  3. Smooth half of the mascarpone mixture over the top. Add another layer of dipped lady fingers. Smooth remaining mascarpone cream over the top.

For the Cookie Bars
  1. Preheat your oven to 190C/170C Fan and line a 9x9inch Square Tin with parchment paper, and leave to the side for now. 
  2. Whisk/Mix the Plain Flour, Bicarbonate, Salt and Cornflour together so its evenly distributed – leave to the side. 
  3. In a larger bowl, melt the butter. Add in the two sugars, and whisk for about 2 minutes so the sugar starts to dissolve and the mixture is smooth. Add in the Egg and the Vanilla, and whisk again briefly till smooth. (I used an electric whisk) 
  4. Add in the Dry Ingredients and the Chocolate Chips and mix with a spatula till a thick cookie dough is formed. 
  5. Press the mixture into the bottom of the tin. Bake the traybake in the oven for 18-22 minutes, until the top of the cookie bake looks ‘dry’! 
  6. Leave to cool whilst doing the next stages. 

For the Caramel
  1. In a large saucepan pour the Condensed Milk, Unsalted Butter, Sugar, and Golden Syrup and melt on a medium heat till the Sugar has dissolved – stir frequently to stop anything from catching. 
  2. Once the Sugar has dissolved, turn the heat up high and let the mixture come to boiling point and boil for 5-7 minutes stiring constantly so that the mixture doesn’t catch. BE CAREFUL as the mixture is
  3. VERY hot and can burn you if it splashes back! 
  4. The mixture will be ready when it has changed to a slightly darker golden colour, and has thickened to a soft fudge texture! 
  5. Pour the caramel onto the Cookie Bars and leave to set for one-two hours on the side. 

For the Chocolate
  1. Melt your three chocoaltes carefully till smooth - I personally do this in the microwave.
  2. Drizzle over the caramel in a swirly pattern, or however you fancy, and leave to set fully on the side, or in the fridge.

The Best Soft Chocolate Chip Cookies




Ingredients
  • 3/4 cup (1.5 sticks or 170g) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
  • 3/4 cup (150g) packed light or dark brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg, at room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
  • 2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour (spoon & leveled)
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 and 1/4 cup (225g) semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions
  1. In a large bowl using a hand-held mixer or stand mixer with paddle attachment, beat the butter, brown sugar, and sugar together on medium speed until combined and creamy, about 2 minutes. Beat in the egg and vanilla. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed.
  2. In a separate bowl, combine flour, cornstarch, baking soda and salt. Add into the wet ingredients, then beat on low speed until combined. The cookie dough will be slightly thick. On low speed, beat the chocolate chips. Cover dough tightly with aluminum foil or plastic wrap and chill for at least 1 hour and up to 2 days. Chilling is mandatory for this cookie dough.
  3. Remove cookie dough from the refrigerator and allow to sit at room temperature for 10 minutes. Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. (Always recommended for cookies.) Set aside.
  4. Once chilled, the dough will be slightly crumbly, but will come together when you work the dough with your hands. Roll balls of dough, about 1.5 Tablespoons of dough each, into balls.
  5. Bake for 10-12 minutes, until barely golden brown around the edges. The cookies will look extremely soft when you remove them from the oven. Cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet. If the cookies are too puffy, try gently pressing down on them with the back of a spoon. They will slightly deflate as you let them cool. If desired, while the cookies are still warm, press a few extra chocolate chips into the tops. This is completely for looks!
  6. Transfer cookies to a cooling rack to cool completely. Cookies stay fresh covered at room temperature for up to 1 week.

Chicken and Spinach in Creamy Parmesan Mushroom Sauce




Ingredients

  • Chicken and Mushrooms:
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil
  • 4 boneless skinless chicken thighs (thinly sliced)
  • 10 oz mushrooms (1 package)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Creamy Parmesan Sauce:
  • 4 Tbsp butter
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 Tbsp flour
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup half and half
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 Tsp salt
  • 1 cup spinach

Instructions
  1. Chicken and mushrooms: In a large skillet, add olive oil and heat it over medium high heat. When the pan is hot, add chicken and cook for about 5 minutes on each side until browned. Season chicken with salt and pepper right inside the pan. Remove it onto a plate and add the sliced mushrooms in. Add in salt. In about 5 more minutes, your mushrooms should look nice and moist, and dark. Once cooked, remove them from the pan. I put them on the same plate as the cooked chicken strips.
  2. Sauce: To make the sauce, add butter to the pan, allow it to melt and then cook garlic in it until slightly browned – only for a couple of minutes. Add 1 tablespoon flour (omit flour if you like your sauce to be a little more runny).  Slowly add chicken broth, half-and-half and Parmesan cheese. All these will blend in very quickly.
  3. Add salt slowly and taste the sauce to make sure the salt level is to your liking.
  4. Spinach: Add spinach to the sauce and allow it to wilt. I added 1 cup of spinach, but you can certainly add more or less depending on your preference.
  5. Putting it all together: Add the chicken and mushrooms back into the pan and mix in well. Serve warm and garnish it with parsley, if desired.
  6. Eat as is, or serve along pasta or rice.

Iced Oatmeal Cookies Recipe




Ingredients

Cookie
  • 1 cup old fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 cup al purpose flour and 2 tbsp
  • 1 tsp cornstarch
  • 1/2 tbsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 1/4 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 8 tbsp butter softened
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar packed
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Glaze
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 tbsp milk
  • 1/4 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line baking sheets with parchment paper or baking mats. 
  2. Pour oats into a food processor and pulse about 10-12 times (you want it to be an even mix of ground and whole oats). In a medium size bowl, combine the oats, flour, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg, whisk together.
  3. In a large mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, cream the butter, sugars and vanilla extract together until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes on high speed. With mixing speed on low, add the egg and mix until incorporated. Gradually add the dry ingredients, mixing just until combined. The dough is fairly soft so I prefer refrigerating it for 20-30 minutes before rolling, that way my hands aren't a mess and it gives it time to rest.
  4. Using a standard size cookie scoop, place balls of dough onto each sheet. Place in the oven and bake for 10-14 minutes. I prefer crisp iced oatmeal cookies so I leave mine in for the full 14.
  5. Remove from the oven and allow to cool on the sheets for 3 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. 
  6. Once the cookies are cool, whisk together all of the ingredients for the glaze in a small mixing bowl. Dip the tops of the cookies in and swirl to remove any excess. Allow to set for 30 minutes.

DEPRESSION-ERA CHOCOLATE CAKE RECIPE




Ingredients: 
  • 3 1/2 cups organic powdered cane sugar *
  • 1 1/4 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/4 cup butter, ghee, or coconut oil (I decided to use ghee for my frosting this time, and it gave it a nice, slightly caramel flavor.)
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup water
  • pinch sea salt (unless using salted butter) 

Directions:  
  1. Combine powdered sugar and cocoa powder in a large mixing bowl.
  2. Add vanilla extract and butter, ghee, or coconut oil.
  3. Gradually add water, stirring well to combine until icing reaches the right consistency for spreading. (I just stirred mine by hand because I was too lazy to dig out my mixer and I didn’t want to have to wash the beaters afterward, but using a mixer is the best way to get a smooth icing without any little clumps of cocoa powder.)
