they sound like such great cookies! packed full of stuff
almost like a ben & jerry’s type of cookie in the cookie world.
Help, I want to make these but the egg/eggs were left out. Is it 1 or 2? Thanks!
Mmmm cookies! Awesome!
Those cookies look good! I hope someone tells her that she shouldn’t worry about their flatness. Some cookies are supposed to be that way, and some of them are the BEST!
BTW, when I was at Barnes and Noble this afternoon I saw a new to me Pillsbury Bake Off winner book with a hard cover. On page 31 there is a feature of Anna!! Her winning recipe appears on that page too!
Those cookies are chocked full of goodness. I find it difficult to name recipes sometimes. I want to put the star ingredients in the title, but end up putting all the others, too.
Anna, is there any truth to ….spoon mixing to get fat cookies? An inquiring mind wants to know.
LOL. Looks like I’m not the only one who makes typos in recipes.
But I’d say there’s one egg since the instructions just say “egg”.
Mary, I think spoon mixing helps prevent overcreaming the batter and I do find that when I spoon mix, I get fatter cookies. You might want to put Google around and reading about “overcreaming” or just Google “creaming ingredients” for a good scientific explanation of why this happens.
