Popular Post Parsnip Totin Jack ★ Posted April 5, 2022 Popular Post Share #1 Posted April 5, 2022 I’m baking cookies after work. Toll house cookies are the best kind. I measured all the ingredients this morning so making them should be a snap. I make a double batch because Wo7 doesn’t eat chocolate and I have to make some without the chips. I know it’s grounds for divorce, she keeps giving me reasons but I stick around anyway. To save on calories I’m taking some to work tomorrow. 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirby Posted April 5, 2022 Share #16 Posted April 5, 2022 I was once in a series of business meetings where they'd bring in cookies every day at mid-afternoon. There were a variety of flavors, but it soon became clear that if you didn't get there early, you'd only get the less desirable flavors. The first to go were "chocolate chips" made with white chocolate and cranberries. Laggards got stuck with some sort of coconut cookie. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parsnip Totin Jack ★ Posted April 6, 2022 Author Share #32 Posted April 6, 2022 Update: cookies didn’t turn out well. They taste great but they spread too much while baking, they melted rather than set up like they used to. The lower oven is convection and I may need to adjust baking to 350 vs 375 to account for that. The upper oven had the rack on the lowest level vs middle for bread. I will bake in the center from now on. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
