Thank you auntie for sharing your recipe!

Finally I was able to give it a try it was fantastic. As like me who loves the taste of plain, not soft but in mouth melting cookies and of course easy to make cookies believe me this is one you can’t quit and I will share with you some changes and creativity’s to try with this recipe for later I like to play and make SURPRISE recipes a lot.

Original recipe:

3 tablespoons finely grounded nuts

3 tablespoons powdered sugar

1 cup sunflower oil

2-2/5 cups wheat flour

How to do:

Preheat your Oven to 170 c

Mix all dry ingredients together

Add the oil and knead the dough little bit until it forms a nice dough

Take 1 or 1/2 tablespoon of the dough shape it into balls

Put them on non-stick baking sheets you don’t have to space them much they don’t rise or melt just 1 cm is enough.

Bake them 10-15 minutes they don’t have to turn pink and never brown attention please!

Take them from the oven and let them cool for 10 minutes

Dust them with powdered sugar or mix of powdered sugar and cinnamon.

Put some SURPRISES and creativity to your recipes!

I put almonds instead of nuts you can put any kind you like or as like me what kind you have at home.

I add some unsweetened finely shreded coconut flakes or anise seeds instead of coconut shreds or any kind you like.

I think if  you like more flavor than plain cookies use organic coconut oil or sesame or any kind you like.

I think next time definitely I will try anise seeds version and coconut oil version mmmm sounds yummy.

I also tried to shape them like fingers as you can see in the picture do as your creativity allows you you will be SURPRISED.

Until next time with more SURPRISES!

Find the creativity around you

Today you will see how to recycle the old or unused things at your home with out spending a lot of time plus no money just with your creativity you can make your home look nicer and garbage or unused items free!

But How??

Here is how. I find many baskets and 1 old bowl and some small tables they were unused and thrown here and there always annoying me anyway I just already had the houseplants they were all in their own flowerpots and I just put them inside the baskets and in the bowl and then on the small tables as you can see in the pictures below and I had one deep basket left and few children’s toys so I diced to put all of them inside the basket that’s it !

It looks much much better and nicer than before I’m happy now there is no garbage and unused items around me to annoy me anymore.

Oh! and this huge mug too it was a gift that wasn’t used for a long time and now I used it as fruit holder on counter top the counter top now is much nicer than before!

So these are just few very easy examples to just remind your creativity is always around you just it wait’s you to call it and use it.

Happy creativity’s!
