This blog post is a blast from the past....permission to immediately scroll to the amazing cookie recipe below ;)
Whilst my pregnancy cravings have calmed down a bit these last few weeks (thank god!), if you were to ask what they've been like, I could sum them up in two words; Citrus & Sweet.
In the early stages I couldn't get enough of citrus fruit, any kind would do, but ruby grapefruit was probably the front runner. When it came to having something sweet, again I wasn't overly fussy but muffins & cookies tended to be my go to option.
These Chewy Chocolate, Orange & Coconut cookies have more often than not been my guilty pleasure. Who doesn't love a chewy gooey freshly baked cookie?!
Whilst there is nothing wrong with simple choc chip cookies, I couldn't resist adding a sprinkling of coconut and of course a touch of citrus. Expect a flavour bomb in your mouth, especially if you eat them straight from the oven.
To achieve a chewy consistency, I urge you to chill the cookie dough for at least 30 mins. However if you simply can't wait, you can still whack them in the oven as soon as you're dough is complete.
This is really a simple, no-nonsense recipe, great for getting the kids involved (especially for the dirty work using your hands!).
