But two years ago, we had our first family cookie baking time. And it was fun. At least for a while. Then last year, I'm not sure what happened (perhaps LIFE?), but we didn't have our "fun."
This year, we're stretching it out for a full weekend. Really, it's for our sanity, more than anything else. So that way, if we get snippy and/or tired and/or bored, we can take a break, and get back to it later. You know, instead of leaving some partially done cookies in the freezer for TWO YEARS. *ahem*
So, here's what's on our agenda this weekend.
Chocolate Chip Cookies (so far, I'm planning on these, but if anyone has any tried/true recipes for this, I'm all ears!).
Sugar cut-out cookies (totally gonna cheat on these... already bought the store-made dough)
Salted Caramel Thumbprint Cookies
Homemade Oreos
Cake poppers
Chocolate peppermint bark cookies
Pretty ambitious, huh? I'll document our successes
Wish us luck!

This is the best choc. chip recipe EVER:
1 c. butter
1 c. brown sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
2 1/2 c. oats (I use quick oats)
1 tsp. baking soda
1 12oz. pkg choc. chips (I use semi sweet mini-morsels)
1 c. sugar
2 eggs
2 c. flour
1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. baking powder
1 1/2 c.chopped nuts (which I know you won't do)
Cream together butter, sugar and brown sugar. Add eggs and vanilla. In a separate bowl, mix flour, oats, salt, baking soda and powder. Add creamed mixture. Add choc. chips and nuts. Place dough shaped in balls on ungreased cookie sheet 2 inches apart. Bake at 375 degrees for 8 minutes or until golden brown. Makes 5 - 6 dozen.
