Once I perfected this recipe, I asked my best friend to come over. Her first reaction was gold! Her face lit up as if it was her birthday and she just got a brand new car as a gift. Lol! When she tasted it, she just said, “Thank you and I love you!” I asked her, if she was gonna eat strawberry and pineapple now, she only smiled and ate the whole thing. I think that’s a yes! Try this one out guys. I know you’re gonna love it!

Blueberry Biscuits

by Rebecca April 28, 2020
written by Rebecca

How are you? I hope you’re doing great! Once again, here I am sharing another recipe for you. I hope you like the biscuits. Well, who doesn’t? This is one of my favourite treats to make for my kids. You might put on a lot of work for this but I promise it’s gonna be worth it! So, what are you waiting for? Put on your apron and awaken the pastry master inside of you! Have fun baking!

Ingredients

BISCUITS:

2 cups Flour

4 teaspoons baking powder

1 cup milk, cold

1/3 cup sugar

5 tablespoons of butter (cold or frozen)

1 teaspoon salt

3 ounces blueberries, fresh or dried

GLAZE:

1 cup powdered sugar

1/8 cup water

1 teaspoon vanilla

1/2 teaspoon lemon juice

Instruction

Prepare the oven. Preheat to 450°F.

In a medium bowl, add salt, flour, sugar, and baking powder. Add cold milk to incorporate all the ingredients and stir until well-mixed.

Break to chunks the hard butter and spread gently and evenly on top of the dough as it starts to take form. Fold the dough and knead. Do this repeatedly until the dough is covered with butter. Then, gently fold the blueberries.

Sprinkle flour to your cutting board to prevent from sticking out. Then, move the dough and roll flat about 1/4 – 1/2 thick. If you prefer, you can make it thicker.

Cut about 6 blueberry biscuits with a cookie cutter.

At this point, the butter may start to melt. If this happens, put the dough back to the freezer for about 10-15 minutes.

Do not prolong the dough in the freezer. The baking powder may become inactive if it exceeds 20 minutes.

Bake in the oven for about 7-12 minutes.

Melt 1 tablespoon of low-fat butter.

Use a pastry brush to paint the biscuits with the melted butter.

In a small bowl, mix the glaze ingredients and sprinkle Blueberry Biscuits using a fork.

Two Ingredient Lemon Bars

by Rebecca April 28, 2020
written by Rebecca

Hi there! So, I woke up today craving for something sweet and smooth. I looked inside my drawer and there it was! Just the exact two things I needed to make this simple and amazing cake. Brings back a lot of memories. My best friend and I used to make this all the time throughout college. The times when we had money issues. This helped us get through those days. Okay, I’m being a bit dramatic but yeah it’s true. Good times indeed! Let’s go back to what happened earlier today. I was baking, right? A funny coincidence, my best friend called me to let me know that she was making the same cake. I mean, what are the odds, right? It’s good to have someone to share moments with. Now, I am sharing with you mine. Make this simple and delicious cake to be a part of your life. I sound lame, I know. Lol. But it’s just that this is too personal for me and the fact that I’m sharing it with you only means that I value you as well. Time to make some memories with your friends and family. I’m sure you’re gonna love it!

Ingredients

1 box angel food cake mix (I always use Betty Crocker)

2 cans (21 ounces each) lemon pie filling, I used Comstock pie filling

Powdered sugar

Instructions

Ready the oven then, preheat to 350 degrees F.

Bake for 25 minutes at 350 degrees or until you get a perfect brown colour at the top of your cake.

Let it sit on a wire rack to cool then, sprinkle with the powdered sugar. Enjoy!

Note:

What you need:

BANANA BREAD BARS

1 1/2 cups of sugar

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 tsp baking soda

3/4 tsp salt

1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

BROWN BUTTER FROSTING

1/2 cups butter

4 cups of powdered sugar

1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

3 Tbsp milk

Preparation:

Prepare the oven. Heat to 375 degrees. Now, grease and flour a 15×10-inch jelly roll pan.

For the Bars:

In a large bowl, beat sugar, sour cream, butter, and eggs until creamy. Put in the bananas and vanilla extract and blend them thoroughly with the other ingredients. Add flour, baking soda, salt, and blend for about 1 minute. This is optional, but at this point, you can stir in the walnuts.

For Frosting:

In a large saucepan, heat the butter over medium heat and let the butter turn a delicate brown. When done, remove from heat immediately.

Ingredients

  • Sandwich rolls (cut with one side intact)
  • Cooked Meatballs (you can use your favourite recipe or frozen, pre-made meatballs)
  • Pasta Sauce (go for either homemade or jarred, whatever you prefer)
  • Shredded Mozzarella Cheese

Instructions

Prepare the oven. Preheat to 400 degrees F. Spray the baking sheet with a cooking spray.

In a large pot, put in your homemade cooked meatballs or frozen cooked meatballs. Pour in your pasta sauce on top of the meatballs. Gently fold the meatballs with the sauce and heat on medium-low heat. Occasionally stir until the meatballs are heated thoroughly.

Fill a roll with meatballs, usually about 4-5 meatballs (depends on the meatball and roll size). Top with more pasta sauce. Carefully place filled sandwich rolls on the baking sheet. And top each sandwich with mozzarella cheese (add more cheese if preferred).

Finally, bake until cheese is melted and bubbly.

When ready to eat, serve with salad or chips. Or eat as is! And with our busy schedules, this is great as an on-the-go meal. So put it on your list of to-try-to-cook-meals and have a blast.

BEST CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

by Rebecca April 27, 2020
written by Rebecca

In their vocabulary, everyone needs a classic cookie chocolate cookie, and that is mine. It’s the best chocolate chip recipe. For many years, I’ve been making them and everyone who tries them agrees they’re delicious. For regular size cookies, you can use a medium cookie scoop. Furthermore, there are no funny ingredients, no chills, etc. It’s a simple, straightforward, incredibly delicious, doughy but still fully cooked, chocolate chip cookie. It is very sweet and buttery, crispy and chewy cookies.

Do not forget that you do not want to overcook these cookies because of all the instructions below. They look a bit undercook in the centre but will continue to cook once you remove them from the oven. Allow it to cool for 10 more minutes on the baking sheet before serving.

INGREDIENTS

2 c all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

½ teaspoon salt

1 c butter, barely melted but not too hot (see photo above)

¾ cup light brown sugar, packed

⅔ cup granulated sugar

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar

1 large egg

2 c semisweet chocolate chips (I used 1/2 chips and 1/2 chunks, but either is fine)

Coarse sea salt

Directions:

Preheat the oven up to 350 ° C. Line a parchment paper baking sheet.

Mix baking soda and salt in a medium bowl.

Beat butter, sugars, vanilla, and vinegar in a large bowl until smooth. Beat the egg and combine.

Mix the flour blend into the wet blend until mixed. Mix the chips.

Using a large cookie scoop, drop about three inches apart on the cookie sheet (about two tablespoons).

Bake for about 8 to 10 minutes, check if it looks light brown around the edges and looks underneath in the centre. Remove from the oven and sprinkle every cookie with a small amount of sea salt. Allow 10 minutes to sit on the sheet and cool off until you move to the rack.
