All Sorts of Ah'mazing Deals for You!
(A girls' gotta make a living - lol! I get a wee something from anything you order through me, so, Thank You soo muches!! You da bestiest!! : )


Makes 70 good size pieces - ah'yummers! Yippee! (Hint - you can even share them with the kids - haha!)


Ingredients:

1 cup of Peanut Butter

1/2 cup butter OR margarine (1 brick = 1/2 cup : ), melt for 1 minute (1:00 minute) in the microwave

1 tsp of Vanilla

1 1/2 - 2 cups of Graham Cracker Crumbs (Or whatever you've got left if you just made a Cheesecake!)

1 cup Icing Sugar

(Optional - 1/3 cup Sugar, for texture, add it at the very end : )

Chocolate Chips for the topping : ) 

(Just toss the Chocolate Chips on the cooked cookie base, pop back in the oven for 2 minutes, that will melt the Chocolate Chips, spread with a knife - pop in the fridge to cool and harden, then cut into squares!)



Put the block of Margarine, or the butter, whichever you prefer (next time I'll make it with the butter, see if you can tell any difference), but pop the 1/2 cup of margarine in the microwave, in a large microwave-safe bowl, for 1:00 minute -

Here's the amazing thing - you won't even need to heat up the peanut butter, it'll melt right into the melted butter or margarine - and add in 1 tsp of Vanilla - I just use a capful of Vanilla : )

Give that a good stir, then add in the Graham Cracker crumbs and the Icing Sugar - you can add the extra regular sugar, if you want to try that, too...

The Peanut Butter will melt right into the melted Margarine or Butter (I can't tell the difference, when you're baking, so, whichever one you have in the fridge! lol!)


Omg, this comes together so quickly, you'll be shocked how easy these are to make, and then how delicious they are to eat - Yum!!

Press it out on Parchment Paper - that's the easiest thing - if you're not already in the habit of using Parchment Paper, it's easy to find, should be about $2 something at your favorite store : )

And Parchment Paper will forever be a game-changer for all your baking - makes everything so lovely, nice and crispy, for frozen foods, like Butterfly Shrimp, and is amazing for all your baking needs - so-to-speak - lol! (Now it's a commercial? Haha!)


Pop that in the oven at 350 for about 15 to 20 minutes - it'll rise, but don't worry about that - it'll settle back down when it's in the fridge - Settle Down, People (the most annoying thing to hear from your teachers - lol!)   ; )

Take it out the oven, sprinkle on some Chocolate Chips - Yay!!


Well, by now you prolly haz guessed me a'yuvs da chocolate! Haha! Yum! 

So just sprinkle on some Chocolate Chips, however many you want, and pop that back in the oven, for about 1 or 2 minutes - the chocolate chips will melt very quickly...


Then you are just gonna take a knife, and gently join all the Chocolate Chips together (together again, naturally...) - the chocolate will be really smooth, and super easy to spread : )

Let the chocolate set in the fridge, then go ahead and cut them into any size you like! : )


I slide the Parchment Paper right off the pan, so it's super easy to cut into squares, and I make fairly large squares, for these lovely Peanut Butter Squares - they're sooo good!

After I cute the Peanut Butter Cups (Squares), I slide the Parchment Paper back onto the tray, pop the whole thing in the fridge - so delicious, and so crazy-easy to make! : )


And there you go!

Reese's Peanut Butter Cup Spread Squares - so insanely delicious! 

I make them with Reese's Peanut Butter Spread, too, when I can find it, and top it with Mini-Marshmallows - the rest of that recipe is over on my favorite Marry Me Cheesecake Page - try that, too - omg, you're gonna love it all! lol!

Omg, now I want that, too - hahaha! My Marry Me Cherry Cheesecake!

This is a'gonna make you sooo happy! Yahooo!!!

Enjoy! 

Your Happy Little Foodie Friend, Ailsa!! xoxo!!

Coconut Macaroons #EasyRecipes Yippee! 

Singles Day! 11/11 Deals!All Sorts of Great Deals for You, Baby-Cakes! 



Here we go! Today I made the Coconut Macaroons with Chocolate Chips, but instead of making individual cookies, which we love, I thought it would save some time to just pour all the 'batter' right onto the Parchment Paper, bake it all at the same time, like Squares - Ah'Yum! They're amazing, and so crazy easy to make : )

I used 2 egg whites, 2 caps of Vanilla, I poured in a whole bag of Coconut, plus a little bit more of the larger flaked coconut, from another bag I used, the laast time I made the Coconut Macaroons, when I had used the Condensed Milk - I forgot all about adding in the sugar, and it seems like, with the Chocolate Chips, the extra sugar isn't even necessary - they're so delicious, all on their ownio! So cute, and so delicious!

And then I never like to waste anything, so I made cheesey scrambled eggs with the leftover egg yolks - deeelish!


Oh My Goodness, these are soo cute! And delicious! 

Ghostie Coconut Macaroons 
They kinda look like little puppy faces, too - lol!

Halloween Trick or Treats - Mostly Treats! lol! Ghosties for Your Little Goblins! 



There are 2 super easy ways to make these delicious and delightful little Coconut Macaroons - so cute, perfect every time! Yippee! 

Will take you only a few minutes to make them, plus baking time - and, use Parchment Paper, is ah'mazing, nothing sticks to it - is like magic! : )

Coconut Macaroons

Recipe 1: 

1 egg white, whipped with a fork (What did it do to you? lol!) (Save the yolk for later, make some Scrambled Eggs - Yum!)

2 Cups of Coconut

1 tsp Vanilla (I use the cap for the measurement - is easier and faster : )

A little less than a tbsp of Sugar - that one is optional...

Okay, that's everything for the first recipe... 

And now for the variation... if you happen to have a can of Condensed Milk in the house...



Recipe 2:

1 egg white, whipped with a fork 

5 Cups of Coconut

1 tsp Vanilla 

1 can of Condensed Milk (no need for any extra sugar, this will be sweet, enough : )

THEN, Chocolate Chips to make the little faces - 3 chocolate chips per cookie - soo cute! 



Are you shocked at how few ingredients? I know, right? And Macaroons are soo expensive, in the stores - and now you know how to make them, too, and they're super-crazy easy to make - yahoo! 

Hello, more Trick or Treats! 

These are particularly great for holidays, but are fun, any time of year, and the kids love them, too! 

Directions: 

The easiest way to separate the White of the Egg from the Yolk is to crack open the egg against the side of the bowl, pour out the whites of the egg, pop the egg yolk into the other side, the shell will do all the work for you : ) 

Then save that egg yolk for when you're done baking, then add a little milk or water, whisk with a fork, pop in the microwave for 1:20 (or, a little over a minute, depending on your microwave, and how cooked you like your eggs!), covered, then use 2 knives to cut it quickly into Scrambled Eggs - is so good! Ah'Yum! 


So, Whisk 1 Egg White with a fork

Add in the Vanilla and Sugar, for the super easy Recipe 1

For Recipe 2, this is the time to add in your can of Condensed Milk


Remember, the Condensed Milk is just an option, and it uses waaay more coconut, so, see how much coconut you have on hand, first, and how sweet you want your Coconut Macaroons - I love them both ways, but, I think I like the first recipe the best - uses fewer ingredients, is a little healthier for you, too - but, you do you, boo! Try them both, see what you and your family like the best, or, go back and forth, depending on what you have in the cupboard - lol!


Now that you've made your Egg White nice and Frothy (the Snowman? haha!), add in less than a tablespoon of sugar, and only for Recipe 1, the one without the Condensed Milk : )


Mix that all together, now - like a choir of deliciousness! Haha!


OR, for Recipe 1...

Now Add your Coconut: (Put the lime in the coconut, and mix it all up... nooo, just the song, don't add any lime - lol!)

Recipe 1:

Recipe 2:

Recipe 1 - looks pretty different from Recipe 2, at this stage, but will taste virtually the same - for real! 



You oven should be on at 350 - I like 350, you can go lower, if you like, 325... 350 is just easy...

Make little forkfuls, or spoonfuls, however you like to do it, and put them on the Parchment Paper

Recipe 2:

Recipe 1:
See, they look slightly different, but, they will all taste great, no worries : )
Take one tray out as another tray goes in : )
Make little faces one one tray, at least - these ones go first - mostly because they're sooo cute! 

Just 3 little Chocolate Chips - so cute! And they look so pretty, in the fridge - lol!





The main difference between Recipe 1 and Recipe 2 is how many it makes - just double Recipe 1 if you want lots of Coconut Macaroons - Easy Schmeasy! 


Bake until they're Golden Brown - just keep an eye on them - about 15 minutes, I think - I lost track of the time - lol! 

Recipe 1:

Recipe 2:

They're just so cute! I love them so much! Yippee!




Yum! They're so crazy-delicious! : )



Enjoy!! Your little cooking pal, Ailsa!! xoxo!!
