This is part four of making cookie flavours inspired by C4 characters until my stand mixer quits on me or until I start pastry school in the fall.

The Beam comes within! As promised, we have Tyranny-inspired Lofthouse cookies today.

If you have never had a Lofthouse cookie before, they are like the ones you can buy in multi-packs at grocery stores. This cookie is a light and fluffy sugar cookie base with a pink glitter icing, and I think you can tell just from the appearance who these ones are designed for.

The real demonic thing about these is how good they taste. I ate three of them in half an hour.

In my mind we have gone so far past the point of thinking about why characters act a certain way in universe and instead need to start questioning why characters have been written they way they were.

May the Beam reach you all! If you cannot already tell, today's cookie is inspired by Wicander Halovar.

I was going to make Tyranny inspired Lofthouse cookies this week, but then my four kg of smoked sea salt finally arrived! (I'll get to Tyranny next week, don't worry).

Wic's cookie is a raspberry white chocolate sugar cookie to match the colours of the creed. The blue colour comes from the inclusion of blueberry water, so while the cookie is not blueberry flavoured, I tried to get it as close to the teal of the creed as possible.

The raspberry itself is a nod to Tyranny, and because raspberry white chocolate is such an iconic combo.

The smoked sea salt adds an extra dimension of depth to this cookie, making it much more complicated than it looks at a glance (much like Wic himself).

Perfect for one forestry ranger, Kattigan Vale, today we have a recipe passed down from my Grandma that we used to make every time we went hiking.

Called a "health food cookie," this cookie is full of nuts and seeds and is perfect for regaining energy after hanging out outside for many hours. For some added sweetness, I have gone with the addition of apricots, which are safe for any dogs or wolves in your life.

The thing that really puts this cookie over the top is the addition of local maple syrup from a forest not that far away from where I live. (If anyone ever tells you it is okay to use table syrup in a recipe that calls for maple they are lying btw)

A slightly undead-looking cookie itself, this blueberry tiramisu cookie is inspired by my favourite undead necromancer, Occtis Tachonis.

As Alex stated in a fireside chat way back in October, tiramisu was Occtis' favourite dessert, so this cookie is a sugar cookie base with added blueberries for the undead look, chocolate chips, crushed ladyfingers, and ricotta cheese.

Despite its slightly questionable appearance, this cookie was a good way to get the flavours of tiramisu without having to actually make one. That being said, I would not try to make the ricotta from scratch like I did unless you actually know how to make cheese.
