Peanøttsmør og sjokolade. Kan det bli bedre?

Peanut Butter-Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

Makes about 16 cookies

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
1 stick (½ cup) unsalted butter, at room temperature
½ cup creamy peanut butter
½ cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup light brown sugar
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
1 egg
½ cup rolled oats
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.

2. Whisk together the flour, baking soda and salt; set aside.

3. On medium speed, cream together the butter, peanut butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar and vanilla extract, about 3 minutes. Add the egg and beat to combine. On low speed, gradually add the flour until just combined. Stir in the oats, and then the chocolate chips.

4. Use a large cookie scoop (3 tablespoons) and drop dough onto prepared baking sheets about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10 minutes, or until the cookies are lightly golden. Cool completely on the baking sheet and then store in an airtight container at room temperature.

Wow. Fantastiske muffins.

Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins

2/3 cup sugar
grated zest and juice of 1 lemon
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup sour cream
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted and cooled
2 tablespoons poppy seeds

Center a rack in the oven and preheat the oven to 400F. Butter or spray the 12 molds in a regular-size muffin pan or fit the molds with paper muffin cups.

In a large bowl, rub the sugar and lemon zest together with your fingertips until the sugar is moist and the fragrance of lemon strong. Whisk in the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. In a large glass measuring cup or another bowl, whisk the sour cream, eggs, vanilla, lemon juice and melted butter together until well blended. Pour the liquid ingredients over the dry ingredients and, with the whisk or a rubber spatula, gently but quickly stir to blend. Don't worry about being thorough - a few lumps are better than over mixing the batter. Stir in the poppy seeds. Divide the batter evenly among the muffins cups.

Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, or until the tops are golden and a thin knife inserted into the center of the muffins comes out clean. Transfer the pan to a rack and cool for 5 minutes before carefully removing each muffin from its mold.

GLAZE: Powdered sugar and lemon juice.

YUMMY!

Caesardressing uten rått egg. Men like god.

Creamy Caesar Salad Dressing Recipe

While not part of the original recipe, a creamy Caesar dressing based on mayonnaise and Parmesan cheese has become the popular solution over the years. Here’s a delicious recipe, courtesy of McCormick. Remember that freshly-grated Parmesan cheese, freshly-minced garlic and freshly-squeezed lemon juice make a big difference.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic or
    McCormick Garlic with Extra Virgin
    Olive Oil
  • 1 to 2 anchovy fillets, mashed
  • 1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire
    sauce
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • 1 package (10 ounces) torn
    Romaine lettuce
  • 1 cup croutons
  • 1 head romaine

  • Fresh-ground black pepper to taste
  • Optional broiled/grilled chicken strips or shrimp (for a main dish salad)

Preparation

  1. Mix mayonnaise, Parmesan cheese, lemon juice, garlic anchovies, Dijon mustard and Worcestershire sauce in small bowl until well blended. Stir in milk. For a thinner (and less caloric) dressing, add more milk. Refrigerate dressing until ready to use.

  2. To serve, toss lettuce and croutons in large bowl. Add dressing; toss to coat well.

  3. Sprinkle with fresh black pepper from a peppercorn grinder and additional Parmesan cheese, if desired.

  4. For Chicken or Shrimp Caesar Salad, top with grilled chicken or shrimp. Some people add bacon and hard-boiled eggs, but this is a Cobb Salad-Caesar Salad fusion.
