Peanut butter cookies and oatmeal raisin cookies are rather common. You can easily get them from the bakeries. If you love them both, have you ever wonder what would the cookie taste like, when you put them together and generate the ultimate peanut butter oatmeal cookies?

Here I am to try it out! I’ve made some changes with the original recipe. Presenting to you the peanut butter oatmeal raisin chocolate chip cookies!! What a mouthful :)

Ingredients:
1/2 cup shortening
1/2 cup margarine, softened
1 cup packed brown sugar
3/4 cup white sugar
1 cup peanut butter
2 eggs
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup quick-cooking oats
1/4 cup raisins
1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. In a large bowl, cream together shortening, margarine, brown sugar, white sugar, and peanut butter until smooth. Beat in the eggs one at a time until well blended. Combine the flour, baking soda, and salt; stir into the creamed mixture. Mix in the oats, raisins, and chocolate chips until just combined.
3. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheets. Flatten the dough lightly with a spoon.
4. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes in the preheated oven, or until just light brown. Don’t over-bake.
5. Yield ~ 36 cookies. Cool and store in an airtight container.

These cookies are very flavourful. If you’re the kind of person who likes a bit of everything and always wanted to try something new. This is the recipe for you! Happy trying :)

I was first introduced to quiche at the residence meal hall, in my first year of university. Thereafter, I tasted different homemade quiches and found them delightful. Below is a broccoli quiche recipe that I’ve tried:

Ingredients:
2 tbsp butter
1 medium onion (minced)
1 tsp garlic (minced)
2 cup fresh broccoli (chopped)
1/2 cup white mushrooms (sliced)
2 Pillsbury crescent rolls
1 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
4 eggs (well beaten)
1 1/2 cup milk
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 tbp butter (melted)

Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. Roll out the crescent roll to make pie crust.
3. Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add onions, garlic, mushrooms, and broccoli. Cook slowly, stirring occasionally until the vegetables are soft. Spoon vegetables into crust and sprinkle with cheese.
4. Combine eggs and milk. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in melted butter. Pour egg mixture over vegetables and cheese.
5. Bake in preheated oven about 40 minutes, or until centre has set.

Overall, this is a great recipe! I’ll probably make a thinner pie crust next time, or prepare it from scratch rather than using the crescent rolls.
