Susamlı Gevrek Toplar (Sesame balls cookies)

If "plan A" didn't work... don't worry, there are still 25 more letters in alphabet  (^,^)

Selam Everybody...Merhaba from Turkey....

Talking about alphabet... in Turkçe (Turkish language) we have 29 letters seven of which are (Ç, Ğ, I, İ, Ö, Ş, and Ü) but letters W, Q and X (replace by V, K and KS) do not occur in Turkish alphabet.

So Turkish has more than 26 other plans if "plan A" failed (^,^)
It was just an intermezzo from me.... the point is we should not give up on things we want to reach because - like other proverb says - many ways to go to Rome... right?

Well.... those are nothing to do with my recipe I'm going to share today because making this crunchy sesame balls you don't have to make plan A or B or C .... this snack is simple as it looks yet best companion for your tea or coffee time.

It's simple and quick to make so this is absolutely your choice when you have an unexpected guest come by.

This recipe I took from iyiyemeginsirri.blogcu.com with minor adjustments.

Selam Everyone..... Merhaba from turkey..

Been crazy about macarons these lately months since I've been (proudly) succeed to bake them few times with many variations. You can check my macarons recipes on "Macarons" category.

And today post I make Tiramisu Macarons using "How to cook that" basic macarons recipe. That link I give you is making macarons with caramel filling, but since I want to fill it with cream cheese (as husband request as well) so I modified a bit to be Tiramisu Macarons.

Compare to my basic macarons before, this recipe has sweeter taste....so if you have sweet tooth maybe this is for you ^,^ And also this is easy recipe and I think fail proof.

No "waiting time before baking" require for this recipe, so pre heat your oven right after you prepared all things and start working with your mixer. Once you finish piping them, put them right away into oven.... bang! you'll get beautiful rising feed you are looking for for perfect macarons.

....Merhaba from Turkey....

Have an energetic early week! ^,^ 
How I remember when I was working a few years ago..... sometimes I hate Monday. Usually I should planned and arranged something at weekend before what could made me so exciting when I start my day at Monday...for example I watched cinema after work at Monday so I booked ticket earlier on Saturday or Sunday. And We usually had 50% discount for cinema at Monday! Or I made outside lunch appointment with my friend. My Office actually provided us lunch in canteen... so eating lunch outside sometimes can refresh me and made me more energetic doing my work for the rest of that day....

Well..... that was me back then years ago. And now, with wonderful and lovely little family I have... busy at home and provide my family with good food and happiness is my biggest obsession ^,^
Every time I tried some new recipe I would ask my husband what did he think about that food.... And he always teases me with his face and expression just like masterchef jury judge the foods... (^,^)

Now let's talk about our weekend dessert.... Pumpkin! Yes... as I mentioned on an earlier post... we are still in fall and pumpkin season.... A few days ago I made my pumpkin cheesecake bars no-bake, and it was gone in a flash.
And yesterday I made this yummy pumpkin pie... My kid loves it, husband likes it and this is becoming my favorite too ^,^ Try it..maybe it'll become fave on your family too...
