Square Chocolate Chip Cookies




 After Pesach, I was in a hurry to make something with real flour in it.  We had been happy with our Passover treats and certainly, they are as good as our gluten-free baked goods.  There is a nut cookie, I made that is better than most cookies, of any kind, we have eaten, over the years.  It was basically made from ground nuts. 

I wanted to bake for my class.  I know, with the beautiful weather, sitting in class is a challenge.  I know, I would rather be outside in the fresh air and certainly ten year olds would rather be, playing ball

I  found this recipe on Culinary Bric a Brac,  Barbara made it in the frying pan, she baked in and it was billed a one pan cookie.  I was more traditional and doubled her recipe and made it, in two 9 inch square pans.
Square Chocolate Chip Cookies

Ingredients:

8 tablespoons oil
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 egg
1 1/2 cups  flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup chocolate chips

Method:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
 
In a medium sized bowl, combine oil and sugars and vanilla.

Whisk the egg  and add to the oil and sugar mixture. Mix. Add flour, baking soda, and salt and stir carefully until smooth. Stir in chocolate chips. 

Place in the oven for 15-20 minutes or until golden on the top and around the edges.

Thai Chicken San Choy Bau

It says, "thai" so I have to like the Thai Chicken San Choy Bau that we are making this week in our Donna Hay Wednesday group.  It was a bit spicy and the chopped chicken was a nice change of pace. Kayte selected this recipe from On the Shelf on page 124.   I tried it with the greens and it was very good and then I put it on spaghetti and it was spectacular.  My toddler granddaughter even liked it.  Must have been the hot sauce. I used romaine for the greens and I subbed in red pepper and added some Sirracha to spice it up to make up for the real chilis. Do check out the other cooks' dishes at our   Wednesday with Donna Hay site.

Brussels Sprouts - Power Food - Re-post

Another week, another vegetable for our Power Food group, a bunch of women who strive for healthy eating with the most delicious dishes. Each blog is inspiration . Each week, we choose a recipe based on the power food which comes from the book, Power Foods, 150 delicious recipes with the 38 healthiest ingredients from the editors of Whole Living magazine. Brussels sprouts like broccoli and cabbage are cruciferous. This group offers a unique composition of antioxidants that may provide several health benefits. Brussels sprouts are low in calories and offer protein, vitamins and minerals to help build a healthy human. My first issue with brussels sprouts is that it took me years to spell it correctly. Each time, it came up, in writing, and I admit, that was not too often, I would stare into space asking myself does brussel get an S, at the end or is it sprout that gets the S. For some reason, I could not remember that both end with that S. I am happy to tell you, I overcame thi

Carrot Cake _ Power Food - repost

Another week, another vegetable for our Power Food group, a bunch of women who strive for healthy eating with the most delicious dishes. Each blog is inspiration . Each week, we choose a recipe based on the power food which comes from the book, Power Foods, 150 delicious recipes with the 38 healthiest ingredients from the editors of Whole Living magazine. That week, we concentrated on carrots. I like to check out our vegetable, not only for health benefits, but also for the names of their sisters. Carrots are related to parsnips, fennel, parsley, anise, caraway, cumin and dill. I didn't have a clue about many of these. I, have never seen carrots of other colors or at least, if I had, I didn't know, they were carrots. I am going to a good produce store, looking for purple or red carrots, to start my search. It is fun, shopping when purposely looking for new vegetables. I have definitely expanded my horizons. When, I was thinking about what to make with carrots, I
