Biscoff Oatmeal Double Chocolate Chip Cookies


I had two jars of Biscoff Spread open in the cabinet. I don’t know how that happened, but I didn’t want them to go to waste. So I dutifully used one jar to make some cookies. I made some similar cookies the other day and they were good, but a little too sweet. So I fiddle with the recipe a little. Switched some things, added others. It’s like being a scientist. Sometimes you just have to find the right formula.

The ingredients are quite simple. You may have these in your pantry all ready.

I could eat them just like this. I know raw eggs are bad for you, but I grew up licking all my mom’s cake batter bowls and I am still here to talk about it.

Bottom line, these cookies came out like I wanted, not too sweet. They had plenty of Biscoff flavor and the two chocolates blended in well as the cookie melted in my mouth. Mmmm, Mmmm, good!

Brussels Sprouts, Momofuku-style

I’ve been testing out a couple Thanksgiving recipes (my contributions to Thursday’s dinner) and was floored by this brussels sprouts recipe. If you’re still planning a side dish, I submit this one as a contender.

This recipe is by David Chang of Momofuku fame. Enough said, maybe?
If not, consider the brilliance behind this recipe: it take a standard fall/winter ingredient and infuses it with a lively combination of tart, spicy, sweet, and savory, effectively transforming stodgy old brussels sprouts into a stunner. And a delectable one at that. I’m all for food makeovers.
Anyway, this one’s going on the Thanksgiving spread—and winter rotation. I hope you give it a try!

BRUSSELS SPROUTS, MOMOFUKU-STYLE
Adapted from Momofuku via Food52
Serves 4
Ingredients:
2 lbs. Brussels sprouts
2 Tbsp vegetable oil
1/2 cup chopped cilantro leaves
For the vinaigrette:
2 Tbsp thinly-sliced cilantro stems
1/2 cup fish sauce
1/4 cup water
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
Juice of 1 lime
1/4 cup sugar
1 garlic clove, minced
1 to 3 red bird’s-eye chiles, thinly sliced, seeds intact
Directions:
Combine all the ingredients for the vinaigrette and set aside (it can be made up to a week in advance if stored in the fridge).
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Trim the sprouts, cutting off the dry part of the stem and peeling away any yellow or loose leaves. Dry very well. Cut the sprouts in halves, large ones in quarters. Toss them with the oil, then lay them, cut sides down, in one layer on a large baking sheet (you may need two). Roast for about 15 minutes, then, if they’re browning, flip them with a spatula. Continue roasting until they’re tender and nicely brown, another 10 minutes or so.
When ready to serve, toss with dressing to taste and cilantro leaves.
