Kind of fell in love with @the-giik's mantis bike character, Emmie. They're such a cutie!!

So I decided to render them in the medium I'm most comfortable in at the moment. Very excited to see if they decide to draw more of her.

Giik's Ginger Lime Cookie Recipe

I've been experimenting with this recipe for a little while and I think it's at a good spot to post publicly. I think ginger is really cool, but every baked thing that uses ginger is gingerbread, which makes it more about the spices added to it (cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, etc). This recipe focuses a lot more on the ginger itself, and combined with the lime it's a very nice and tropical sort of cookie.

Not sure what to call these. I've been thinking, like, "summer ginger", "moscow mule", or "actually ginger", but for now it's just "ginger lime".

Full recipe below the cut. I'd love to know if anyone makes this and what they think about it.

INGREDIENTS:

1/2 cup unsalted butter (softened)

3/4 cup granulated sugar

1 egg

1 Tbsp lime juice

1/2 tsp baking powder

1/4 tsp salt

4 tsp grated ginger root (skin incl.)

1/2 cup crystalized ginger (candied ginger should work too)

1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour

DIRECTIONS:

Before you grate the ginger, be sure to wash it. You're using the skin of it, after all.

In a large bowl, mix butter and sugar until smooth. Add the egg, then the lime juice and grated ginger root.

In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder and salt. Stir all that into the wet ingredients until a dough forms.

Chop the crystalized ginger into vaguely chocolate chip-sized pieces, sprinkle them into the dough (making sure they aren't too stuck together) and stir to combine.

Chill in the fridge for a couple hours, until the dough is cold all the way through. If you want to speed things up you can dig a hole in the middle of the dough to increase the surface area. (Or put it in the freezer if you really wanna risk it.)

Preheat oven to 350F (177C). Scoop the dough onto a baking sheet in golfball-sized lumps, a couple inches apart. They'll be kinda goopy.

Bake for 15-18 minutes, until the edges start to turn light golden brown. They'll still be very lightly colored on top.

Let them cool on the sheet for a few minutes, until firm enough to slide a spatula under. Then either move them to a wire rack to finish cooling, or just eat them immediately and burn your mouth a little.

The recipe doesn't make a TON of cookies, but you can easily double all of the ingredients and follow the same directions if you like it that much.

homemade pretzel buns¹ hold sausages and homemade kraut, and mashed potatoes made with a generous number of purple potatoes so that's why they look like that. Extremely good! learned a lot!

second pic is Giik's² Moscow mule cookies, also very good!

¹: over salted and a little too tough of a skin on them, not sure what makes the skin more or less tough maybe less boiling? will research

Decided to draw my settlemoon character, Lu'ume!

I am really enjoying this game and I want to thank @the-giik-games for the game!

Please go check it out! It's really cute and fun and you get to design a cool settlement for adventures who are all little pixelated creatures!

If you do play and want to see Lu'ume visit, you can use this code!
