I decided for the first time ever to make cookies from scratch over the holidays.
Many successes, many failures. I am especially pissed and followed the directions perfectly and having things turn out badly.
Turns out, for some reason, any "normal" cookie, I can screw up. Butter cookies, sugar cookies, and the chocolate chip ones were a disaster. Yet, the weird stuff, came out awesome! Italian lemon-iced cookies, jam-filled and orange-almond biscottis all rocked.

Wow! My 2000th post!!!!

I'm a piss poor baker myself....
that's why I buy store bought cakes, cookies, etc. then add my own flare to them...
example:
take those Keebler's soft batch chocolate chip cookies, melt some hershey's white chocoalte chips in a bowl (microwave it about 30 seconds) and take some regular chocolate cake frosting and water it down with some milk...
lay the cookies out, spread the frosting on them then drizzle the white choclate sauce over them in a criss-cross pattern
that recipe will get you laid ;-)
