Brown Sugar Walnut Cookies
Overview
As the college entrance examination approaches, the child is under increasing pressure. She studies until 12 o'clock every night (I never allow her to go beyond this point), and gets up early to study again after 5 o'clock in the morning. I feel really distressed and always want to give her something to nourish her brain. I have never believed in those so-called brain supplements. TV commercials shout every day: Children use their brains and drink six more walnuts. Is it possible that there are really six walnuts in that can? Instead of believing them, why not actually make some walnut food yourself? I made this brown sugar walnut cookie for my daughter not long ago. Brown sugar is warm in nature, sweet in taste, and enters the spleen. It has the effects of benefiting qi and blood, strengthening the spleen and warming the stomach, relieving pain, activating blood circulation and removing blood stasis. Walnuts are rich in nutrients, rich in protein, fat, minerals and vitamins. Walnuts are rich in vitamins B and E, which can prevent cell aging, strengthen the brain, enhance memory and delay aging.
