Dark chocolate and salted peanut cookies
Cookies make the perfect little treat on a picnic: no need for extra plates or cutlery and everyone loves a cookie. These ones are especially rich and decadent, and are sturdy enough to be left on a plate in the heat. In fact, they are actually better when slightly warmed by the sun. If you're not a fan of peanuts, you can replace them with almonds and almond butter - the cookies will still be delicious, though not quite as rich.
A decent blanket, plenty of napkins, good libations and, most of all, a bountiful selection of delicious homemade things make for the best picnic. Planning to eat outdoors can be a fool's errand with the uncertain weather in this country, so make sure that all the elements you can control are as good as they can be. And if you do get the sunny day you were praying for, won't you be glad you have a good spread to celebrate it with? These picnic-ready recipes are from Sarit Packer and Itamar Srulovich, co-founders of the Honey & Co restaurants and delis in London, known for their delicious, Middle Eastern-inspired food.
