The first recipe book I pull out of the bookshelf when I need to make something sweet is Donna Hay Modern Classics 2. The can usually find something I need, they are never overly difficult and when you follow the instructions (something I am not too good at) they work and taste delicious.
I think this is my favourite Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe.
Chocolate Chip Cookies
125g butter
vanilla extract
1 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
2 cups plain flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 cup dessicated coconut
200g dark choc chips
Beat the butter, vanilla and sugar. Mix in the egg then the flour, baking powder, coconut and chocolate.
Roll into little balls and put on a baking tray. Bake for about 10 minutes.
Simplicity 3775 #3 - This time in grey. I cut the the band in half and did not do the ruching and just added some length to make up for sortening the band. I really should have tried it on while I was making it and made a few more adjustments, but it fits and is extremely comfortable.

That dress looks super comfortable and stylish ( a hard combo to get!)
I seem to be jumping from one chocolate-themed blog post to another tonight.....which is driving me bonkers as there is not a shred of chocolate in the house!
Extremely comfy and cute! Nigella eat your heart out ;)
That dress looks fantastic on you. I wish I had the courage to try to sew with knits - one day!
Wonderful dress! Perfect for Spring and goes great with those boots!
Love the dress, and the alterations look great. Thanks for the recipe - need to bring biscuits to a morning tea tomorrow.
that is my favourite cook book as well! The apricot cake is just lovely! I love your dress, would love to find the pattern.. might have to be organised enough to note down the pattern number! Have a wonderful day!
Gotta love Donna Hay, my daughter buys her Kids Issue of the magazine every year. Those Choc chip cookies look so delicious, is there any left?
Gorgeous dress - you look fab!!
