Crispy Christmas Biscuits!!!!!

Hello my beloved friends!!!!

I finally managed yesterday to cook a few of my favorite biscuits for Christmas and not only of course! Delicious, crispy and full of aroma biscuits that my daughter loves and my hubby eat a lot...and my friends...and my family... and so many others!

Actually is a really easy recipe to follow and with your imagination you can create masterpieces!

What will we need:
1 tea cup butter
3/4 tea cup of white sugar
1 big egg
3 tea cups flour
1 sugar spoon baking powder
1/2 sugar spoon salt
1 sugar spoon vanilla or orange icing (or whatever aroma you like)

Procedure:

In a bowl mix the butter and the sugar. Add the egg.

When the mixture is ready add the salt and the orange icing (or vanilla).

Put the baking powder in the flour and mix it and then add is slowly in the above mixture.

When the pastry is ready, put it in a bowl, cover it with membrane for cooking and leave it in the refrigerator for an hour to rest.

After an hour, you can create your biscuits by using cookie cutter in your beloved schema. 

Serve them with fine flour sugar or create a icing or even taste them without anything! They will be yummy in every way!

Happy cooking!!!!!

Aromatic Olive Oil!!!!

Hello my friends!

This is an amazing an amazing and really easy recipe to create a tasty aromatic olive oil. Believe me when the oil will be ready you will going to use it really often in your salads, your dishes or even taste it with bread!

So what will you need?  This is something depends on you...I mean what your favorite aroma are. 

The materials I used, are:

- Olive Oil

- Two garlic cloves

- Black pepper

- Red Pepper

- White Pepper

- Origan 

Put all of the above materials in a bottle and leave them for at least 10days. When you will open it again...you will love the aroma!!!!

Instead of Origan, you may use Rosemary or Thyme and the result will be also amazing!!!

You do not need to use too much of it, but a few drops in your salad or your food are just perfect. And if you are just too hungry to cook...then put a few drops in your bread and use also cheese or feta cheese or tomato and eat it as it is or bake it for a few minutes in your oven.

A really delicious and fast to make and of course healthy snack!!!!

Buon appetite!
