(In response to Brad’s comment – “Not dead!” I had to open the center this morning, so there was no time to post.)
On occasion I make chocolate chip cookies. I’m not really a cookie person, so this is the only kind I ever make. I memorized the recipe in college, and once during a geography test I had no idea what the answer was to one of the questions, so I wrote down the recipe. (My professor was not amused. Hmmph.)Â
It’s the basic Nestle recipe with a few changes – Criso instead of butter, twice as much vanilla, and a little less flour. The other important step is to chill (freezing is even better!) the dough. Last night we had company coming over – Kristi and Jerome Leckband and their sweet daughter Joanna – and I needed something snacky to have around. Time was short, so I thought I’d use nature’s freezer.
(Don’t worry, Annette. I covered the bowl after I took the picture. Nobody wants squirrel fur in their cookies.)
