Cookies


Hi! Cookies are great for every occassion a birthday a sleepover or just to eat them during lunch time at school! There are some brands that sold this packs with pre-made cookie dougth so you only put water on it, or just cut it and bake them, well half the fun of cookies is making them. I'm not saying this pre-made cookies dougths are bad (O God not the cookies you made with them are great!) But once in a while is fun to make hem yourself! So here is a recipe I found on internet, I personally have made them several times and them are great!
Recipe:
Makes twenty-six 5-inch cookies or 8 1/2 dozen 1 1/4-inch cookies




You need:

- 1 pound unsalted butter
- 1 3/4 cups granulated sugar

- 2 1/4 cups packed light-brown sugar
- 4 large eggs

- 3 cups plus 2 tablespoons pastry flour
- 3 cups bread flour

- 1 tablespoon salt
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 pounds Jacques Torres House (60 percent cocoa) Chocolate or other best-quality semisweet or bittersweet chocolate, coarsely chopped

How To:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line baking sheets with parchment paper or nonstick baking mats; set aside.
2. In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream together butter and sugars. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Reduce speed to low and add both flours, baking powder, baking soda, vanilla, and chocolate; mix until well combined.
3. Using a 4-ounce scoop for larger cookies or a 1-ounce scoop for smaller cookies, scoop cookie dough onto prepared baking sheets, about 2 inches apart. Bake until lightly browned, but still soft, about 20 minutes for larger cookies and about 15 minutes for smaller cookies. Cool slightly on baking sheet.

Confessions of a Shopaholic!


Hi! I'm so sorry (again) for not writing here in so much time, this time I promise I will write more often in my blog, at least once a week, It's just that I had been to busy with all the exams and homework of the school. But here I am and this time I'm going to talk about a great book I just finish for second time, yes I read this book twice because its kind of the best book I had ever read.
Confessions Of A Shopaholic!! This amazing book is about Rebecca Bloomwood, a finacial reporter who lives in London with her best friend Suze, the thing is that Rebecca love to shop (as all of us:) ) but she buys more that she can pay. I'm not going to tell you anything else because I will ruin you the entire book.
One of the thing I like the most about this book was that is pretty real and have a pretty great end, I have only read the first one :( I have to wait until I travel on summer vacations to get the other four: Shopaholic takes Manhattan, Shopaholic Ties the Knot, Shopaholic and Sister and last but not least Shopaholic and baby.
I'ts my recomendation for you! Hope you read it and enjoy it as much as I did!
XOXO
