These cookies were created for a good friend who did not like sweet cookies, and did not like the little Indian tidbits that she said were too deep fried. (Hmmm, when is anything deep fried "too deep fried"??? or anything but delicious though unhealthy.)
Anyway, I added chili flakes and spices into a really simple and plain mixture, and with a few toasted cumin seeds, it turned out to be the ideal snack for those who like a little oomph in a little bite.
(They go very well with beer. So I am told.)
These peanut cookies are about an inch in diameter. I use four various forms of peanuts to make them.The are really soft once you put them into your mouth,
Full of flavour and addictive. No regrets in trying these.
These cashewnut cookies are rich in flavour. You will feel like you are having rich and creamy cashews in your mouth.
They are great with a hot cup of coffee. You will find that you will not be able to stop at just two.
What can I say about my London Almonds.......... I put a full almond wrapped in a crunchy cookie cocoon, then fully dip them in thick rich chocolate.
Unlike some producers who sometimes just put half to a tiny sliver of almond. Or even worst, half a peanut (what an insult to our intelligence!!)...... Then to add insult to injury, they only put a little bit of chocolate on the top and this little deceit is covered up by the sides of paper cake cup.
Some even use low grade horrible tasting chocolate.......
Come on people, it is not only about making profits. It is about customers getting what they pay for.
I have been making these pineapple jam tarts since I was a little girl. I use to help Mum when she baked for Christmas. Later, I took over the role of chief jam tart maker.
When I was younger and needed the extra income to spend at Christmas time, I started making these tarts as a business. I did not advertise because I am my own worst critic, but as time went on, my little production spread by word of mouth.
Now I close my orders by the first week of November because I do not believe in making in bulk. When one over does something, and it no longer remains a pleasure, and becomes a chore. And one can never produce good work when the passion is not there.
(I only bake these twice a year, for Christmas and Chinese New Year for my Chinese friends.)
