Kaori’s Easy Recipe: Learn to Make Disney Tsum Tsum Chocolate Covered Cookies
With just a small bit of ingenuity, turn everyday food into something cute using Kaori’s easy recipe! With a few simple ideas, an ordinary recipe magically transforms into a cute dish.
In this recipe, we’ll learn how to make a recipe from the book Disney Tsum Tsum Sweets Recipes pictured above.
As well as the characters pictured on the front cover, others include Winnie the Pooh, Donald Duck and Daisy Duck. We’ll make the ears from marble chocolate than our usual chocolate plastic. The middle is like a sandwiched cookie, so you get a deliciously crunchy texture♡
1. Ingredients
Silicone cupcake case (my cupcake sections are 6cm)
White chocolate
Matcha chocolate
Marble chocolate
Chocolate plastic (also called “modelling chocolate”)
Chocolate pen
Oreo cookies
Pink, yellow, blue and green food colouring
2. Melt the chocolates separately over a bain marie and pour them into separate sections of the cupcake case, about halfway in each.
3. Place Oreo cookies into each like so.
4. Cover the cookies with the remaining chocolate and chill in the refrigerator until set.
5. Once fully set, the final step is to decorate with our chocolate plastic, marble chocolate and chocolate pen.
Sully’s purple ears are made with chocolate plastic.
Pooh’s ears are made from marble chocolate.
To see how I fully decorated my cookies check out the video I made below!
Lining them up like Disney Tsum Tsum toys makes them look really cute! All of the recipes I used this time are from the Japanese recipe book Disney Tsum Tsum Sweets Recipes (Japanese Title: ディズニーツムツムのスイーツレシピ). It shows how to create lots of different characters!

Kaori’s Easy Recipe: Learn to Make Mickey & Minnie Mouse Cookie Cupcakes
With just a small bit of ingenuity, turn everyday food into something cute using Kaori’s easy recipe! With a few simple ideas, an ordinary recipe magically transforms into a cute dish.
For this edition of Kaori’s Easy Recipe, I used a recipe from the Disney dessert cookbook Oishii Disney Sweets Recipes to make “Mickey & Minnie Cookie Cupcakes” which make for the perfect Valentine’s Day treat. It’s a super easy recipe to follow – I even made the cookies and ribbon using ingredients readily available at the supermarket. So don’t hesitate, give this easy recipe a go for yourself.
1: Ingredients (Makes 6 cupcakes measured 7cm)
2 medium eggs (40g egg yolk/60g egg white)
60g granulated sugar
2tsp vegetable oil
1-2tsp lemon juice
45g weak flour
2:
①Put the egg yolk, vegetable oil, and lemon juice into a bowl and mix well.
②In a separate bowl, whisk the egg white and gradually add in the granulated sugar. When adding the sugar, I recommend doing it in four portions. So add one quarter of the sugar, mix, repeat.
③Once you’ve added all the sugar, mix well to incorporate into the egg white.
④Gradually add the weak flour. Do this in three portions like in step ②. Please be careful as to not mix too vigorously when adding the flour as it will result in the dough losing its loose texture and becoming firm.
3: Pour the mix into the cups so that 70-80% of the cups are full. Bake at 190℃ for 12 minutes, then bring the heat down to 170℃ and cook for a further 3 minutes.
4: Now it’s time to make Mickey Mouse. I used one big Oreo cookie and two little ones, the latter of which don’t have filling. Like in the photo below, half the bigger cookie, place the smaller ones inside, and place the bigger half back on. If you don’t have anything to stick the cookie back on, you can use the filling of the Oreo.
5: I used melted to chocolate to fix my Mickey Mouse together. If you add red M&M’s like I did in the photo below, Mickey transforms into Minnie.
6: Once the cupcakes are done baking, make an incision in the top to place the Mickey and Minnie cookies into.
7: Add some fresh cream to decorate, and your Valentine’s Day Disney cupcakes are complete!

Kaori’s Easy Recipe: Learn to Make My Melody Strawberry Purin
With just a small bit of ingenuity, turn everyday food into something cute using Kaori’s easy recipe! With a few simple ideas, an ordinary recipe magically transforms into a cute dish.
As strawberries are currently in season in Japan, today we’ll be looking at an easy recipe for delicious strawberry purin. All you have to do is mix the ingredients and you’re done! In previous recipes, we’ve looked at purin recipes that involve decorating the inside of the glass. Many people commented that this is quite difficult so today we’ve got a recipe that is easy enough for even kids.
Ingredients (For 2 Portions)
Two small jars (this recipe uses Weck jars)
200g Strawberries with stems and leaves removed (approximately one small pack)
20g Sugar
20ml Fresh Cream (or milk to substitute)
5g Gelatin (dissolved in a tablespoon of water)
½ Teaspoon Lemon Juice
To Decorate
Premade Chocolate Decorations or Chocolate Slices (as you like)
Strawberries to Decorate (as you like)
Fresh Cream (As you Like)
Chocolate Pen
2: After removing the leaves and stems from the strawberries, blend them in a mixer.
3: Heat the mixture in a microwave on 600w for 50 seconds. Afterwards, add the sugar, gelatin solution and lemon juice in that order. Finally, mix in the fresh cream.
4: Meanwhile, press the premade chocolate decorations or sliced chocolate (white) into the inside wall of your jar.
5: Use the chocolate pen to draw the face, strawberries and ribbons from the outside of the glass. If you make a mistake, wipe it off using kitchen paper and try again.
6:Put the jar into the fridge for the chocolate to harden. Once the chocolate does not sink when the jar is placed upright, slowly add your strawberry mixture into the jar and put it back in the fridge until hard. After your dessert solidifies, you can add the finishing touches of whipped cream and strawberries.
And you’re done!

Kaori’s Easy Recipe: Learn to Make Mickey Mouse Ice Box Cookies
With just a small bit of ingenuity, turn everyday food into something cute using Kaori’s easy recipe! With a few simple ideas, an ordinary recipe magically transforms into a cute dish.
For this edition of Kaori’s Easy Recipe, I used a recipe from the Disney dessert cookbook Oishii Disney Sweets Recipes to make cute Mickey Mouse-shaped ice box cookies. Ice box cookies are made by forming the dough into a cylindrical shape, leaving it to set in the fridge, and cutting into slices. This means you can make cookies even if you don’t have a specific cookie cutter, for example one in the shape of Mickey. You can create lots of different kinds of cookies using this method. They’re light, crunchy and best of all, delicious.
1. Ingredients (Makes: Approx. 30)
100g unsalted butter
80g powdered sugar
180g sieved weak flour
20g egg yolk (1 medium size egg)
A pinch of salt
10g pure cocoa
2. Bring the unsalted butter to room temperature until it’s soft. Break into small pieces until it turns creamy then add the powdered sugar and salt. Mix well until everything is blended together.
3. Add the egg yolk into the mixture and mix well with a whisk.
4. Slowly add the sieved flour. Add about a quarter at a time and mix well before adding the rest to avoid clumps. After all the flour is mixed in, divide in half and mix one of the halves with cocoa powder.
5. Shape both halves into a rectangular shape at 12cm x 6cm. Wrap in cling film and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
6. Divide each half like in the picture below.
7. Put ⅞ of the plain dough to one side, and roll the rest of the plain dough and all of the cocoa dough into 15cm rods.
8. Roll the ⅞ of plain dough you put to one side into a 17cm x 15cm square. Referencing the pictures above and below, place plain “C” dough in the middle between the cocoa “B” dough. Ensure there are no gaps when pushing them together.
9. Place the cocoa “A” dough on top of the “C” dough. Take both sides of your rolled out square dough and bring together ensuring there are no gaps. Wrap in cling film and leave in the fridge for 20 minutes.
10. Take out of the fridge and cut about 5mm off the ends. Make sure to handle with care – if handled too roughly the dough will collapse.
11. Slice into single cookies and bake at 160℃ for 20-25 minutes.
Your cookies are done!

Japanese company JO, which operates seven restaurants serving Japanese-style food in Japan, launched its new anko red bean paste dessert brand Ankoto on February 28. The brand’s first product to be released is the “Anko Cheesecake.” All products will be released via their online store.
The launch of Ankoto
Ankoto launched after seeing many people in Japan calling for their desire to eat the same kinds of high quality anko sweet red bean paste desserts that they can in restaurants at home. The brand aims to bring many different sweet treats to its menu in collaboration with various other brands and satisfy customers’ sweet-toothed needs.
Ankoto also hopes to create all-new desserts using anko, an ingredient loved by the Japanese for years.
High-quality anko used in all desserts
The bean paste is made by hand every day over a period of two hours by Ankoto’s bakers. They use specially-selected beans grown in Tokachi, Hokkaido. No bad stuff is put in Ankoto’s desserts, the naturally sweetness comes from the sugar beet used in the cooking process.
The First Release: Anko Cheesecake
Ankoto’s first dessert to be released is the Anko Cheesecake, a popular mix of sweet red bean paste and cheese. This dessert was perfected after much trial and error over the course of half a year where over 100 iterations were tested. It’s made using creamy, full-bodied Brie de Meaux, a cheese that’s been called the king of cheeses. This cheesecake is gluten-free, using absolutely no wheat, and has a fresh sweetness brought about by the sugar beet. It’s an addictive amalgamation of sweet and salty and contains no nasty additives.
