Ohhh them! We have them at Christmas, and I never really know what they're called. Yum.
The gingerbread house in Hansel and Gretel was made out of them. FACT.
Probably.

We used to have these chocolate wafter sticks at Christmas when we were kids. I discovered a few years ago that they are called corinthians- although I'm still not sure if that is just a brand name. When I was a child I genuinly thought they were called Christmas sticks. Not sure why, I don't recall any of the adults around calling them that.

Today I am baking brown sugar cookies with Werther's toffee pieces scattered through them. Hopefully yum.

These are insane.

In a good way?
Are you about to go into a sugar coma?

Oh I have a really really easy recipe for non-cooks if anyone is interested. I'll share it anyway.

Fresh tegliatelle (supermarket bought)
Cooked big prawns (shelled, obv)
Blockly (chopped into really small bits)
Boiling water
Sweet chilli sauce

Stirfry or sautee the brockerleigh on medium/hight heat for 5 minutes, reduce heat, add prawns. Cook pasta in boiling water for aprox 5 minutes. Add biiig glug of sweet chilli to prawns and brock-lee, strain off pasta, mix, eat.

It's really really delicious and to someone who hasn't seen you cook it it seems quite impressive.

A reaaaally good way. I am trying not to eat too many.

Corr.

The toffees don't add much, but I've never been able to make chewy chocolate chip cookies. Now I could!

I don't like prawns, but that recipe still sounds rather nice.
Sweet chilli... *drool*

Chewy ones are the BEST.

I used this recipe that you can add toffee/chocolate chips/raisins or whatever to if anyone is interested. http://joythebaker.com/2011/09/brown-sugar-cookies/
I am slightly in love with her.

You can also do the exact same recipe but substitute out prawns in favour of chicken and chorizo.

CHORIZO! <3
