Three types: chocolate chip cookies

This time in England, I baked less than usual. The simple reason is that my sister's house isn't near a supermarket, lol.

Biscoff Cheesecake

Biscoff biscuits are biscuits from Belgium. They have the aroma of caramel and cinnamon. Besides the sweetness, they also have the delicious bitterness of caramel. The biscuits are very crispy. They are delicious when eaten with tea or coffee. But aside from biscuits, another thing I would like you to buy and eat is "Biscoff Spread". My sister likes to eat them by sandwiching 2 Biscoff biscuits together with Biscoff Spread to make a super Biscoff sandwich!!! 

But these biscuits are not only delicious when eaten plain, but also yummy when used to make desserts. And today, I will share with you another dessert. Hehe.

This recipe is a very easy-to-make cheesecake. It only uses a few ingredients. The main ingredients of this recipe are cream cheese, Biscoff biscuits, Biscoff Spread, whipping cream, and butter. That's all. (Vanilla is optional, but I believe everyone already has salt at home.)

It is a rare cheesecake (no-bake cheesecake), but it does not require gelatin to set. Because the cake will become set from the cream cheese and spread. Plus, the spread is already sweet, so we don't have to add more sugar.

This recipe is suitable for Biscoff lovers, lol. Because there are Biscoff in every part, from the base, the cheesecake, the spread for topping, and Biscoff biscuits for decoration!!!!!!!. Okay, if anyone is a Biscoff lover, let's make it together.

Caramel walnut cookies

A delicious cookie that's full of butter, nuts, and caramel.

Coating walnuts in sugar before adding them to the cookie dough helps reduce the bitterness of the walnuts and adds a caramel-like aroma.

Making by cutting the butter into the flour mixture,  this method creates a cookie with a crispy and crumbly texture. The liquid we use in this recipe is egg yolk; it adds richness and doesn't cause gluten development. 

The Sugared walnuts are not only used for adding delicious flavor to our desserts, but you can also eat them as a snack. ^^

If you want to plan ahead, you can make the dough, cover it, and freeze it for 2 months.
