But I don't wanna
Skipping some of biopsych to bring you my bakery post! Also, I had a dream last night that EDDIE IZZARD was in. I rarely meet awesome celebrities in my dreams :D or any kind of celebrity, really. Also, I used the name 'Domino' in-dream. IDK, it felt very adventurous.
Anyways, beyond the cut is photos and tales of a cooking adventure!
So I took this recipe for chocolate cookies, and replaced the white chocolate chips with peanut butter chips. There were several...hitches.
Basically, although I knew we had all the ingredients, I didn't check that we had ENOUGH of them.
The recipe calls for TWO WHOLE STICKS OF BUTTER. I didn't expect that. I only had one stick of unsalted left, so I used that and a stick of salted butter. Then I only had one cup of cocoa powder, so I was 1/4 a cup short. Finally, it turns out a whole fucking bag of Reese's peanut butter chips is less than 2 cups. A little bit less, but definitely less. That was not really a problem though since even then it was a fucking lot of peanut butter chips, I think I might actually put in LESS next time.
Anyways despite all of this they came out FANTASTIC. Also, the result was 26 HUGE cookies, and they were gone in less than 24 hours.
This photo I took just to show that they filled our cooling racks perfectly. I WAS IMPRESSED OKAY. That thing on the left is mom and dad's Weight Watcher Scale, for the curious. I, frankly, can't believe all the cookies lasted long enough for me to take this, since it took me FOREVER TO DO SO, since I had to charge dad's camera's battery. Also, yes, our counter really is that ugly, remodeling the kitchen soon though.
READY FOR EATING.
OM NOM NOM. Also, a cameo by my hand.
