Today we’re making** quinoa and orange cookies**—let’s get a taste of vegan desserts. Personally, I’ve never had the pleasure of eating many of them, but I hear so much about them—why not give them a try? As they say: you have to try everything in life, especially my recipe for quinoa cookies! Quinoa, for those who don’t know, is gluten-free (but be careful—these cookies are not if you use 00 flour!) and has many health benefits; in fact, it’s very high in protein , carbohydrates, and dietary fiber. If you’d like to learn more, I recommend this link (LINK). The following ingredients are for about 20 cookies using my disc-shaped cookie cutter!

With these apple-heart cookies, we’ve reached the end of this first month of 2017—it flew by for me; how about you? Today is one of the “Three Days of the Blackbird,” so why not bake some cookies and stay nice and warm with the oven on at home? :D For those who don’t know, these are the coldest days of the year! Brrrr! Cuor di Mela cookies are very sweet shortbread cookies that are perfect for breakfast and snacks. They’re very famous because they’re sold by Mulino Bianco, but above all because they’re DELICIOUS! I’d like to share my recipe with you, in case you want to try making them at home and/or can’t find them at the supermarket. The ingredients are enough for about 40 cookies!
