Ingredients

• Cake

• 2 cup 2 whole grain flour

• 3/4 cup 3/4 brown sugar

• 1/2 cup 1/2 coconut sugar

• 2 tsp 2 baking soda

• 1 tsp 1 cinnamon

• 1 cup 1 oil

• 3 3 eggs

• 3/4 cup 3/4 pineapple chunks blended

• 1 cup 1 walnuts

• 1/2 cup 1/2 desiccated coconut

• 1/2 cup 1/2 raisins

• 1 cup 1 carrots grounded

• Frosting

• 1 stick 1 butter unsalted

• 1 1/2 cup 1 1/2 granulated sugar 300g

• 2 cup 2 cream cheese 500g

• 3 tsp 3 vanilla extract

Directions

• Cake
• Preheat your oven to 180°C and lightly grease two 9-inch-diameter cake pans. Line bottom of pans with waxed paper.
• In a large mixing bowl beat the eggs and the oil together and then add the blended pineapple. Stir in the flour, sugars, baking soda and cinnamon until just combined. Carefully add the walnuts, carrots, desiccated coconut and raisins and don’t overmix it!

  • 

• Pour batter into prepared pans, dividing equally. Bake until toothpick inserted into center comes out clean and cakes begin to pull away from sides of pans, about 50 minutes. Cool in pans on racks 15 minutes. Turn out cakes onto racks and cool completely.
• Vanilla Frosting
• In a standing mixer beat the butter and the sugar for 5 minutes. It needs to look very light! Then add the vanilla extract, beat shortly. Be careful when adding the cream cheese, you should only beat it for a short time like a minute until everything is well combined. Don’t overmix it because then its too runny.
• Place the first cake layer on platter. Spread with  frosting. Top with the second cake layer. Using icing spatula, spread remaining frosting in decorative swirls over sides and top of cake. I would recommend to let it chill in the fridge before serving. 
• Cake can be made two days ahead! Serve cake cold or at room temperature.

A delicious and easy recipe for moist and fluffy carrot cake cupcakes with lemon cream cheese frosting.

The Carrot Cake is made of whole grain flour, brown sugar, coconut sugar, walnuts, raisins and yes carrots, but there is this secret ingredient which makes the cake extra special! Blended pineapple chunks! It makes it extra moist and delicious!

These carrot cake cupcakes are a modified version of my favorite Carrot Cake and are perfect for Easter as Easter Cupcakes with homemade bunny ears!

How to make the bunny marshmallow ears for Easter Cupcakes

• 6 Marshmallows for 12 Cupcakes
• 1 tsp dried raspberry powder
• 60 g sugar
• 1 tsp water

Whisk granulated sugar and dried raspberry powder in a small bowl. Add water and thoroughly stir until sugar is evenly coated.

This step you can omit if you only want to use the sugar for the bunny ears
Preheat the oven to 90°C. Spread the raspberry sugar mixture onto an prepared pan into an even layer. Place in the oven and turn off the heat. Let the sugar dry for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours. If being used right away, the sugar doesn’t have to be completely dry, but must be stored. If there are clumps, use a rolling pin to crush into fine pieces.

Cut marshmallows in half diagonally. Immediately dip the sticky, cut side into the raspberry sugar. Position the marshmallows on the cupcakes to look like bunny ears.

I hope you enjoyed this recipe for easy Carrot Cake recipes! It’s soo delicious and perfect for sharing!

This is the perfect recipe for strawberry-rhubarb galette. It’s tangy, sweet, delicious and suuuuuper easy to make! Made with my all-time favorite pastry recipe!

Finding rhubarb in the supermarket is a rare occurrence, even though we can plant and harvest it here in Austria, but only the fortunate with a large enough garden. Like Ninas garden, but hers is still green. I was not able to plant it so I needed to look for it in the supermarket or farmers market. At the farmers market it was always sold out, when I was looking for it.

When I finally get my hands on these beautiful pinkish-red stalks I get all of them and buy every last piece. Rhubarb is just one of my favorite thinks to bake with in the spring.

Nina always calls me the queen of galettes, since I would make it with every fruit there is. Most of the galette recipes here on our blog are mine.

How to make this marvelous strawberry rhubarb galette:

First start with the dough since it need some resting time in the fridge. In a large bowl combine flour and sugars. Add cold butter cubes, rub in with your fingers until the mixture looks like fine crumbs. Add the egg and combine everything to a dough. Place in plastic wrap and let it cool in the fridge for about 30 minutes. Now you have some time to yourself before continuing the galette.

When the dough is ready roll it out on a lightly floured surface (or directly on the parchment paper) to about 1/4 inch thickness. Transfer to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. My advise is to directly roll the dough out on the parchment paper! It makes everything easier!

For the filling, combine the rhubarb, strawberries, brown sugar, cornstarch and vanille bean paste.Spread the filling evenly onto dough, leaving a 3 inch border around the edges. Fold edges over, overlapping slightly. Brush dough with egg wash and sprinkle with brown sugar.

Bake at 180°C for 40-50 minutes! Let it cool slightly and serve it the best way possible with some ice cream!

This is an easy way to make vegetarian cauliflower bolognese! You will not miss the meat, promise! It’s delicious and good for you!

Italian cuisine and pasta is the way to my heart! Whats better than a good bowl of hot steaming spaghetti with one of my favorite sauces. Even my boyfriend likes my cauliflower bolognese. The first time I made him these, he haven’t even noticed that there was no meat, and he loves meat dearly!

My vegetarian cauliflower Bolognese is loaded with veggies, making it a perfectly healthy dinner! To replace the meat, I used a mixture of mushrooms, cauliflower, fresh rosemary and Italian spices.

Benefits of Cauliflower

Have you tried cauliflower in bolognese sauce yet? This under-rated vegetable has so much to offer!

There are a lot of benefits of eating cauliflower. Cauliflower is loaded with nutrients. 100g of raw cauliflower provides 75% of the daily minimum of Vitamin C. It’s also needed for DNA repair and the production of both collagen and serotonin. Serotonin promotes happiness and healthy sleep. Cauliflower also has a lot of vitamin K which is required for bone formation. It also has smaller amounts of other important nutritions like vitamin B, phosphorus, magnesium and potassium.

There is eve a research that suggests that compounds in cauliflower could help keep cancer from developing in the first place. Cauliflower is part of the crucifer family, like Brussel sprouts and broccoli. Eating cruciferous vegetables has been linked to lower risk of heart deceases and cancer.

Since cauliflower is extremely versatile, it’s a great low carb alternative to grains and legumes. I love to use cauliflower instead of rice or in a pizza crust for example.

A few notes you look after when making this vegetarian cauliflower bolognese

I would recommend using a high speed blender, to get the mushrooms and cauliflower as little as possible. If the cauliflower pieces are too big they could taste like horseradish (my opinion) while eating it.

If the pasta sauce is too dry after adding the pasta, parmesan cheese and the pasta cooking liquid, I would recommend adding some more pasta water until you has a sauce like consistency.

This no-bake white chocolate berry tart is a marvelous summer dessert! Perfect to make for special occasions yet it’s very easy and fast to make! The base is made of graham crackers (I’ve used Leibniz Butterkekse) and topped with a deliciously smooth white chocolate cream cheese filling and with blueberries and raspberries.

Why no-bake?
It’s summer, it’s hot outside and you definitely do not want to turn on the oven and produce unwanted heat! Such a blessing, if you live in a house without air-conditioning.

How to make this marvelous no-bake white chocolate tart

First we start with making the crust:

Pulse graham crackers (I’ve used Leibnitz Butterkekse) and brown sugar until finely ground. Add the melted butter and mix thoroughly until combined. Press the mixture onto the bottom and the sides of a 28cm loose bottom tart pan. Place in the fridge and chill for 30 minutes until firm

Then we make the delicious and smooth cheesecake filling:

Carefully melt the white chocolate and set aside. With a stand mixer whip cream and vanilla to soft peaks. In a separate bowl combine cream cheese, white chocolate and maple syrup. Then add the whipped cream carfeully. Fold about half of the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture and then fold the remaining whipped cream in until smooth. Be careful to not overwork it. Spoon the cream cheese filling onto the cooled biscuit base and add the raspberries and blueberries. Chill for a few hours before serving. You can also add the berries just before serving.

Alternate versions of this no-bake white chocolate berry tart

There are so many delicious variations of toppings for this white chocolate tart, following are my favorites:

• Caramelized Bananas and caramel
• Balsamic roasted strawberry and rhubarb
• Honey roasted peaches with sage

This is an Easy Delicious Italian Asparagus quiche Recipe with a twist. It’s a delicious green asparagus recipe and a perfect breakfast recipe, brunch recipe or lunch recipe. Everyone will love this delicious quiche dish.

Spring is finally here, which means my favorite season is finally here cause of the fresh asparagus and the strawberries! Asparagus is one of my favorite veggies and you can use it in so many different dishes! Like my Italian asparagus quiche!

What is a quiche?

A quiche is a savory French tart consisting of a flaky pie crust or pastry crust and filled with a savory creamy custard (heavy cream, milk and seasoning) and filling ingredients.

It’s a delicious classic recipe with a flaky crust that is so versatile in hindsight to the quiche fillings as you can add pretty much anything you can think of to the basic ingredients. From simple muchrooms and peppers to more creative ingredients like chopped spinach and caramelized onions, there’s so much you can do with quiche.

Quiches are typically served at brunch or breakfast. There are so many different variations of quiche and new flavor combinations are being created every day! Make sure to give my Italian asparagus quiche recipe a try.

The origin of quiche.

When people think of the French word quiche they assume that the traditional quiche origins from the Lorraine region of France.

But food historians know that historical records indicate that quiche actually originated in Germany in the middle ages in the medieval kingdom of Lothringen, which the French later occupied and renamed Lorraine. The word ‘quiche’ is from the German word ‘Kuchen’, meaning cake.

Can I make a crustless quiche too?

Sure you can, a crustless quiches resembles more a fritatta or an egg omelet since the pie crust is missing. Though the taste of a quiche is more richer and less eggy but its a great gluten-free alternative.

Just omit the crust and spray a pie from with cooking spray and add the egg mixture and the filling and bake at 175°C (350°F) for 35 minutes or until the center is set.

Can I use a store-bought crust for the quiche?

Generally If time is short using a store-bought crust is great thing. It decreases the time you need for a good quiche immensely . You can use a store-bought pie crust, short crust or even a a store bought puff pastry sheet.

But be aware it doesn’t compare to a pie dough made from scratch. Making your own crust will always taste b better than one bought from the supermarket.

How to make this easy delicious Italian asparagus Quiche recipe.

We start with making the quiche crust!

•  Pulse flour, salt and butter in a food processor until everything resembles coarse meal with only a few bigger pieces of butter.
• Add milk and pulse until dough holds slightly together.
• On a floured surface, roll the dough with the help of a rolling pin into a thin circle.
• Transfer the dough to a tart pan or pie pan.
• Allow dough to hang slightly over the pan, about 3 cm.
• Fold the excess dough under. Pinch and crimp. Chill for 30 minutes.

Now in the meantime we make the filling!

• Over medium heat with 2 tbsp of olive oil bake the prosciutto until crispy. Let it dry on some paper towels. Then crush it into smaller pieces.
• Over medium heat, soften the onions with 2 tbsp of olive oil. Add the asparagus, mushrooms and sauté . Add the vegetable broth and reduce until nearly evaporated. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly. Season with salt and pepper to your liking.
• Combine the eggs with the milk. Add all of the cheese but safe 20g. Spread the saved grated cheese directly onto the dough.
• Then add half of the prosciutto chips. 
• Then layer the asparagus, mushroom mixture on top except the tips (you will need them in the later). 
• Pour the savory custard filling into the prepared pie shell.
• And finally arrange the asparagus tips and the remaining prosciutto chips on top.
• Bake for 50 minutes or until the egg filling is set.
• Cool for a 10 minutes to let it set before cutting.
• Can be eaten cold, warm or right out of the oven.

Can you make a quiche ahead of time or freeze it?

• Of course you can. This easy Italian asparagus quiche is ideal to make it ahead of time and keep it for up to 3 days in your fridge or freeze it up to 3 months .
• Just let it cool on your kitchen counter for up to 2 hours.
• If refrigerating simply wrap top with foil.
• If freezing first wrap in foil and than put it in an airtight container.
• Thaw frozen quiche for one day when ready to serve.
• To reheat: first cover the top in foil and than bake at 160°C (325°F) until it heated through.

Variations:

There are so many ways to make a quiche. Maybe you want to try our “Best Easy Roasted Pumpkin Leek Quiche Recipe Ever”? Or try one of these variations.

• Spinach Quiche : fresh spinach, nutmeg, gruyere cheese (If you dint get your hands on fresh spinach use frozen spinach.
• Quiche Lorraine : cook 100g Bacon until crisp, drain the crisp bacon then chop. Add a pinch of nutmeg and optionally tender cooked leek.
• Mushroom quiche: Saute 100g sliced Mushrooms and 50g green onions in butter until tender and the mushrooms are shrunken and golden brown. Optionally add a twig of fresh rosemary while cooking.

Every year at the same time I have an obsession, which starts with me seeing the first pumpkin posts on IG and finally being the very first customer buying pumpkins at the supermarket. As you may already have guessed I have a huge love for pumpkins. ALL The PUMPKINS. During these months my main food ingredient is, if I am doing the cooking, pumpkins! Roasted with salad, spaghetti, steak or baked as a roasted pumpkin leek quiche! Every day all day I could eat all the savory and sweet pumpkin recipes! Thats why we have soo many pumpkin recipes!

This is an easy and fancy looking way to use pumpkin!

What is a quiche?

A quiche is a savory French tart consisting of a flaky pie crust or pastry crust and filled with a savory creamy custard (heavy cream, milk and seasoning) and filling ingredients.

It’s a delicious classic recipe with a flaky crust that is so versatile in hindsight to the quiche fillings as you can add pretty much anything you can think of to the basic ingredients. From simple muchrooms and peppers to more creative ingredients like chopped spinach and caramelized onions, there’s so much you can do with quiche.

Quiches are typically served at brunch or breakfast. There are so many different variations of quiche and new flavor combinations are being created every day!

The origin of quiche.

When people think of the French word quiche they assume that the traditional quiche origins from the Lorraine region of France.

But food historians know that historical records indicate that quiche actually originated in Germany in the middle ages in the medieval kingdom of Lothringen, which the French later occupied and renamed Lorraine. The word ‘quiche’ is from the German word ‘Kuchen’, meaning cake.

How to make this delicious roasted pumpkin quiche? Easy! Just follow the steps!

We start with making the quiche crust!

•  Pulse flour, salt and butter in a food processor until everything resembles coarse meal with only a few bigger pieces of butter.
• Add milk and pulse until dough holds slightly together.
• On a floured surface, roll the dough with the help of a rolling pin into a thin circle.
• Transfer the dough to a tart pan or pie pan.
• Allow dough to hang slightly over the pan, about 3 cm.
• Fold the excess dough under. Pinch and crimp. Chill for 30 minutes.

Now in the meantime we make the filling!

• Roast the sliced Hokkaido pumpkin (tossed beforehand with some olive oil and sprinkled with some salt, nutmeg and cinnamon) in a preheated oven 180°C.
• Heat 2 tbsp olive oil and cook leek until soft and set aside.
• In a medium bowl whisk together eggs, cream and milk.
• Stir in the slightly cooled leek and add the cheddar cheese and mozzarella cheese.
• Pour the savory custard filling into the prepared pie shell.
• Top with roasted hokkaido pumpkin slices and the finely shredded parmesan cheese. Bake for 35-45 minutes or until the egg filling is set.
• Cool for a 10 minutes to let it set before cutting.
• Can be eaten cold, warm or right out of the oven.

Can I make a crustless quiche too?

Sure you can, a crustless quiches resembles more a fritatta or an egg omelet since the pie crust is missing. Though the taste of a quiche is more richer and less eggy but its a great gluten-free alternative.

Just omit the crust and spray a pie from with cooking spray and add the egg mixture and the filling and bake at 175°C (350°F) for 35 minutes or until the center is set.

Can I use a store-bought crust for the quiche?

Generally If time is short using a store-bought crust is great thing. It decreases the time you need for a good quiche immensely . You can use a store-bought pie crust, short crust or even a a store bought puff pastry sheet.

But be aware it doesn’t compare to a pie dough made from scratch. Making your own crust will always taste b better than one bought from the supermarket.

Can you make a quiche ahead of time or freeze it?

• Of course you can. A quiche is the ideal dish to make it ahead of time and keep it for up to 3 days in your fridge or freeze it up to 3 months .
• Just let it cool on your kitchen counter for up to 2 hours.
• If refrigerating simply wrap top with foil.
• If freezing first wrap in foil and than put it in an airtight container.
• Thaw frozen quiche for one day when ready to serve.
• To reheat: first cover the top in foil and than bake at 160°C (325°F) until it heated through.

Variations:

There are so many ways to make a quiche. Maybe you want tol try our Italian Asparagus quiche with crispy prosciutto chips. Or try one of these variations.

• Spinach Quiche : fresh spinach, nutmeg, gruyere cheese (If you dint get your hands on fresh spinach use frozen spinach.
• Quiche Lorraine : cook 100g Bacon until crisp, drain the crisp bacon then chop. Add a pinch of nutmeg and optionally tender cooked leek.
• Mushroom quiche: Saute 100g sliced Mushrooms and 50g green onions in butter until tender and the mushrooms are shrunken and golden brown. Optionally add a twig of fresh rosemary while cooking.

Enjoy!

The story behind my pumpkin cupcakes

Autumn and Halloween are my favorite seasons right behind Christmas, but I think I already told you that and what kind of fruit is in season during fall? It’s pumpkin! And Styria the part in Austria where I am living is famous for it’s pumpkins and pumpkin seed oil! So basically pumpkin and pumpkin seed oil is running in our veins like maple syrup is in the blood of Canadians 😉 Thats why I needed to make a pumpkin cupcake with vanilla cream cheese frosting. We’ve even put some pumpkin seed oil on top of the finished cupcake, right before serving and they were very delicious.

I have been making cupcakes since the young age of 15 with my sister Nina. We’ve been experimenting a lot (yeah nothing changed we still have small catastrophes happening in our kitchen cause of our experiments once in a while) and we’ve made a lot of cupcakes over the years. These pumpkin cupcakes are perfectly moist with the perfect amount of spices and combined with my favorite vanilla frosting a truly dream come true. Like biting into pure bliss!

How to make these delicious Pumpkin Cupcakes:

We start with the pumpkin cake made with real pumpkin puree and pumpkin spice. I always prepare a lot of pumpkin purée which I than try to use up and try to incorporate it in as many recipes as possiple! I always use Hokkaido Pumpkin, slice it and roast it in the oven at 180°C for 20-30 min until soft. Then I puree it in my high speed mixer. Voila now you’re ready to make these delicious Pumpkin Cupcakes!

Ingredients for the pumpkin cake

• Whole Grain Flour
• Baking Powder
• Homemade Pumpkin Spice
• salt
• Pumpkin purée
• Coconut oil, melted
• Brown sugar –> adds a caramel quality
• Granulated sugar –> adds sweetness
• Egg
• Pure Vanilla extract

1.Step
Preheat the oven to 180°C and prepare a muffin pan with 6 cupcake liner

2.Step:
In a large bowl mix together the whole grain flour, baking powder, pumpkin spice and salt.

3.Step
In a smaller bowl combine the pumpkin purée, coconut oil, brown sugar, granulated sugar, egg and vanilla. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.

4.Step
Using an ice cream scoop or spoons, divide the batter evenly onto the 6 cupcake liner. Bake for 20 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean at 180°C. Let it cool completely before frosting

Now to my favorite frosting in the world – Vanilla Cream Cheese Frosting!

This is my all-time favorite frosting and always the basis for other flavors of frosting! You know this is not just a plain-old recipe for vanilla frosting, this one is one of a kind! My secret recipe for frosting cakes and cupcakes. Psst don’t tell anyone! You know the secret ingredient is the caster sugar. Every Cream cheese frosting recipe in the world wide web calls for powdered sugar but I make mine with caster sugar. I don’t like my frosting extremely overly sweet which happens when you use powdered sugar, because when using powdered sugar you need a lot of it.

This recipe is for a small patch of cupcakes, but making frosting for only 6 is very difficult, just FYI and you will need a standing mixer like a Kitchenaid or something similar because the butter and the sugar need to be beat for at least 5 minutes.

The 4 holy ingredients:

• Butter
• Caster Sugar
• Vanilla extract high in quality
• Cream Cheese

Like I already said, first you need to beat the butter and the sugar until pale and fluffy for at least 5 minutes, always scraping down the sides during. Then add the vanilla and beat again. This is the most IMPORTANT step add the cream cheese and carefully beat only until it’s just combined. Do not over beat it!!

Pipe the frosting on top of the little cakes and then dip the edges into the pumpkin seeds.

How to make little marzipan pumpkins

These little pumpkins are the perfect decoration for halloween too!

You will need:

• Green Fondant (I used this one)
• Orange Marzipan-Fondant (I used this one)
• Brown Fondant (I used this one)

or you could color your marzipan yourself – this is the perfect step by step directions if you’re coloring it by yourself

Lets begin with the orange pumpkin:

Cut the orange marzipan into 3 parts lenghtwise. You will need two parts. Now you divide the 2 parts into thirds and shape little balls. With a toothpick make intends where the stems and the green ranks will be placed afterwards. Press creases along outer edges from top to bottom for pumpkin ribs.

Next to the stems:

You will only a little bit of the fondant. Cut little pieces from the brown fondant and shape into small robes

Last but not least the pumpkin tendrils:

Just repeat the step how to shape the stems. You will only need a little bit of the fondant. Cut little pieces from the green fondant and shape into small tendrils.

Attach the stems and the green tendrils on the top of the pumpkin, pressing with a toothpick to adhere.

Believe me you need to make these cupcakes ASAP. They are like I already said perfectly moist, perfectly spiced and with the best vanilla cream cheese frosting 😉 This recipe is only for a small batch of cupcakes but you just need to increase the ingredients and you will be perfectly fine if you like to have more than 6 cupcakes-

Summer has arrived, everybody is using their grill for cooking everyday, like Nina. She wants to use her new grill until it gets cold outside, bet she is even using it when it starts to snow, that’s how much she is in love with it ;). Nina, her kids and me we love S’mores! They are normally prepared over a camp-fire. Normally..

What is a s’mores?

A s’more is a traditional nighttime campfire treat popular in the United States and Canada, consisting of a marshmallow and a layer of chocolate placed between two pieces of graham cracker or cookie.

Source: Wikipedia

Doesn’t it sound already delicious and mouthwatering? It is soooo good and we love to make it at home in our garden! Its such a delicious summer dessert .

Since I can’t make a camp-fire on my balcony in the middle of Graz (our hometown) I am always making these grilled s’mores while grilling. You only need 3 ingredients: graham crackers, chocolate, marshmallows and a cast iron pan!

How to make this easy s’mores on the grill recipe.

3 steps!

1. Line your cast-iron pan with the graham crackers, layer the chocolate on top of the crackers and lastly add the marshmallows.If you want it extra chocolatey put som chocolate between the marshmallows as well. Isn’t it simple? You can do nothing wrong;)

2. Important step – only one side of you grill should be turned to high heat. Place the cast-iron pan on the other side with no heat. This is important it keeps the heat low on the bottom (you don’t want to burn the bottom) and higher on top to get the marshmallows nicely golden brown.

3. Close your grill and let it cook for 15 to 25 minutes. It depends on your grill. I would recomend to take a look every 10 minutes. They are ready if the marshmallows turned golden and the chocolate is melted. Be careful, extremely hot! Enjoy!

Believe me this is highly addictive! Perfect for sharing, but you don’t need too!

This is perfect for when you are already grilling and want to make dessert on the grill too. It is so easy we have just fired up the grill just for s’mores. Everyone loves these and it takes just minutes to make. It’s an amazing BBQ recipe.

We would love to hear from you. Write us a comment if you enjoyed this recipe or tag us @twosisterslivinglife on Instagram or Facebook.

Cool drinks recipe recommendations for your Summer BBQ .

Here are my drink recommendations for a perfect BBQ party . Because good food should always be accompanied by cold delicious drinks :

Alternatives to traditional s’mores.

• Strawberry shortcake s’mores: Substitute graham crackers for shortbread cookies and add fresh sliced strawberries.
• Sweet and Salty S’mores: Pretzel thins add a bit of salty goodness to the sweet treat. Another alternative is to use Ritz crackers instead of graham crackers.
• Raspberry jam and Peanut Butter: Add raspberry jam on top of the crackers and peanut butter cups
• white chocolate or dark chocolate with shredded coconut on top
• Banana, dark chocolate and caramel cookies
