Weekend...

Hi, 

Finally Saturday! Merry Christmas to you all.... of course who is celebrating this one. Because in this multi - national environment we have double celebration. I had a great time with my family and friends. I even had a little bit of time to make one kind of a cookies- Christmas classic.

Here is the recipe: 

CHOCOLATE CRINKLES RECIPE 

Prep time: 4 hours, 15 minutes

Cook time: 20 minutes    

Yield: Makes approximately 50 cookies

Ingredients

• 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 1/2 cups white granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup vegetable oil
• 4 eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon espresso powder (optional)
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup confectioners’ sugar

Method

1 In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (though you can do this with a wooden spoon, too) beat together the cocoa powder, white sugar, and vegetable oil until it comes together into a shiny, gritty, black dough of sorts.

2 Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing for 30 seconds each. Add the vanilla and beat in thoroughly.

3 In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and espresso powder if using. Mix into the chocolate mixture on low speed until just combined. Do not over beat. Cover the dough with plastic wrap and chill the dough for four hours or overnight.

4 Preheat the oven to 350°F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Place the confectioner's sugar in a wide bowl. Using a rounded teaspoon get clumps of the chilled dough and roll them into 1-inch (2.5 cm) sized balls using your hands. Roll the balls in the confectioner's sugar and place on the cookie sheets (you should be able to get 12-16 on each sheet).

5 Bake at 350°F for 10-12 minutes. Allow to cool a minute or two on the sheets before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Caos, 

Konacno je subota! Sretan Bozic svima koji slave. Posto zivimo u multi- kulti sredini pa slavimo dva puta. Divno sam se provela sa svojom porodicom i prijateljima. Cak sam uspela i da ispecem jednu vrstu kolaca - klasicni Bozicni kolacici. Evo recepta:

RASPUKNUTI KEKSICI (MOJA VERZIJA)


SASTOJCI:
60 g maslaca
200g tamne cokolade
100g secera
2 jaja
2 kasicice ekstrakta vanilije
200g glatkog brasna
na vrh viljuske soli
pola kasicice praska za pecivo
50g secera u prahu za valjanje kuglica

KORAK PO KORAK

Na pari rastopite cokoladu i maslac dok ne dobijete jednolicnu smesu. Jaja i secer dobro promiksajte, Dodajte vaniliju i otopljenu cokoladu i sve dobro promesajte. U posudi promesajte brasno, so i prasak za pecivo, pa dodajte u smesu sa cokoladom, dobro promesajte.
Posudu prekrijte plasticnom folijom, stavite u frizider najmanje 5 sati ili preko noci. Secer u prahu prosijte, plehove oblozite pek papirom, pecnicu zagrejte na 170 stepeni. Lagano pobrasnite ruke i oblikujte kuglice velicine oraha. Svaku dobro uvaljajte u secer u prahu, otresite ostatak secera i slazite na pleh. Pecite ih cca 10 minuta, sredina keksica kad popucaju mora ostati meka. Ostavite da se ohlade i pospremite u limenu kutiju.

Kombinacija: Love Elfs kapa, Top Shop torba, sako M&S, Stradivarius bluza, Magazzini Del Sale prsluk.
