Recipe insights & TIPS

These cookies are part of the crazy cooking challenge hosted by Tina from Moms Crazy Cooking. Last month it was mac n' cheese and I think we ended up with a blog hop of sixty different kinds of mac n' cheese, It was quite the sight. This month we had to findthe ultimatechocolate cookie which couldn't be that difficult, I mean who doesn't like cookies? I ended up borrowing a recipe from Dinners Dishes and Desserts, a fantastic blog written by Erin. The cookieslook plain and simple but wait I haven't mentioned the taste yet! They remind me of an electric scooter which putts along at 10 miles per hour until you hit the taste button and BAM!, the scootermorphs into a fuel thirsty, enginerevvin', rubber burnin' Nascar doing 200 miles per hour on your tongue!I apologise for the long winded last sentence but I want to make sure that when you see these little sweet cookies don't be fooled into thinking you have to always have a cookie with nuts and fruit andchunks and chipsand ketchup in it, maybe not ketchup but has anyone tried that? Bake these cookies, you will eat all of them.
