even honey if that’syour thing use that and next I’m justgonna eyeball it cuz mommy knows how todo that one oh yeah that’s okay you’reafter three tablespoons that’s not muchand you’re probably like juice day sothat’s really not much sugar becauseI’ve got this hat so stick around andyou will love it because you can do thiswith other cookies as wellalright and we’re gonna pulse it yeahhoused together in a time all right guysyou can see here that it’s it’s nowstarting to come together pulse again isthat it will start to come together intochunks see that there if you price thisover too long you get a turn and startwhipping your butter and it’s gonna getreally soft but don’t worry don’t worrythis is the steaks recipe it is can Ihave your back all you have to do isjust chill it in the fridge for a littlebit longer I’m just gonna grab myself aspatula bring you guys back and show youhow I love getting it out on the benchso the other thing that’s really coolabout this as well is because there’s noeggs in it the sticks usually set pleasedon’t touch this it’s for a second sorryI want to pull you back so that you cansee everything you can give this a tasteand you can make sure your little staystands that it is good for youI don’t want you to be like well that’stoo sweet or it’s not sweet enough Iwant to show you this hack first for howI get sweetness into my cookies withoutgoing overboardum but see what you think you can alwaysadd a bit more we’ve got a beautifulpeople like that now some baking paper Iuse this baking paper it’s called if youcan’t bread I love it because there’s nocrap in it I especially love it thedewclaws is so thick rightnot God throws plastic on the outside ofit is natural it doesn’t have aluminum Ijust get mine at my local store you canbuy it online Australia you can get itfrom buyer me but a lot a lot of placeshave this brand now I get it just likeHarris farm here in Sydney and you justwant to whack it just like thisBoggs parchment paper how’s it taste andthen grab another one and you justleaving it thumbs up do you guys -five-second rules in your house – or isthat just absolutely disgustingwe do five second rule– something wedon’t have petsthat’s probably why so I’m just gonnasquish it down just a little bit okayand then you just want to give it a rollout the reason that I do thisdifferently and you’re probably lookingat this being like stasis isn’t how areyou usually say the shortbreads diedlike typically you would you would putyour dog just straight in the fridgelike that because I’m so often making itwith these mushrooms I find the if youfollowed pack of rolling it out andgetting it is so much more simple thatwhen it’s chilled a little bit and itonly needs about some of 10-15 minutesin the fridge then it will harden up andit makes it so much more simple to cutso that’s gonna go into the fridge fastforward ten fifteen minute I’ve got oneready to go sodo you do next pull off your parchmentpaper and then grab your little cutteryou want to make sure that these guysjust just for a sec okay and you’reafter just chopping it and then usingyour little total I use this for like anicing one and it’s just to get itunderneath now if you at any point findthis really tricky and you’re like ohit’s being so hard to to get them outsimply it’s just because it’s ashortbread it’s full of butter so for mehere in my kitchen right now like thisis quite cool weather but I I mean youknow it’s kind of top because it isactually quite warm so I would regularlybe putting it back in the fridge ifyou’ve got really strong arms you mayeven want to whack it in the freezerlet’s do this last one and we’ll showyou how we decorate it so you can dothis with any of these that you’ve gotI’ve just got a little um buddy cutterbut you do anything like it it seriouslydoesn’t matter you might just want toeven chop around them I often make theseshort breads you can make them howeveryou wantand the key to getting me to look atthings but if it’s like your kids too tolet me know if the comments I reallyhope not too many what you’ve got tomake sure is it see he I almost diedokay that’s probably enough that’senough he’s pushing them in a little bitbecause that’s how you get them so thatthey don’t burned and they don’t sort ofgo missing see that they’re just pushingat me okay no no no we’re done let’sknow what it’s enough okay perfect sowhat we would do now crazy ones youcould put them in plain they don’t needto have anything on the map yet but thisis just kind of fun right like do ityour way you could do it with chocolateso you can even do these with driedfruit they go into the oven for 180 forten minutes and then here’s that hackthat I’ve been promising you of how doyou get more of the flavor of sugar intoyour baking and your cookies withouthaving to put so much in this is kind ofthat I do to that if you’ve beenfollowing me for a while like I makepancakes and I don’t actually in therebut I’m all for putting some maple syrupover the top because that’s where youget a flavor right and it’s exactly thatwith these cookies so whack them in youroven 10 minutes bring them out and thenyou just have a little bit extra of yourmaple syrup and a pastry tool and whenyou’ve pulled them out of the 10 minutesvery very lightly just go over the topof them you’ll find that that will givethem this gorgeous absolutely amazing Imean look at that there’s a beautifulbeautiful crust on it and it will havesuch a strong maple syrup taste and he’susing so little of it for a whole batchI’ve used about a tablespoon is that soit’s an awesome way now let me give yousomeon how you can trust these I got somelittle guys out I mean look at thesetiny little bunnies aren’t they gorgeouswhat do you think would you make bigones or little ones I’m interested toknow let me know leave it in the commentbelow these ones are the bigger guys andthis is what they look like with theeyes in so they’re just for me these arecalled gems I buy them here in Australiafrom organic times they’re a dye freelike little chocolate bud so like an M&Mjust without the preservatives on top ofit I love using them and they bake somewell the crust like their crispness ofthem is delicious but let me show youhow you you’ll love this one how you canmake your own food coloring Oh like fooddied which we died you’re dyeing it withsome food icing so I do use icing sugarI think don’t use this hack and if youlike this idea make sure you to stickaround by hitting the subscribe buttonand giving this video online because I’malways sharing these kind of ideas youready for itjust grab your normal sugar and put itin the processor whatever it is and giveit a quick blend that is literally howyou make icing sugar so you could dothat if you’ve even got brown sugar andyou could do that if you have coconutsugarRavager ah stand it all brown or whitesugar you don’t have to go and buy icingsugar literally just do that and thenthis is the tool that I love to makecolors with so just grab a strainer andthese are some frozen berries that Ihave let Thor grab your strainer likethat and just push it through it if youwant them really chunky then absolutelyyou could add these in and mash themtogether but I don’t want mine overlychunky you can do this exact same thingand he’s seeing what I’ve got here I’vegot blueberriesI’ve got mango I’m interested Oh haveyou tried this before like have you donethis technique the thing I love aboutdoing it this way is that you also getyour flavor in cuz some often you knowyou put any food ties but you don’tactually get any flavor so I’ve got mystrawberry there and I’ve got my icingsugar just like that now you’ll need tomeasure it like you’ll need to get a bitbetter any quantities that was probablylike this is too runny so all I need todo I’ll just grab something from theother color that I was gonna use andjust add some you you’re after getting apaste that works this is gonna beperfect that works for you notice thatI’m using as well the back of the spoonit’s really kind of because whenever I’mgiving it a push in it simply just meansI’m getting rid of all the big bits ofsugar now that’s still a little bitrunny but I tell you my kids would thinkthat that is amazing as it sits on youras it sits on your cookie it’s kind ofharder it will let’s give this one justa little bit more so you can see so Ireckon roughly you’re probably aimingfor half a cupyou’re probably aiming for like half acup of icing sugar to maybe a tablespoonor a teaspoon of that puree you’re gonnataste you’re gonna love that oh my godit’s so good oh you can absolutelycuz that’s the flavor right cuz I’velike condensed it so much it’s so goodI’m actually just gonna add a touch moreof this I reckoned that would take me upto that full what I was just talkingabout the quantity man you can addvanilla into this you can add in anessential oil as well but when you makethe icing this way you’ve got thenatural flavors of your fruit and howcould you do this well you could putthat straight into a piping bag but forme yeah oh well and I will definitelyget the kids back in to do this one theyare gonna love this hey boys come checkthis out look at the eyes things that Ijust made give it a tastedump your finger in be completely on PChow’s that taste just once just thefinger it works is it good I won’tbelabor because you didn’t see what Iput in there what fruit does it tastelike raspberry that’s rightlook at that I think gorgeous I need tolet it dry cuz it’s gonna dip drip itisn’t that fantasticso you could do this with the mangoeswith the blueberries as welland just let them know no let themHarden for a little bitonce they hard you ready to go you canabsolutely still put sprinkles on top ofthese as well these are such a greatgift and such a fun thing to make withthe kids this Easter but you could bedoing this I’m positive that this pecanmaple is gonna become a favorite ofyours you could be doing this with anykind of time of the year like thatbeautiful color at Christmas would beabsolutely amazing with some Christmastrees you could also you know
