Thermometer in that case is your friend!

I need to invest in a good thermapen. I've used a variety of thermometers, but they vary so widely in temp. I usually just poke it til feels done.

My 14 yo daughter made this cake for Mother's Day.

Impatiently waiting on dinner...

Slower is always better.

Yep. Took about 1.5 hours total to cook. About 10 seconds to eat.

ok, chocolate chip cookies as promised. Had to go buy myself a mixer. I goofed and added the eggs and vanilla to the sugar+butter before I had whipped the latter. So didn't get enough air beat into them. Should have added a little more flour because of the extra 1/2 of an egg. And the beaters were the 'wire' kind not the far more effective bladed type.

I also didn't chill the batter before baking this first batch so these ran a little more than they should have. I'll do better on Tomorrow's Snicker-Doodles.

If you people coming to the Manassas Wash n' Wax are nice to me, I'll let you have some.

You're cookies will not be acceptable until you produce these exact cookies

Now that...that's a cookie.

indeed. that one is nice and short, too I bet. (Plus you HAVE to say that or you don't get any, right Mik?)

Trick of perspective, they are actually huge cookies. I only have to beg for Jello. The cookies just happen like magic.

The cookies are probably 3.5-4 inches in diameter. They are "breakfast" cookies. Also, what does a nice and short cookie look like I am so confused.

edit: also, Mik never HAS to say anything. My cookies are just boss- I mean they do have brewer's yeast in them

I have apologized about the Jello. Cookies from scratch are just easier to make.

short cookie

'shortness' describes the texture.

I don't believe they are short. I edited my previous comment to include one of the ingredients as brewers yeast and they definitely don't have a butter cookie crumble. Then again, I have no idea what the terms in baking actually mean.

I admit the pizza isn't home made however, cold beer makes this acceptable.

NOW they look as they should!!

Kneeded by hand 35g of flour (I had improperly deviated on the eggs by 30g) into the chilled half-batch and added some chopped walnuts. 50g balls slightly flattened. Next time I'll use the standard chips, not these itty-bitty ones. That's what I get for buying them on a wing from Target at 9pm.

 

[Blithe16]

Walnuts? Gross.

People like walnuts sweet heart. Horrible, horrible, camaro loving people.

I like big butts and I cannot lie!

I kept the last batch of rub in the Jack bottle, and the Don Julio, well I just really like tequila.

8 hours at 275 degress, just about fell apart coming off the smoker.
