Easy peanut butter and oat cookies

Happy New year to all my faithful friends.

Let this be a new year filled with joy and prosperity

Just last night I had some father-daughter time and so decided to get down and bake for my wife who is expecting our second child in the coming days. I must say my daughter has it in her to be in the kitchen; he is a brilliant assistant. She does all the food tasting ;)

Here is a recipe of a cookie I tried (and hopefully you'll like) with some items I found in my cupboard which had not git used up over the Xmas holidays

2 eggs

Bake in a hot oven (app 180-200C) for 6-8 minutes.

This profile pic is one that represents the latter. Together with my culinary experience and passion for creating we will make cooking a lot more pleasing and easier. So, which type of cook are you?
