    I was all torn between two options. The first is something I really like myself, but screwed up lat time I made. I think I know where the problem was, though. The other was to try to get one of my great-grandmas just so I could say "hey, this is my great grandma's recipe".

    Now I'm all intimidated and thinking I should stick to something simple.

    There was a package on my front porch.

    It was filled with deliciousness!

    Culdrasbit*h sent me the best peanut butter cookies I've ever had with some hershey kisses on top and chocolate-chip almond cookies that were even better.

    Thanks!

    I'm really glad you liked everything, I was worried that the kisses would fall off of the peanut butter cookies. In the interests of full disclosure, I made the peanut butter ones and my wife made the chocolate chip almond (she just had to one-up me, they are amazing). Are we sharing recipes in here too or is that for the cooking thread?

    Got to scarf down some really great italian cookies this weekend.

    With a bit of luck we'll be able to duplicate some of them for this exchange. Very possibly pignoli cookies.

    I did nothing to further my goal of completing my task. I do have the ingredients I need though now, so, I'll get to it sometime this weekend?

    Goddamnit I'm lazy.

    So even though we weren't part of the official list

    Blake and I exchanged cookies.

    I sent him peanut butter cup cookies and he sent me oat raisin cookies and chocolate chip and (I think) peanut cookies

    A great success!

    Maybe I'll do this next year.


    I've never really made a batch of cookies before, though. I do have experience with making one very large cookie, though.

    most cookies are pretty easy
    find a recipe and make a test batch
    adjust as necessary (if they burned, remove them sooner and so on)

    I think I'm going to try and convince my friends to come over and "help" me bake tonight.

    I overdid it at the gym and moving has lost all appeal.

  • vermiculturevermiculture Registered User regular
    my cake is baking RIGHT NOW. It just needs to sit for two days.
    also I'm glad I decided to do a test run on the cookies, turns out funfetti - not so fun in cookie form.
    I will be sending my baked goods early next week.

    Cookies have been baked and contained! I will be shipping them out via UPS tomorrow. They are basically chocolate held together by a mere formality of flour and butter.

    I hope my cookie person likes them! :D

    So glad you enjoy! I fit as many as I could into the penguin container. There is a little note on the inside of the lid.

    ah so there is! I never thought dark chocolate and wheat flour could be combined in such a sinful-tasting way

    thank you again!

    So I've baked, boxed and today they get shipped to my guy and three other lovely individuals.

    Just a note for those about to get cookies from me (not that you know who you are):

    There are cookies in there based on some family recipe from Chelsea's side of things. These particular cookies were being a slight bit finicky and may release their gooey goodness a touch too soon (we've all been there). My apologies if you end up with a messy ziplock (no relation) bag.

    Just grab a spoon and enjoy anyway.

    Baked goods are in the mail. Estimated time of arrival 8 days. Enough people joke about "hurr hurr are they special brownies" that I was hesitant to call them that on the mailing slip, in case the customs guy processing them is similarly retarded, so my recipient is getting "baked chocolate mint squares".

    I just came back from the post office. Baked goods are on their way.
    Mailing cookies across the country turns out to be rather expensive! I hope they make it in one piece and I hope my cookie xxxchange people can read my chicken skritch of handwriting.

  • DrZiplockDrZiplock Registered User regular
    One box of my cookies is apparently heading somewhere rather cold.

    Don't break a tooth biting on one, dude.

    The cookies are awesome! Can't wait to eat them all. I wish my handwriting was as good.

    The packing peanuts look delicious as well.
