I'm trying a very easy beer bread recipe.
So easy, it is in fact called Very Easy Beer Bread.
Flour, sugar, beer!
Except....
Since buying the beer - the only ingredient I didn't have - I've discovered a Beer and Cheese Bread recipe. It looks bloody yummy, but I would need milk powder (when would I ever use that again?) and probably some more cheese, so as not to annoy Dad by using up all of his. Have yet to decide whether to go to Londis (local shop) and buy these, or practice on the simple one first...
Recipe
4 tsp sugar
2 tsp dried yeast
450ml/16fl oz brown ale, at room temperature
520g/1lb 2˝oz strong white bread flour, plus extra for dusting
320g/11oz wholemeal flour
200g/7oz cheddar cheese, grated
75g/2˝oz parmesan cheese, grated
50g/2oz powdered milk
1˝tsp salt
1˝tsp mustard powder
2 free-range eggs, beaten
2 tsp fennel seeds
1 free-range egg, white only, for glazing
Looks really rich & moist, doesn't it?
Hmmmmm.
Will report back later.
ETA I am rubbish with cookies.
Well, not rubbish (although I had a completely spoiled batch when I tried to make them for Limey) but not worth asking the question of.
I love your previous alphabet cookie idea. If'n I can get a cheap set of letter-cutters I'd love to make some for the staffroom.
Or hey, maybe a big Cookie Cake (people buy them from Millie's Cookies here and they disappear within one 15 minute Playtime!)
