  • How's everyone's weekend baking going? I'm hoping I'll get inspired to start baking all the holiday treats today. I grew up calling these sour cream cookies with cream cheese frosting Bradshaw Cookies. You can grab the full recipe (including the frosting) here: https://megiswell.com/bradshaw-cookies-a-sour-cream-cookie-with-cream-cheese-frosting/ The link is in my profile too @megiswell Bradshaw Cookies 2 cups sugar 1 cup butter (salted), room temperature 2 eggs 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 12 ounces sour cream 1 teaspoon baking soda 6 cups flour 1 teaspoon salt 3 teaspoons baking powder Instructions Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. In a large bowl, beat the sugar and butter on high speed with an electric mixer until smooth. Add the eggs and vanilla and beat on medium speed until just combined. In a separate small bowl, mix the sour cream and baking soda together. Set aside. In a medium bowl, combine the flour, salt, and baking powder together. Alternate beating in the sour cream mixture and the flour mixture into the creamed sugar and butter until everything is combined. Roll out the dough onto a lightly floured surface until it is 1/4 of an inch thick. Cut out the dough into various shapes. Take the leftover dough, roll it into a ball, and roll it out again to cut out more shapes. Repeat until there is no dough left. Bake on cookie sheets for 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to cooling racks and let the cookies cool completely before frosting. Store unfrosted cookies in an airtight container or in a ziplock bag. #holidaybaking #bakeandshare #bakersgonnabake #bakefromscratch #thebakefeed #bakeit #thefeedfeedbaking @thefeedfeed.baking #sweetcuisines #thesugarfiles #marthabakes #thefeedfeed @thefeedfeed #f52food #thekitchn #shareyourtable #imsomartha #foodblogfeed @foodblogfeed #heresmyfood @food #eattheworld #cookit #lifeandthyme #beautifulcuisines #hautecuisines #wprecipemaker #foodphotography #bhgfood #mycommontable #bareaders #rslove #realsimple #megiswell
  • I've been in an anti-baking, anti-cooking, anti-socializing, anti-social media mood since Thanksgiving and I'm trying to get out of it. I think having cravings will probably do it for me and right now, I'm missing my favorite Christmas cookie of all time: Ritz Cracker Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies. Ingredients 60 Ritz Crackers Creamy peanut butter (not natural peanut butter) 12 ounces milk or dark melting chocolate 8 ounces white melting chocolate 6 ounces butterscotch baking chips Instructions Make peanut butter sandwiches with two Ritz Crackers and peanut butter. Melt the milk/dark chocolate, white chocolate, and butterscotch baking chips together in a double boiler. Dip sandwiches in melted mixture and put on a cookie sheet. Once the sheet is full, place it in the freezer until the cookies are frozen. Store in a zip lock bag in the freezer. They can be stored at room temperature as well. #christmascookies #holidaybaking #bakeandshare #bakersgonnabake #bakefromscratch #thebakefeed #bakeit #thefeedfeedbaking @thefeedfeed.baking #sweetcuisines #thesugarfiles #marthabakes #thefeedfeed @thefeedfeed #f52food #thekitchn #shareyourtable #imsomartha #foodblogfeed @foodblogfeed #heresmyfood @food #eattheworld #cookit #lifeandthyme #beautifulcuisines #hautecuisines #wprecipemaker #foodphotography #bhgfood #mycommontable #bareaders #realsimple #megiswell
  • Vegan Matcha Frosted Sugar Cookies Ingredients Cookies 1/3 cup refined coconut oil, melted 6 tablespoons chickpea brine 1 (15.25 ounce) box vanilla cake mix Frosting 1/2 cup cashew or other nut milk 1/2 teaspoon matcha + 1/2 teaspoon more, separated 1/4 cup raw cashews 2.5 tablespoons raw cacao butter, finely chopped 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 and 3/4 cups powdered sugar + 1/4 cup more if needed crushed pistachios for sprinkled topping raw turbine sugar for sprinkled topping Instructions Cookies Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Mix together the coconut oil and chickpea brine. Add the cake mix and mix until smooth. Roll dough into 1 inch balls and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake 10 to 13 minutes or until slightly golden. Let cookies cool for 5 minutes on the sheet and then transfer to a cooling rack. Cool completely before frosting. Frosting Combine the cashew milk and matcha powder in a high-speed blender and blend until smooth. Add the cashews and blend until smooth-it will be a semi-thick liquid. Pour into a bowl and set aside. In a glass bowl, melt the cacao butter in 20-second intervals in the microwave. Add to the cashew and matcha mixture and blend with a hand mixer until smooth. Add the vanilla extract and another 1/2 teaspoon matcha powder and blend until smooth. Add the powdered sugar in 1/4 cup portions, blending between each. Keep going until the frosting is the right consistency, about 1 and 3/4 cups to 2. Recipe Notes makes 19 cookies frosting makes about 1 and 1/4 cups and I used a 1/2 tablespoon on each cookie
  • Wash down all the Christmas cookies with a White Chocolate Mocha. Hit the Save button to keep the recipe OR follow the link in my profile @megiswell ⬇️ https://megiswell.com/white-chocolate-latte/ Ingredients 1-ounce white chocolate melting wafers (13 wafers, 32 grams, or a little less than 1/4 cup) 1/3 cup milk 2 ounces coffee 1/3 cup heavy whipping cream (optional) white chocolate shavings (optional) crushed candy canes (optional) Instructions Brew the coffee in a Moka or espresso machine. If you are topping your drink with whipped cream, beat the heavy whipping cream in a stainless steel or glass bowl on high speed until the cream is the consistency you desire (stiff peaks vs. thick and creamy, etc.). Set aside. Add the white chocolate and milk to a small saucepan and turn the heat on medium-low. Mix together until the chocolate is melted. Turn the heat off, and use a milk frother to froth the milk. Add the coffee to your mug. Pour the frothed milk into the coffee. Top with the whipped cream and dust with white chocolate shavings and crushed peppermints. #christmasdrinks #holidaydrinks #whitechocolatemocha #feedfeed @thefeedfeed #foodblogfeed @foodblogfeed #heresmyfood @food #thekitchn #cookCL #f52grams #eattheworld #foodwinewomen #foodandwine #lifeandthyme #beautifulcuisines #hautecuisines #onthetable #wprecipemaker #foodstyling #foodphotography #bhgfood #saveurmag #marthafood #mycommontable #onmytable #tastemade #bareaders #theartofslowliving #rslove #realsimple #mywilliamssonoma

  • The shatter on these pastries was insane, and messy in the best possible way 😂⠀ ⠀ 📍 La Farine Boulangerie Patisserie in #oaklandca ⠀ ⠀ This weekend, I'll be celebrating a friend's birthday in SF by eating ramen, mochi, soft serve, and hotpot while attempting to pretend I'm karaoke singing.⠀ ⠀ Because the air quality is so bad, most of the day we will be snacking on Japanese snacks while hanging out inside an air-filtered apartment, but I'll be rocking a mask anytime I go outside 😷⠀ ⠀ What are your plans?⠀ ⠀ #eater #eatersf #f52grams #SFguide #bestofbayarea #oaklandeats #oakland #bayareafoodie #oldoakland #sfeats #oaklandandloveit #bestfoodinoakland #sffoodie #eattheworld #foodandwine #lifeandthyme #foodphotography #eeeeeats #saveurmag #mycommontable #tastemade #huffposttaste #buzzfeast #bareaders #vscofood #theartofslowliving #rslove #realsimple #cntravelereats
