Early Christmas Cheers - Green Tea Cookie Recipe, Easy Craft & Two Gift-aways
Here's my early 3-in-1 Christmas cheer to share in anticipation of the festive celebration which is just around the corner. A nice green tea/matcha cookie recipe, an easy-and-cheap-to-do Christmas gift tag and 2 Christmas prezzies as giveaways!
First up, is the cookie. If you often find yourself making the same types of Christmas cookies year after year, here's something different you might want to consider making. Green Tea With Red Bean & Pecan Cookies Ingredients: A: 160g butter; 10g vanilla essence; 100g icing sugar; 5g green tea powder; 3g green tea paste B: 1 egg C: 210g plain flour; 40g cornflour; 3g baking soda D: 180g toasted crushed pecan; 150g golden syrup; 10g vanilla essence; 100g cooked red beans (wash & boil in 4 cups water till the beans are soft, then strain and discard the water) E: Icing sugar for dusting - Cream A till light & fluffy - Add B and continue creaming till combined - Sift C and add to the above mixture. Mix thoroughly with a spatula till it becomes a dough. - Mix, stir well all ingredients in D together. - Take approximately 1.5 tablespoon of the cookie dough, shape into a ball with the palm of your hands and flatten it. Fill the center with 1 teaspoon of the red bean & pecan filling, then fold in the sides of the dough to close it up. Shape it round and flatten with your hands. - Place onto greased oven tray. Bake at 150-160 deg C for 30 minutes or till slightly golden brown.  Dust cookies with icing sugar just before serving (not illustrated here but you get the idea!)     Easy Craft - Christmas Gift Tags 1. You'll need: - A few pieces of printed felt - A few A4-size plain red and green thick cards - A scissors, a ruler, a pen & glue - Christmas-theme cookie cutters  2. Use a pen to trace the outline of the cookie cutter on the non-printed/flip side of the felt.  3. Cut the green & red plain cards into 6cm x 10.5cm rectangular and fold each piece in half. 4. Cut out the outlined shape, spread some glue on the non-printed/flip side and paste on the card.  5. Here you go...easy to make gift tags!!  Christmas Prezzies For The Lucky Two! In anticipation of the spirit of Christmas giving and sharing, and to thank you for your support to my blog, I have 6 mini cookbooks to giveaway to 2 lucky winners - whose names will be randomly picked. A small 'mystery gift' from me will be included too!! All you need to do is, leave a comment on this post and you're in for the random picking!

The 1st randomly picked name will receive the top row books, while the 2nd picked name will receive those at the bottom row. Last day to post your comment entry for this is 25 November.
