!

Move over vodka pasta, vodka gnocchi is where it’s at 🤌🏼 #cooking #pasta #yum - For the Gnocchi: 1kg floury potatoes (such as Sebago) 2 egg yolks 1 cups all-purpose flour (ideally tipo “00”) (plus extra for dusting) For the Vodka Sauce: 30ml vegetable oil 2 large shallots, finely chopped 2 cloves of garlic, minced 1 tsp chili flakes 3 stems oregano, finely chopped 3 stems basil, finely chopped 3 stems parsley, finely chopped 1/2 cup vodka 2 tins diced tomatoes 3/4-1 cup cream For Garnish: Mini bocconcini Charred cherry tomatoes Fresh herbs of your choice Place potatoes on a baking tray, cover with foil, and roast at 180°C until soft (around an hour). In a pan, sauté shallots and garlic until soft, then add oregano, basil and parsley and chilli flakes. Pour in the vodka to deglaze the pan, allowing it to reduce slightly. Add diced tomatoes and let the mixture simmer for about 30 minutes or until thick. Once the potatoes are soft, remove them from the oven, peel while hot, and pass through a potato ricer, allowing to cool slightly. Add egg yolks to the riced potatoes and stir. Gradually knead in the flour until the dough is combined but not overworked. Roll the dough evenly and cut into small pillows, dust with flour and set aside. Once the sauce has reduced, blend until smooth and return to the pan. Stir in the cream and season to taste. Carefully fry the gnocchi pieces on both sides in a pan with oil until golden brown. Plate the gnocchi, top with vodka sauce, and garnish with mini bocconcini, charred cherry tomatoes, and fresh herbs.
