My allergies made me feel puny and kinda got in the way of my baking Hackathon cookies. But I'm back today and sending in Amazingly soft oatmeal raisin cookies from a fellow Voxer's recipe. I couldn't bring myself to put in the raisins. But they're full of semi-sweet chocolate chips. Also, I use salted butter by default, so I didn't use as much salt as the recipe called for and slightly less brown sugar. They turned out lovely, soft and a good combination of salty sweetness. Sending 50+ cookies in with Brad tomorrow.
My baking attempts last night failed miserably? because I didn't read the directions right and didn't multiply everything by 2 for 2 batches.
I didn't cry, but I was very disappointed since it's a favorite cookie at our house. They were still edible, (ok the failure was not that miserable) so Brad suggested we lather them in a spoon of nutella for the kids' breakfast. It worked.
Although I prefer sending something in on a Wednesday, because Wednesdays seem like a good day for that, I will try again tonight on a different cookie.
After last night though, I'm all right with failing again. It gets easier :)
