#8 of the treat yo' self challenge
Cookie Jar Contenders chapter
The instant Rose saw this photo of cookies with Reese's pieces in them, she was sold! There was no way she was requesting any other recipe in this book. And I have to admit they looked pretty good to me too - like a peanut butter cookie married an oatmeal chocolate chip cookie and they threw Reese's pieces confetti at the wedding. What's not to love?
No new techniques or anything fancy, just a new combination of ingredients in slightly different ratios that most of the cookie recipes I used.
Verdict: Pretty good! Next time I would refrigerate the dough longer before baking, and also shape the dough prior to refrigerating. Also, the cookbook author stressed that the cookies should definitely NOT be baked any longer than 12 minutes...but mine must have been bigger than hers (I ended up with 4 dozen, rather than the 5 dozen she predicted) because my first tray was clearly underdone and subsequent trays took more like 15-17 minutes. But with those tweaks, I would definitely make this recipe again! And I'm sure Rose will be asking for it again soon :)
