  • In a mixing bowl, using and electric hand mixer set on medium speed, whip together butter, heavy cream and custard powder until smooth and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Stir in powdered sugar and blend until mixture is smooth and creamy, about 1 minute (mixture may seem dry at first but should start to come together).

  • Melt semi-sweet chocolate along with butter in a heat proof bowl, set over a pot of simmering water. Spread mixture into an even layer over filling layer, cover with plastic wrap and chill in refrigerator for 10 minutes until chocolate has set. Cut into squares, store in an airtight container.

Mint Tray

Turn mints into a serving tray! Just arrange mints on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper, and bake at 350 for 8-10 minutes. Let completely cool at room temperature. Great idea for a plate of cookies that you don't have to get back.

Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Bites

 NO FLOUR, NO OIL, NO WHITE SUGAR
Ingredients:
 1 1/4 cups canned* chickpeas, well-rinsed and patted dry with a paper towel
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 cup + 2 tablespoons (165 grams) natural peanut butter (can use PB2 from gym to make healthier, check your labels)
1/4 cup (80 grams) honey (agave would be amazing too!)
 1 teaspoon baking powder** a pinch of salt if your peanut butter doesn’t have salt in it
1/2 cup (90 grams) chocolate chips
 * My can was a 400 gram can, 240 grams without the water, and I used all but a few tablespoons
 ** If you need grain-free baking powder, you can use 1 part cream of tartar + 1 part baking soda + 2 parts arrowroot.
Directions: Preheat your oven to 350°F / 175°C. Combine all the ingredients, except for the chocolate chips, in a food processor and process until very smooth. Make sure to scrape the sides and the top to get the little chunks of chickpeas and process again until they’re combined.
 Put in the chocolate chips and stir it if you can, or pulse it once or twice. The mixture will be very thick and sticky. With wet hands, form into 1 1/2″ balls. Place onto a piece of parchment paper. If you want them to look more like normal cookies, press down slightly on the balls. They don’t do much rising. Bake for about 10 minutes. Yields about fourteen 1 1/2″ cookie dough balls.
*** Don't even try with regular peanut butter! They'll come out oily. You MUST use natural peanut butter

CREAM CHEESE COOKIES

CREAM CHEESE COOKIES

1  cup sugar   
1/2 teaspoon salt   
1  cup  softened butter   
3  ounces  softened cream cheese   
1/2 teaspoon  almond extract   
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract   
1    egg yolk   
2 1/4 cups flour   


Directions:
1 Mix sugar, salt, butter, cream cheese, almond and vanilla extract, and egg yolk together well. 
2 Stir in flour until well blended.  
3 Chill dough for at least 30 minutes (I've chilled mine a little less than 24 hours but I wouldn't suggest going over that.). 
4 After You've taken the dough out of the chilled area (sometimes I use the garage) Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. 
5 On a lightly floured surface roll out 1/3-1/2 of the dough. 
6 Cut the dough to holiday shapes and place on an ungreased pan. (The cookies do not expand very much while cooking, so you can place them close together.). 
7 Here's where you can use the egg white! Spread the egg white over the top of the cookie and add sprinkle if you would like, or leave them plain and add frosting later!  
8 Bake the cookies 10 minutes (or until they're a light brown). 
9. Let cookies cool completely before adding any frosting.
