It occurred on me in my last donut making spree, that I could make churros and honey crullers simultaneously. Because basically both crullers and churros begin with a choux pastry. And what’s better than making one deep fried treat?! Making two.
There are oatmeal chocolate chip cookies and then are oatmeal chocolate chip cookies. I can’t really tell you why this particular recipe of somewhat conventional ingredients is so fantastic. But it is a really, really good cookie!
Since mango made its way into guacamole around here, mango guacamole has been the only guacamole in our home! When we make guac, it’s mango guacamole. Its delish and the perfect balance of sweet, spicy, tangy and creamy!
