Raspberry Cheesecake Cookie Swirls

Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 oz cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1/4 cup raspberry jam
1/4 cup fresh raspberries (optional for garnish)

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 175°C (350°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

In a large bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla extract, beating until well combined.

Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until a soft dough forms. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, prepare the cheesecake filling: Beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar until smooth and creamy.

On a lightly floured surface, roll out the chilled dough into a rectangle about 1/4-inch thick. Spread an even layer of the cream cheese mixture on top, then swirl or drizzle raspberry jam over it.

Gently roll the dough into a log, wrap in plastic, and freeze for 10–15 minutes to firm it up.

Slice into 1/2-inch rounds and place on the prepared baking sheet.

Bake for 12–14 minutes, or until edges are lightly golden. Let cookies cool on a wire rack.

Garnish with fresh raspberries if desired, and serve once cooled.

Sausage, Rich Gravy, and Biscuit Pie

Ingredients:
1 lb sausage
2 cups milk
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt

Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F).

In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage until browned and fully cooked, breaking it up into crumbles.

Sprinkle the flour evenly over the cooked sausage. Stir continuously for about 1–2 minutes to eliminate the raw flour taste.

Gradually pour in the milk, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Continue stirring until the gravy thickens to a creamy consistency. Season with salt.

Remove from heat and let the sausage gravy cool slightly while you prepare your biscuit dough or pastry crust (store-bought dough can be used for convenience).

Press one layer of dough into a greased 9-inch pie dish. Fill with the warm sausage gravy.

Cover with the second layer of dough, crimping the edges to seal. Cut small slits on top for steam to escape.

Bake for 25–30 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and flaky.

Let cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
