This recipe is also a <a href="http://www.marthastewart.com/">Martha</a> rip-off, except a zillion times better! These are more crumbly and chunky then the thin 'n' chewy from the last post, I prefer this type of cookie. We took them up Arthurs Seat with a flask of coffee and it was amazing. The evening was clear and the sunset and views were outstanding. If you are in Edinburgh and the weather is good, I strongly recommed that you climb Arthurs seat, and while your at it, take these cookies!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYiQkGXnb2IE9E5OYjklYvWPfb9nF5JNvrnYA_Hlu7Sg1jCTVSJkFiWQTZlop9_oVBSjQOJavguMzTX3jTobVfyf5kvFshTL1TAO94sZ8A369Fkqa9gu9GVMF2pMRKcmhRJ3uzRrB6f60/s1600-h/MeNBum.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYiQkGXnb2IE9E5OYjklYvWPfb9nF5JNvrnYA_Hlu7Sg1jCTVSJkFiWQTZlop9_oVBSjQOJavguMzTX3jTobVfyf5kvFshTL1TAO94sZ8A369Fkqa9gu9GVMF2pMRKcmhRJ3uzRrB6f60/s400/MeNBum.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5135801944565074290" border="0" /></a><br />Makes about 20 cookies<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">O.M.G.

Our friend Bum was visiting for a couple of nights and I cooked up some <a href="http://www.marthastewart.com/">Martha Stewart</a> inspired Peanut Cookies for chewing on while we played turn-abouts on <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F-Zero_X">F-Zero-X </a>on Andy's computer. They are cookies of the big-flat-chewy kind, but I left mine in for 5 minutes too long as it is really hard to tell when they are done and were a bit too crunchin'. My advice is to take them out the oven just before you think they are ready, so the edges go crispier when they come out the oven and the middle stays chewy and yummy.<br /><br />Makes 12-15 mega cookies<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Peanut Cookies</span><br /><br />125g Vegan Marge<br />85g Peanut Butter (crunchy/smooth)<br />200g Sugar<br />1 eggs worth of egg substitute<br />1/2 tspn vanilla extract<br />125g plain flour<br />3/4 tspn baking soda<br /><span style="font-style: italic;">Optional</span><br />Roughly chopped chocolate and/or peanuts(both recommeded!)<br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">1/</span> Heat oven to 180.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">2/</span> Mix up all the wet ingredients until creamy and smooth.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">3/</span> Add dry ingredients until combined, then add nuts and choc if using.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">4/</span> Place spoonfuls onto baking parchment (on a tray), bearing in mind they will spread out quite alot.

I got a Swedish Glace one that tastes creamier than most dairy ice creams I have tried, so I am v. happy! It is expensive, but then again it is supposed to be a treat and not an everyday event (even if I want it everyday!). The hot chocolate sauce is a singe to make, and totally worth it!<br /><br />Serves 2<br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Chocco-nut Sundae:</span><br /><br />First, be a clever cloggs and take your ice cream out to soften.<br /><br />In a small microwave proof dish (I use a small glass tumbler) place around 6 cubes of chopped dark chocolate, 1 teaspoon of brown sugar, one heaped teaspoon of marge and around a teaspoons worth of golden syrup. Blast in micro for 10 seconds and stir, if the mixture is still lumpy give it another 5 seconds. If the mixture still has lumps and is hot, keep stirring and let the residual heat melt the chocolate. You defo don't want to burn the chocolate by blasting it for too long.<br /><br />Chop up a banana, then a small handful of salted roasted cashews/peanuts (salty crunchy works crazy good with the creamy sweet of the ice cream and banana). Scoop ice cream in bowls and chuck banana and nuts on top then drizzle with lots of the sauce.<br /><br />Well?
