sticky, chewy and malty!

i love chewy cookies.
i loathe sandwich joints that give me hard crispy cookies.

they don't compliment my meal at all. after eating hearty sandwich, you want to rest and sweeten up, taste sugar and let your teeth sink into soft, chewy goodness.

on to the next note, i love Pioneer Woman's malted milk cookies. I made them once before and they were absolutely lovely. chocolatey and smooth, but they had the potential to be so much more. i aimed to have them melt in your mouth, must-have-seconds good.

so here it is, the cookies that were snapped up in record time in the office (where all my lovely test subjects as well as hardcore reviewers are) - Sticky Chewy Malted Milk Cookies - adapted from the pioneer woman herself!

Maple Syrup Pancake Muffins with Rose Icing

hello my pretty yet decadent friend

Ok, how could I even resist the thought of a maple syrup pancake IN a muffin? I was snooping around the internet looking for quirky recipes when I came across this absolutely wonderful idea of putting my favourite breakfast deal into a little muffin which I can carry around with me and share the love.

It's very comforting this creation, it gives you both the syrupy feeling of a good morning and yet the kick of a good evening. It makes everything in this world seem bearable - trust me. This muffin can literally END FEUDS.

So, I highly recommend everyone to either a) bake this or b) eat this or c) find/bribe/ someone to bake this then eat this - because this muffin will make you see colours again.

please ignore the funny coloured mexican fabric, it's one of my many flaws in photography!
