last week
Tuesday, December 08, 2015
So, Libby and I staged a little photo shoot for the Chalk Lots website. (A work in progress.) And it involved a V E R Y yummy cookie. Which was just perfect for the cookie of the week because we were out of butter. (Say it isn't so! I am rarely EVER out of butter. In fact, I always have an excess. I'll never forget the time I heard a friend of Libby's say to another friend, "OMG, Mrs. Friend has NINE sticks of butter!")
But, this particular day, it was true, I was out of butter. And it was like the cookie Gods intersected and showed me Katie's post highlighting her favorite cookie. With every one of her family members loving these cookies. And better yet, it involved vegetable oil instead of butter. I usually steer away from recipes like this. Or I use almond oil. Or sunflower oil. But this time I went for it and used the vegetable oil. And guess what? They are exactly what Katie said. A pillowy brownie that is rolled in powdered sugar. A chocolate lovers dream.

How fun for you both! And ooh! These cookies look so good. I can't believe how easy they are to make.
ReplyDeleteooh, those cookies look so amazing! A brownie pillow in icing sugar sounds like a perfect holiday cookie to me. :)
