Chocolate Chip Praline Cookies


Recipes / Wednesday, September 25th, 2013

It’s a midweek cookie recipe and these are a delicious addition to an afternoon cup of tea! I’ve got a cupboard full of different nuts and wanted to use the hazelnuts and you just have to team that up with some chocolate don’t you!

This is a very quick and easy recipe, they’re done in 30 minutes, leave them to cool (if you can resist) I’ve burnt my mouth so many times in the past from being an eager beaver and eating what I bake pretty much while it’s on the way from the oven to the kitchen worktop! I don’t think I’ll ever learn!

So, last night I didn’t get a chance to fall asleep during the meditation stage of Body Balance, we were all lying on our mats, totally relaxing, our instructor Soula had turned down the lights, the gentle music was playing and then just as soon as we were all settled, a PHONE started ringing, that real generic mobile ring tone you get, that’s truly quite irritating. Well, absolutely no one was moving to either answer it or switch it off and I just couldn’t stop giggling to myself as I knew that there was someone in the room who must have been holding their breath just wishing that it would stop. Still a great class though!

    1. Hi there. This is the recipe base I use for most of my cookie dough and it’s always been fine, but if you feel it’s too dry then I would add in another 1 tbsp of vegan margarine to loosen it up, or even a splash of almond/coconut milk, whichever you like best. Y
