Who says it has to be summer to make delicious citrusy treats?

How about some lemon cookies? Mmm? Unfortunately I didn't have any nuts. But I did add a generous helping of the fresh lemon/orange juice (there is no equivalent to fresh).

And I added some oats. I swear you can add those to almost anything and it tastes splendid.

I was also craving some chocolate really bad so I made my own magic shell creation to dip the cookies in after they had baked.

With some

1. coconut oil

2. confectioner's sugar

3. a small amount of butter and

4. of course some cocoa powder.

No measurements required, just whatever looks good to you- and then melt in a pan.

It hardened quite nicely and tasted a little bit like heaven on earth.

Wintertime is exquisite, but sometimes we all need a little reminder that summer is always around the corner.

To create, to savor, to remember.
