You guys know how much I love my Andy and how the one goal in life is to make him happy, right? Well, I know how much he loves chocolate chip cookies so I put on my apron and channeled the dutiful housewife within.
Don't ask me what the hell happened because if I knew what I was doing, they would have obviously come out perfectly and not looking like a science experiment gone wrong. A YUMMY science experiment.
I called Andy over and after he laughed at me for being unable to follow simple instructions ("" simple "" according to him but to me? When they ["they" being the evil instruction dictators] tell me "room temperature butter" and it's 75 degrees in the house it's not really my fault the butter gets goopy!), he said they tasted like heaven. Well, he didn't actually say the word "heaven" but that's what I heard.
At least I didn't burn or melt anything (that didn't mean to be melted).
well thats where you went wrong you tried to make home made every good 'fake' baker knows you always buy premade dough then pass it off as your own...
ReplyDeleteThe sentiment was great no matter how they turned out!
ReplyDeleteAlthough, I agree with Georgie, I always buy the premade dough. I even "baked" it over the stove top once, when my oven wasn't working. What??!! I was desperate, I really wanted some cookies, they tasted oven baked though!
Perfectly-shaped cookies are so yesterday.
ReplyDeleteIt also depends on what sort of butter you use...was it butter or margarine?
ReplyDeleteBaking is a science.
But if it makes you feel better...plenty of my cookies turn out looking like that. :-)
I live close to a biscuit (cookie) factory, so I don't even bother to 'fake bake'. The factory shop is so cheap.
ReplyDeleteNow when they are gone Andy can tell you he only had "one." They/it look delicious!
ReplyDeleteawww
ReplyDeleteconjoined cookies
they look so cute
As a culinary cookie maker (that I call myself) it seems that you may have too much butter or may have melted it? My secret *very confidential* I dont use butter, I use butter crisco...they come out PERFECT everytime! :)

ReplyDeleteCould have been worse Bee..
ReplyDeleteI mean, my mother-in-law once nearly burned down her kitchen with the premade cookie stuff because she forgot to take it out of the wrapper!
At least you tried making it from scratch.. I'm really and truly impressed!
They, or rather it, looks pretty good. If you're going to eat them all anyway there's no point in having seperate ones.
ReplyDeleteThis looks delicious. I would simply have to treat it as one giant cookie and eat the whole thing at once.
ReplyDeleteI know that recipe! I have pulled those cookies out of my oven many times. I now cut mine into squares and call them Blonde Brownies. It's the thought that counts!
ReplyDeletethose cookies STILL look awesome even if they are all squished together!
