Chocolate chip cookies
So I'm on the phone with Derek when Jaci pops in the room and says, "I want to make cookies!" Naturally, I can't resist a cooking project so I tell her we will make some. We asked Derek what his favorite kind were and he told us chocolate chip cookies. Now, I have a very generic recipe for chocolate chip cookies that I got from my mother, and I love that I know it off the top of my head. However, for some stupid reason, I decided to look up recipes for chocolate chip cookies. Maybe to make absolutely amazing cookies that were better than my own...or just wanting to try something new. So I find a recipe entitled, "Award winning soft chocolate chip cookies" Sounds like a winner, right? Jaci and I made them mini-cookies or as I like to call them "two-biters."
The recipe called for "a box of instant vanilla pudding" which I thought was the only ODD thing about the recipe. So, I dump in a box of vanilla pudding and we bake these cookies that are to die for outta the oven. (We ate some of the cookie dough too...couldn't resist!)
However, when I woke up this morning, these cookies were like BRICKS! I couldn't believe how HARD they were...didn't the name of the recipe state SOFT? If you throw them in the microwave for 8 seconds they go back to being AMAZING but still, they are hard as rocks!
