The Cookie Baking Post.

Posted by terri | Filed under tabemono, tetsukuri

It is almost December 25th, and I’m afraid to say that I haven’t done the things that I had hoped to do for the holidays. Hunny and I took pictures for our Christmas Card but never got to put a card together. I’ve also gotten very little shopping down, which will probably result in me getting some last minutes gift cards…and online.

I did manage to get some baking done, though the only thing Christmasy about it was that it was for a Christmas Party for my day job. I think that it is quite an achievement since I hadn’t baked anything for a couple of years. Our house had gotten a new oven about 4 years ago, but I never got to use it for baking until Saturday night when I decided to make Rice Krispie Chocolate Chip Cookies. It took about 3 hours to get about 7 batches of cookies baked and ready. Though I had made them before, I was worried that they would turn out disastrous. I was afraid to even taste them, but thankfully Hunny gave me the thumbs up from the first bite. As with anything else I do, I took pictures!

Peanut Butter Chips for the last batch!

Thankfully, they were a hit rather than a miss at the Christmas picnic the following day. It has not inspired me to bake more or to try to make new desserts but it has encouraged me for this coming Christmas Day when I have to make Christmas turkey at my house along with some if not most of the fixings.

Happy Holidays!

    Indeed a hit! Great texture (chewy with a touch of crunch). Peanut butter recess was a great idea. Good luck with the Turkey and fixings project. :)
