That’s how many oatmeal peanut butter chocolate chip cookies I made this evening. Minus the 3 that were used for quality control testing (read: I ate them). Of course, it didn’t occur to document my cookie making until I was well into the baking.
I found the recipe for these cookies here. I didn’t use vanilla because I didn’t have any and I used both dark and light brown sugar. I generally don’t put vanilla in my cookies and honestly, can’t tell the difference. I think mixing my brown sugars created the perfect balance of sweet.
However, these cookies are just the right balance of semi-sweet chocolate, peanut butter and oatmeal.
And no, I didn’t make these just because. I’m the only person in my house that will eat these cookies and I sure didn’t make myself 6 and a half dozen cookies to pig out on. Nope, these are for the Thanksgiving luncheon at work tomorrow. I hope I made enough.
Can I commission some cookies??? They look YUMMMMMMMY
PS I forwarded my H1N1 idea to all of my Mom friends. They LOVED it, too. My friends who are not Moms think its mean. They can suck it.
