Happy Teacher's Day

Baked Chocolate cookies and Holick Doggies cookies for The teachers.

Instead of giving Roses, we decided to make cookies instead.

For total of 10 teachers, we made 3 batches since morning.

The girls helped out, at least for the appreciation of their teachers.

chocolate Chips Cookies

Yummy ..Chocolate Cookies.
Kinda of popular tea snacks for both adults & children.

My sis in law was thinking of Home made cookies for this
coming Teachers Day.

The result is good, not the chewy type.
Quite crispy and lots of chocolate chips in it.

Lavender (薰衣草) Cookies

Yes, lavender cookies..i dare not try recipes that using lavender as many feedbacks that it taste like soap and a bit of bitterness aftertaste.

As it's said in this article whatscookingamererica, a little goes a long way, so decide to try this recipe by Fresh from the Oven.

The dough was a bit too wet after 30 mins of refrigeration so i addeded 1 tablespoon of flour and

put in the freezer for another 15 mins. Perhap i have added too much butter due to the guessimation of tablespoon.

I 've also cut down the amount of lavender to half and the result is too mild of smell and abit too sweet for me.

However, it's defintely a keeper for festival baking's gift
