Peanut butter fudge brownies

Hey people,  Been  a while

      So I abandoned my blog for quite some time now, that was only because of stress, excessive stress and also a little bit of laziness but all that's gone now and I'm back. I might have been lazy to post but I sure as hell wasn't lazy to bake or cook. I have a list of things I did over my little "break" and I will be sharing them with you guys one after the other.
      First lets start with this Peanut butter fudge brownies, as usual I had excess peanut butter on my hands and my brothers were going to finish it if I didn't act fast. I don't really like eating peanut butter unless its being used in a recipe but I was craving brownies so I decided to make this peanut butter fudge brownies.
I took my regular brownies recipe and decided to tweak it a little bit and try it out, After baking I gave some out to my trusted tasters(not just my brothers this time) and they said it was wonderful. I hope you guys try it too.

Here's what you need
100grms of dark chocolate
100grms of butter
128grms of peanut butter
1 cup of white sugar (200 grms)
1 cup of brown sugar
! cup of cocoa powder
1/2 cup of flour
1 tsp of salt
5 large eggs
1 tsp of vanilla
1 tsp of coffee granules

 Melt together butter, chocolate, peanut butter and coffee granules over a double boiler.
Double boiler: place a pot of water on low heat, then place over it a smaller pot containing the items you want to melt making sure that the bottom of the smaller pot does not touch the simmering water

 Measure the flour, cocoa powder and salt

 whisk all together

 Measure both sugars

 Add both sugars to the melted chocolate mixture and whisk well

 Crack in the 5 eggs

 Add in the rest of the dry ingredients and mix just until combined, be careful not to over-mix here so you don't end up with a chocolate cake

 Line a 9 by 9 inch square pan with aluminum foil and let it hang over the sides so you can easily pull out your brownie when its done.

Bake at 350°F or 180° C for about 45 minutes or until a wooden toothpick comes out clean.

Hmmm...No words

peanut cookies

Hey people,

Its me again, this time I'm here with a banging peanut butter cookie recipe that I think everyone should try at home. Like I always say, its super easy to make and you only need a few ingredients.
Lets get started...Heres all you need.

2 and 1/4 cups of flour, sifted
135 grams of unsalted butter (softened)
115 grams of creamy peanut butter
3/4 cup of brown sugar
3/4 cup of white sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon of salt
1 teaspoon of baking soda
1/2 a cup of crushed peanuts


 Whisk your flour, baking soda and salt, set aside

Measure 125 grams  of butter

Add in 115 grams of peanut butter

Add in both your sugar and mix on medium speed

Until creamy

Add two eggs and mix well

You can add a teaspoon of any flavoring you'd like

Mix in your flour mixture

Next, fold in your crushed nuts.

  *ermm that should be crushed peanuts....yeah....crushed peanuts.

Cookie doughhh!!!!!!!!!

Its delicious..try it.

Wrap you dough in plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for at least 15 minutes

 I chilled mine for 3 days, mainly because I felt lazy to bake them but the good thing is the longer you chill your cookie dough the better it tastes but don't leave it for too long tho.

Next, you line your baking sheet with parchment paper. I ran out of parchment paper so I just greased my baking sheet.
 Take out your cookie dough and let it rest on your kicthen counter for about 5 minutes or just until dough is pliable. Roll your dough into small balls and place on baking sheet, then place the baking sheet in the freezer for about 5 minutes. (I forgot to take pictures until the cookies were ready because I was simple baking cookies I prepared 3 days back)
After 5 minutes, take out your baking sheet and flatten the balls with the back of a spoon, just a little tho, you don't make them too flat because they will still spread out in the oven.
Bake in a preheated oven at 180 degrees for 12 minutes, rotating your tray halfway through baking time.  Let them cool and enjoy.

 

Malt milkshake

Hi guys,

I made this milkshake on the first of January but I have been so busy, haven't been able to post anything. This malt milkshake is so good and its exteeemely easy to make.
Here's what you'll need
2 bottles of your favorite malt drink (you can guess what mine is)
1 and half cup of heavy cream
Ice

Half-fill your blender with crushed ice 

 

 

          Fill your blender with your malt drink

                  Then add in your cream

Pulse for about 5 - 10 seconds

 Fill your glass and enjoy, I stained my glass with melted ganache but you can use melted chocolate. Stain your glass before filling it with your drink, top with the foam in your blender and sprinkles then enjoy, or drink it directly from the blender because I tried that.*its that good*

Enjoy

Apple crumble cake

Happy new year again.

Hi guys, how did you receive the new year? I slept through the night. This year has been good so far but I hope its gets better. Anyways lets start the new year with this apple crumble cake recipe I got out of a cookbook *just tweaked it a little bit...super easy.
Here's all you need:
50 grams of butter
1 egg
3 medium sized apples
1 cup of flour
6 tbsps of sugar
A dash on cinnamon
About a cup and half of streusel (just to cover up the mix)
Preheat your oven to 180 degrees Celssius

spring form pan

 A pan with a detachable base, making it easier to get out your finished delicate baked goods. This is a 9 inch pan but you can use a smaller one if you like

Making this is super easy as long as you have your streusel in the freezer.

Clean, core, quarter and slice your apples

Add all other ingredients(except for the streusel) together in a bowl i.e butter, flour, sugar,egg and mix well *you can do this by hand

thick batter

Spread the batter in the pan

top with sliced appled

sprinkle a little cinnamon and sugar

Finally cover with streusel

Bake in the oven for about 30 minutes, longer time if you are using a smaller pan.

I drizzled salted caramel over it..it made it over the top

Have a great year guys.
