COOKING: Yogurt Sugar cookies / Cake

Hey Guys!!!
How r u all doing?? I have an AMAZING recipe for u all today! And I JUST made these and they taste SOOOO GOOD!!! (I made it more like cake so I'll give the measures to that also)

Ingredients:

1/2 cup of Sugar
5 tbsp unsalted butter (100g for cake)
1 Large egg
2 tbsp yogurt
1/2 tbsp vanilla extract (Optional and I did not put this in)
1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
11/4 baking powder (optional and I did not put this in)
1/4 tsp salt
Cocoa powder or 1/2 cup melted chocolate.

Steps:

1. Preheat oven to 400F/200C
2.In a mixing bowl, beat sugar and softened butter until well mixed. This is the butter mixture.
3. Add egg and yogurt in the butter mixture. This is the wet mixture.
4. In a different bowl combine flower, backing powder and salt. This is the dry mixture.
5. Gradually add the wet mix into the dry one and beat it.

COOKIES: 

1. Roll the dough to a 1/8 inch thick sheet. 
2. Using a floured cookie cutter, cut into the desired shape.
Tip: Place the cookies about 1/2 inch apart in the baking tray.
3. Bake the cookies for 8 minutes or until very light brown.
4. Place them to cool and then decorate.

CAKE:

Note: As. in the cake we use more butter than the cookies.it will be wetter, so don't worry.

1.Take a cake mold, grease it well and pour all the mixture in.
2. In the preheated oven, bake for 8 minutes until very light brown.
3. Remove the cake, cool it and decorate.

Hair Chalking

Hey Guys!!!
In this post I will be teaching you all how to chalk your hair!

What is hair chalking?
Chalking is a way to add temporary color to your hair by using CHALK! Yes chalk.

Is it safe?
I re-searched a lot on this and asked a lot of people and yes it is totally safe!As talc in used in many other products we put on our skin, this method is safe.

Materials:
1. Soft Pastels
2. Gloves (optional)
3. Old T-shirt or any Dark shirt
4. Hair styling tools 

Method:

1. USE SOFT PASTELS.
Blonds: Rub the chalk directly to your hair. 
Brunettes: Dampen you hair first, roll it a little and rub the chalk in one direction.

WARNING: Your cloths and hands will get really messy so wear old cloths or anything you don't mind getting dirty. Wear gloves if you don't want your hands dirty.

2. Let the colour set (if your hair is damp let it dry).

3. Blow dry, curl or use a flat iron to lock the colour in.

So that's all u have to do! Its really easy to do and gives a pop of color in your hair!
