Peanut Butter Cookies

You may have noticed by now that I love peanut butter, especially when it's with chocolate! I adapted this recipe from the Hummingbird Bakery cookbook.

Makes 12

110g margerine
200g caster sugar
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
100g peanut butter
160g self raising flour

-Preheat the oven at 180 degress
-cream the butter and sugar
-add the peanut butter, vanilla and egg and mix
-add the flour
-*optional* add 75g dark chocolate, chopped (I had less).
-Bake for approx 10 minutes or until brown on the edges.

Mine turned out a little undercooked so they were chewy but still very yummy.

Baking with Bobbet

Yesterday It was time for another baking session with Bobbet. The the theme this time was Oreos.
I would say it was the most disaster-free session we've had, would you agree Bobbet?

Our inspiration was...

and apart from a few tweaks with the sweets used, these were the results....

and I think they turned out pretty well! Unfortunately I'm a perfectionist so ended up doing most of the decorating but I couldn't have done it without Bobbet because she is an expert at splitting the Oreos without breaking them.

We did have a lot of Oreo carnage though!

We also made cookies...

which we decorated in various ways...

Bobbet made a legendary Weasley and a headless man! All in all it was good, very tasty, fun.
