Chocolaty snowballs – crispy outside, juicy inside!

With the snowballs not only chocoholics get their favourit.

With the chocolate snowballs there is today the last recipe for Christmas cookies. After all, is soon Christmas, and most cookies are baked or eaten anyway. The one or other tasty recipe more I have this year definitely for you, but no more biscuits.

The snowballs are again a recipe of simple variety. Dissolve chocolate and butter, stir in the rest, and even the cookies are almost done. Chill, round, icing sugar, baking and ready. 😉
Those who want to can use in the recipe only whole milk or dark chocolate. Someone like it a bit bitter, the other sweet. I choose some in between. So have fun with the last cookies for 2015.

Meringue Christmas trees – crunchy, colorful firs

Meringue Christmas trees are a simple splash of color on the plate of cookies.

The recipe for the meringue Christmas trees is once again one of the simpler ones. Baking cookies often remains egg white and no one really knows what to do with it. For this recipe you beat it easy with some sugar, make it green and make meringue trees therefrom. When decorating your own creativity is the limit. Finished are the cookies from the leftover egg whites.

The meringue trees are simple, crispy and a lovely pastry. Of course only people who like meringue also like this.

Rooibos Christmas Trees – Cookies with tea flavor

Rooibos Christmas Trees looking good, are crispy and delicious.

With the Rooibos Christmas Trees I have a recipe for cookies who are not so complex up to the decoration. In principle, there again cookies to cut out, only that the dough is once again particularly flavored. The Rooibos Christmas Trees are crunchy and have a touch of tea and vanilla. Of course it is also possible to use another tea if you have a favorite variety, and want to use this absolutely. But the rooibos vanilla tea fits very well.

The decoration is again most of the work, but it looks beautiful. If you want to make the whole without much effort, the glaze can also leave off. Of course, is no longer so beautiful.

Bacon Cookies mit Guinness – Herzhaft und süß!

Bacon Cookies mit Guinness – Herzhaft und süß!

Bacon Cookies hören sich erst mal komisch an, die sind aber total lecker.

Nachdem es gestern ein Rezept für Erdnussbutter Cookies gab, folgt heute das versprochene für die Bacon Cookies mit Guinness. Im ersten Moment hört es sich erst einmal ziemlich komisch an, in einen Cookie Bacon zu machen. Aber Bacon geht sehr gut mit Zucker zusammen und deshalb gibt es den Bacon heute in Cookies. Das ganze wird noch mit etwas Bier und Schokolade abgerundet und fertig sind die tollen Cookies.

Durch das karamellisieren des Bacons kommt natürlich ein Arbeitsschritt mehr dazu, wodurch das Rezept schon etwas Zeit in Anspruch nimmt. Aber es lohnt sich!

Natürlich ist das ganze nicht für Veganer oder Vegetarier, Sorry. 😉

Bacon Cookies with Guinness – hearty and sweet!

Bacon Cookies with Guinness sounds a little strange, but they are absolutely delicious.

Today follows the promised recipe for Bacon Cookies with Guinness, after the peanut butter cookies yesterday. At first it sounds pretty weird at once to make in a cookie Bacon. But Bacon goes very well together with the sugar and therefore there is the Bacon today in cookies. The whole is rounded off with some beer and chocolate and finished are great cookies.

With caramelize the Bacon there is a step more in the recipe which already takes some time to complete. But it is worth it!

Of course, all is not for vegans or vegetarians, Sorry. 😉
