Soba Noodles n Potstickers

Simple yet delicious.

ps: It's great having frozen pork dumplings on hand, makes for super easy back up dinner when I don't feel like cooking or just don't have time on my hand.

Pork belly n Eggs & Christmas Cookies

For dinner, we had pork belly and scrambled eggs. The dip is made with mayo and chipotle smoked hot sauce (super yum).

For dessert, we had some cookies, which were made exactly as the nestle tollhouse recipe instructed with the minor minor change of slightly decreased chocolate chips. I thought the cookies weren't that great (I prefer my cookies bready), but it's prolly just me as my fiance and my dad thinks it tasted normal and delicious.

Crumbly peanut butter cookies

Yup, these cookies sure do crumble easily. Maybe best to use as peanut butter crumble on top of some other delicious bakery. This is also keto friendly.
The above dough is made with 1 egg, 1 cup peanut natural butter, 1/4 cup splenda, 1/2 tsp vanilla extract, and 1 tbs coconut flour. Mix til well incorporated.

Scoop out a mountain high tablespoon and then flatten with fork. Bake in preheated oven of 350 F for about 12 minutes. Cookies will crumble! (Will try this again with 2 eggs to see if the cookies hold better)

They look pretty good. And it tastes pretty sweet too. Think I'll cut down on the splenda next time as well.
