Chocolatey Chocolate Chip Recipe #Creative Cookie Exchange


When we moved to Bay Area, my biggest concern was giving snacks to my Kiddo, as she was spending much longer time in School. Earlier, when we were in Anaheim, her School timing was less, and she was home by 2:30 in afternoon, so I never have to really bother about Snacks.. That time, only concern was her lunch time in School.

Though there was many things available in store. And I use to get those Snacks, for her.... But, then slowly, I realized I can only control her sugar and oil intake by making Snacks at home...So, I made my habit of baking or cooking snacks, every Saturday or Sunday, which will last atleast 1 week as her Snack... Sometimes, When I am having more time, I cook 1 Sweet and 1 Salty snack... Some of the Snacks, which I often are Soft Sugar Cookies, Nimki (Salty Biscuits), Baked Thekua, Cake pops and Chocolate Chip Cookies (you can click on the names o snack to check out the recipe). These are one of those Snacks, which never comes back from School ( Happy me).



This recipe, I got it from All Recipes website... But, I did some changes to suit my Kiddo's taste.. It's a very simple, and my go to recipe... Takes, only 5-7 minutes for preparation, and baking time is about 15-18 minutes. And, we are done.

Being a part of Creative group, " Creative cookie Exchange", gave me a lot of opportunity to learn different varieties of Cookies. This month's theme is Make Someone's Day Cookies! we chose some one in our lives that we loved and baked them cookies that they love! maybe you will feel inspired to bake someone that you love a cookie!

Cooking is an art... And presenting your food is another art... Well, I believe if food in front of you doesn't look appetizing to you, then you are not going to enjoy the food... So,most of the time, I try to present the meal beautifully, which attracts the family itself to the dinner table... Every month, I bake with Bread Bakers... Every time, I try to come out of my comfort zone, and try to bake something which is new to me... This month's theme is Yeast Flat breads... Being Indian, I always make Flat Breads, as it is our staple food..... So, I decided to bake something about which I have never heard off... And google landed me to this Italian Flat bread " Focaccia". It is the best bread I ever had... So, full of flavors, and delicious... I got this recipe from All Recipes .com .... But, altered it according to my taste... #BreadBakers is a group of bread loving bakers who get together once a month to bake bread with a common ingredient or theme....

Baked Peas Kachori #Breadbakers

I have very beautiful memories from my Childhood for all traditional foods... Peas used to be a seasonal vegetable when we were growing up... It wasn't like today, that frozen peas was so easily available throughout the year... Peas starts coming in the farmer's market, by the end of November.... But, it use to be very costly, and by the mid of December, the peas were abundantly available in all the Veggie's market.... We were staying in the rural area, and my mom used to buy Peas with cover in a bulk... Me and my sister, use to help her in peeling those Peas, and then she makes small portion packets, and freeze it.. So, that we can enjoy Peas even in summer.  So, these Kachori's became our weekend breakfast in Wintery months... I tried to make it as good as my mom, but then her cooking has a special touch of love, which makes the food much more tastier.... You can fry these Kachori's as well as bake them...  She use to make both of them, as my dad was...
