Just fake it: Baking cookies
Posted Friday, May 23, 2008 at 10:07AM
I really like cookies, no wait, I freaking love cookies. I love cookies so much that I put myself on a one-year ban from them. Yes, I banned myself from cookies. The next cookie I have will be April 11, 2009 (yeah, I know the date). Anyways … just because I can’t eat cookies doesn’t mean I can’t share my cookie secrets with you.
I bake. Well I “fake-bake”. I always use the Betty Crocker’s cookie mix that comes in a bag. Slice and bake cookies taste like they came out of plastic tube. Those plastic tubes are great for eating cookie dough raw (yeah, I do that too) but for tricking people into thinking you spent hours in the kitchen — not so much.
A favorite of mine is Betty Crocker’s sugar cookie mix because you can turn them into pretty much any kind of cookie. I like to crush up pistachios and add dried cherries to the mix when I make cookies, which equals deliciousness! Betty Crocker had a baking mix contest earlier this year and the contestants came up with some delicious recipes … not that I tried them but the do look delicious. Check them out here>>
