In the Kitchen

I know my husband missed me while I was away but I think he missed my baking more. I arrived home to a kitchen full of ingredients - waiting to be whipped up into something sweet. So that's just what I did yesterday. I made these classic peanut butter cookies.

Then from my new cookbook Cookies, I made a simple but delicious chocolate chip cookie.

1/2 cup butter

1 cup brown sugar

1 tsp vanilla

1 egg, lightly beaten

1 tbsp milk

1 3/4 cup flour

1 tsp baking powder

1 1/2 cup chocolate chips

Bake 350F for 15 minutes and enjoy!

And finally, to switch it up and as a super bowl special, I decided to make meatballs (for the first time). I was inspired by this recipe but altered it a little for my own version.

2 1/2 pounds ground beef

1 large onion, diced

1/2 cup dry bread crumbs

2 eggs, slightly beaten

4 cloves garlic, minced

2 tablespoon Italian seasoning

1 1/2 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

Bake 425F for 15 minutes.

Happy Super Bowl Sunday!!
