Bonding this christmas

I Talk about about relationships and I look for new ways to help us bond with our loved ones.
I thought it would be a good idea if I shared some tips of my favourite cookies and smoothie.Enjoy!


Peanut Butter Toffee Cookies

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled), plus more for fingertips
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup smooth peanut butter
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 chocolate-covered toffe candy bars (1.4 ounces each), chopped
Directions
  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 350. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.

  2. Step 2: In a large bowl, with an electric mixer on high speed, beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add peanut butter and egg; beat until smooth. With mixer on low, gradually add flour mixture. Stir in toffe.

  3. Step 3: Using 1 level tablespoon batter per cookie, drop onto baking sheets, about 1 inch apart; flatten slightly with floured fingertips. Bake until edges are golden brown, 16 to 18 minutes, rotating sheets halfway through. Transfer cookies immediately to a wire rack to cool completely. 

     #If there is extra peanut butter, you could make a peanut butter banana smoothie.   

                          Banana                                                   1/8 cup peanut butter         
      1/2 cup milk or yogurt                    2 tablespoons of honey                                      Ice Cubes                                                                  

    STEPS
    #Take out your blender and add the ingredients.
    #Add ice cubes and blend ingredients until smooth. Then #Garnish your smoothie. Loose berries, a wheel of lemon or lime, Grinded nuts or flat-leaf parsley can add a fun touch to the final beverage. If you're feeling tropical, add a little umbrella. Merry Christmas!
