my newest cookie creation
last week i "invented" a new cookie (it's a spinoff of the original choc chip recipe you'll find on your average c chip bag) that tastes like a browine with the texture of a cookie, or something that like, let's call it a brookie! anyways, while making these cookies i got into a huge argument with my mom that basically went like this...why are you baking cookies?
i guess cause i was feeling stressed and the kitchen calms me
do you want to be fat again!?!?!
anyways, it went on like that and was frustrating and in general mom fashion rather than talk about anything she stormed off and pretended like the conversation never took place once she returned.
just for clarification, one can eat cookies and manage to not get fat, amazingly enough.
so here's the brookie cookie recipe...
2 sticks of butter
3/4 c sugar
3/4c brown sugar
2 eggs
1tbs real vanilla extract
cream all those ingredients together
then add the following ingredients:
1.5 tsp salt
1 tsp b. soda
1/4 c cocoa powder
2.5 c flour
mix well.... then mix in
1/2 bag mini c. chips
1 or 2 cups of pecan pieces
1/2 bag mini m&ms
scoop big spoonfuls onto a tray and cook at 375 for 10 minutes or so or you can put them in a jelly roll or glass brownie dish as bars and cook at 350 for around 20 minutes....
YUMMY!

I am here to testify - these cookies are super yummy!!!
we have decided they are better as traditional blob cookies, they lack something when they are cooked in bar form.
hmm...i will have to try this, but the whole situation with the oven here may require that i make them as bars. but i agree, in general cookies are better as cookies than bars. These sound really really good. anyone want to mail me some mini-mnms?
if i mail you mini m&ms will you get them or will the egyptian mail police take them away? jason told me they opened the letter i sent him (weird) and that was just a letter- creep-o-zoids...
umm, i think i would get it. just make sure that it's like a borwn envelope type package. they'll open the package, but normally they just tape it back up and send it on its way, sans money or whatever. they'll probably charge me for it, but it will be worth it. Let me know if you send something, so I can watch for it to come. :-)
