cookies
while my mother makes the best brownies in the whole wide world, i'm afraid her cookies aren't my favorites. about a week and a half ago, i said i was gonna make cookies, but i never got around to it, so she made some on sunday. she makes them crunchy, though. and they're chocolate chip. the only cookies that should snap are ginger snaps and that's cuz that's their name. so now i have to eat all these. it makes me sad. what a waste of calories. i shoulda made 'em.

Happy Birthday to you!... Does your Mama read this...? If you have a yummy soft cookie recipe please send it this way. All my cookies are either hard or pancakey, so I've given up!
Oh and while I'm at it.. :) You say hello to me on another blog but yet... no comments on my blog! I am hurt! And we even ended up at blogger because of you! Oh the saddness!
but her krumkaka are great. and her pufferbellies. and her gingerbread boys. and i like the rosettes, too. and her aunt sallys, although she hasn't made those in a long time...
this is a common problem (my mom does it too -- they think they have to be brown/done before they take them out, but it's not true -- they keep cooking when they get out!) ... what you can do is put a slice of bread in the storage container with them. It softens 'em right up . . . not as good as being soft in the first place but better than crunchy! Or you could send them my way, that's another option. ;)
i don't have any specific recipe for softness, i just take them out earlier than my mother (and no, she doesn't read this). and kim -i've checked it! i just need to comment still. sorry!
and yeah, mom makes some cookies well, but chocolate chip, oatmeal raisin, etc...i'm just better. :) ask broller.
i'll have to try the bread thing.
