The Taylor Swift chai cookies are a perfect blend of sweet and spice and are a must try celebrity recipe.

We’ve all seen Gigi Hadid’s mouthwatering vodka sauce pasta or Taylor Swift’s comforting chai cookies spread through various social media platforms. Lately, celebrity recipes have taken these apps by storm and appeal to teenagers who want to explore cooking and get a taste of celebrity life. This list provides a ranking from best to worst of some celebrity recipes by taste and how easy they are to prepare for teenagers new to the kitchen.

Taylor Swift’s chai cookies
Taking first place,Taylor Swift’s chai cookies are easy and fun to make and leave your house with a vanilla aroma. Ingredients for the cookies such as flour, butter and sugar are readily available and can most likely be found in your kitchen. Laying out all the ingredients in small bowls, as you may see on your favorite cooking show, is a good way to stay organized while baking these cookies. Additionally, remember to read the instructions carefully as it is easy to mix up teaspoons and tablespoons that will alter the recipe and taste such as adding too much vanilla extract. With a delightful combination of warm spices and sweet flavors, the taste of the cookies is wonderful. To finish it off, the icing on top with a cinnamon and nutmeg flavor is also simple to make and completes the recipe. These cookies are soft and chewy and make a perfect “midnight” snack.

Gigi Hadid’s vodka pasta
This pasta sauce is extremely creamy, decadent and indulgent. The cooked-down vodka adds a unique kick to the sauce. The rest of the sauce is made with tomatoes, garlic and milk, all of which you may already have at home. With the onions and the garlic cooking, your kitchen will start to smell like an Italian feast! The sauce is easy to make, just be careful as you are cooking over a hot stove. Also, adding a hint of basil adds a touch of brightness and freshness to the dish, elevating the sauce altogether. Lastly, when tossed with your favorite pasta, it creates a creamy and savory combination full of richness and flavor.

The Rock’s protein-packed pancakes
What better way to wake up than the smell of fresh pancakes? These pancakes are thick, fluffy, delicious and provide a protein boost. They are also very beginner-friendly, as they don’t require any fancy techniques. The Rock put his own personal spin on traditional protein pancakes by adding banana slices and shredded coconut from his home state of Hawaii. The recipe calls for shredded coconut, coconut oil, coconut milk and coconut water, so these pancakes aren’t as healthy as you think, with all the coconut adding extra calories and saturated fat.. However, for those looking for a tropical take on a breakfast staple, these pancakes will satisfy your cravings.

Jennifer Aniston salad
This fresh, bright and crunchy quinoa salad was Aniston’s go-to meal on the set of Friends. This recipe is sure to make your taste buds dance as the earthy and nutty flavor of the quinoa contrasts well with the crunchy cucumbers and red onions. One downside is the number of ingredients that go into this recipe which may require more effort to assemble the salad. For example, the parsley takes a while to chop and dry, has a subtle taste and is not exactly necessary in this recipe besides adding nice color. Overall, it is a refreshing appetizer for a healthy start to your meal and takes about 20-25 minutes to whip up.

In conclusion, any of these celebrity recipes are worth a try. From Gigi Hadid’s vodka pasta to other famous dishes, these recipes inspire us to try new flavors, experiment in the kitchen, and offer a delicious glimpse into the lives of our favorite celebrities.
