A Comic relief recipe : Red Nose, Cookie Pizza Pie. #RaiseSomeDough

It’s not long now until the official Red Nose day starts – Friday 13th March, but before that, there are so many ways to raise some money for Comic Relief. I know lots of my fellow bloggers are getting involved in the Danceathon at Wembley, unfortunately my dancing feet are not up to that much toe tapping, so I won’t be able to join them.  I will of course be joining in with the Comic Relief fundraising, and one thing I will be doing, is cooking up a storm and baking something funny for money in my brand new Henry Holland designed HomeSense apron!

Don’t I look proud! The Apron is now available to purchase at HomeSense for £12.99 along with tea towels designed by Henry Holland with a famous Orson Wells quote.

Do you want to join me? Well here is my recipe, perfect for a bake sale :

 

Red Nose Cookie Pizza Pie : A Comic Relief Recipe by ME!

• 1/2 cup – 4oz salted butter,melted
• 1 large egg
• 3/4 cup – 5.75 oz light brown sugar
• 1/4 cup  – 1.75 oz granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
• 1 & 1/3 cups – 5.3 oz of plain flour
• Several Reece’s Cups
• Red M&Ms for the noses, I added brown ones too.

1. Preheat oven to 170.
2. Mix well the sugar, vanilla extract and egg together. Then add the melted butter to this mixture.
3. Add the plain flour and mix lightly.
4. It should be a thick mix
5. I forgot to grease my flan dish, and it did stick slightly. I would recommend greasing, and parchment paper on the bottom if you have it.
6. Press the mixture into a 9 inch flan tin.
7. Smooth surface, and arrange the Reece peanut butter cups and red M&Ms.  Make sure they are pressed into the mixture though.
8. Cookie can not be put in the oven.  Keep your eye on it, but it should take around 25-30 mins to bake.
9. Leave to cool, before slicing like a pizza.  It should be still gooey in the middle, but once cooled the texture is amazing, crisp and biscuity on the outside, fudgy and soft on the inside.  So gooood!
10. I would recommend it cools completely before you eat it, with a lovely large cup of tea!
