While in quarantine, Hoggard senior Bella Cankurtaran has been posting yummy recipes to her food and health account @bella.bitess on Instagram. Her account features many different kinds of recipes ranging from smoothie bowls to pizza to cookies. Bella says one of her favorite recipes she has made while in quarantine are her homemade Lofthouse Cookies. She says they are “like the ones from our childhood”- maybe a little nostalgia is just what we need right now. If you want to have a go at making these delicious cookies, the recipe from her account is below!
To make the cookies:
Cream together ½ cup butter and 1 cup sugar
Fold in ½ cup plain greek yogurt
Add 2 eggs and ½ tsp vanilla
Add 3 cups flour, 1.5 tsp baking soda, ½ tsp baking powder, and a dash of salt
Chill dough for 30 minutes to an hour
Roll out dough on a floured surface and cut into circles
Bake for around 8 minutes
To make the frosting:
Mix together ½ cup butter, 2.5 cups powdered sugar, 3 tbsp almond milk, 1 tsp vanilla, and a dash of salt using a handheld mixer
Separate frosting into bowls and add food coloring of your choice
Frost and decorate
