No Bake Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies
It's been a really hot summer right from the beginning and I don't feel motivated to switch on my oven. If you're in the northern hemisphere and wondering, in Australia our seasons are exactly oppsite of yours. I was on the look-out for no bake cookies and got the inspiration from Pinterest to create cookies with fillings in them. These chocolate peanut butter cookies are the easiest cookies ever. These are similar to truffles but a have a lot more texure and very delicious. You simply make a chocolate ganache and fold a combination of biscuit crumbs and nuts through it. Then just shape them and fill. You could experiment with a variety of nuts and fillings example, Biscoff, Nutella, white chocolate, jam and so on. I used melted peanut butter that I sweetened to add to the Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies. These are ridiculously addictive and would impress any nut or chocolate lover.

Pumpkin Pots de Creme
Gooey, creamy, rich, spicy and simply delicious, these pumpkin pots de creme are an easy dessert that can be made ahead for a crowd or even for a weekend indulgence. You could say, they are like digging into a divine pumpkin mousse. Funny, but its's spring in the southern hemisphere. There are a variety of fruits to choose from, yet inspired by pumpkin recipes all over my socials, I made not one but two pumpkin desserts on the same day. We don't get store bought pumpkin puree in Australia so when I made a huge batch of puree, I wanted to put it to good use. Besides, pumpkin pots de creme is made using egg yolks for the rich texture. The egg whites were perfect to make pumpkin financiers/friands. I'll share the recipe next. I decorated the pumpkin pots de creme by melting and coloring white chocolate into leaf molds for the autumn feels. Feel free to serve with candied pecans, grated dark chocolate or even crushed honeycomb. If you love pumpkin desserts, don't forget to check out this Pumpkin Creme Caramel and this Pumpkin Cake.

Pistachio Nankhatai Biscuits (Eggless)
If you haven't heard of Nankhatai biscuits before this, they are shortbread biscuits popular in India. The fact that they require only a few ingredients, are eggless and flavoured with spices and/or nuts makes them irrestible. The chickpea flour and semolina add to the bite and melt in your mouth texture of the Nankhatai biscuits but you are free to use plain flour instead. To keep them authentic, I've used ghee but unsalted butter is a great substitute. Giving in to the craziness of pistachio and pistachio based treats, I got my hands on some pistachio paste that I knew instantly I wanted to use in these biscuits. I used this one but i've heard that the same brand is cheaper at Costco. If you want to make your own, the Internet is flooded with recipes of pistachio paste. The unique taste of pistachios paired with a hint of rose and cardamom not only makes them perfect for those who celebrate Diwali but with the upcomng holidays, they would make lovely edible gifts or the most beautiful treats to share with friends and family.

Chocolate and Hazelnut Cookies
I started my cookie baking for the festive season early, this year. Almost every year I end up with a bunch of recipes that I worked on but are too late to post as it's almost January by the time I can get to it. These Chocolate and Hazelnut Cookies are simply amazing. Not only do they come together in minutes, they are egg free, require no chilling of the dough or any rolling out and so on. They are extremely addictive due to the nuttiness of the hazelnuts that are complemented by dark chocolate. I have used molds to create the design but if you don't have a mold, use could use a sillicone muffin pan or simply bake the biscuits and then dip them in chocolate. Or you could create thumbprint cookies by filling the centres with chocolate. The possibilities are endless with these Chocolate and Hazelnut Cookies. Chocolate and Hazelnut CookiesMakes 10-12 cookies 125 g (approx 1/2 cup +1 tbsp) unsalted butter, room temperature1/2 cup (60 g) icing/powdered sugar1/2 cup hazelnut meal3/4 cup (94 g) plain flour Preheat oven to 180 degrees C.
