I don't do baking.  Well I do but it almost always ends in failure.
I tried to master cheesecake but if I didn't have the wrong tin it was the wrong cheese.
I tried to be Supermum at Christmas and make Christmas cookies for Darling Daughter but if they weren't burnt they were all over the tray merged into one giant cookie.
I made an amazing batch of millionaires shortbread the other week.  It was a fluke I did the same thing all over again to make another batch to give to friends as a pressie and it was a fail.  One false move with the caramel and it doesn't set right, no bugger told me that!
See below my failure.  Messy messy messy!!  
I really needed baked goods with tea today after a super dooper chilly walk in the park with Second Born Son and The Hound.   I also thought wouldn't it be nice to pick Darling Daughter up from kindy with cookies to take to Daddy for afternoon tea.
The key to baking success...simplicity...
I managed to make some peanut butter cookies that didn't need to go straight in the bin.  All that was required was 4 ingredients, all of which were in my cupboard.  Yeah go me.   
They were so easy and yummy.  Perfect. 
I got the recipe from One Good Thing by Jillee.  If like me you are super poop at baking, need things simple and like peanut butter have a go.  20 minutes and you too can be chomping cookies like me!


Millionares shorbread may look messy but bet it tasted good.
ReplyDeleteI must admit I wanted to lick my screen looking at your flopped millionaire's shortbread. I'm weird like that :P
