Comments on: Confusion cookies http://www.almostgotit.com/2007/05/22/confusion-cookies/ With every failure my reputation grows Mon, 08 Sep 2008 12:26:12 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.1.2 By: Ann http://www.almostgotit.com/2007/05/22/confusion-cookies/#comment-437 Ann Tue, 22 May 2007 19:04:00 +0000 http://www.almostgotit.com/2007/05/22/confusion-cookies/#comment-437 I have always believed that making cookies is the antidote to almost anything that ails you (although it was better in the days before fear of foodborne illness, when you could help yourself to that dollop of cookie dough). I have never before seen a three ingredient cookie recipe, and will look forward to giving this one a try! P.S. Good luck with the interview thing. Hopefully they're putting you through the wringer for a good reason!

And this recipe really is delicious and so UNCOMPLICATED, too. To make it even easier (by avoiding the messy step of measuring peanut butter, and ending up with nothing to wash but your mixing bowl): Empty one small jar (18 oz) of PB in a bowl. Then (almost) fill the jar with sugar, and dump that in, too. Add 2 eggs. Mix. Drop. Bake. Done! :) Thanks so much for your comment (and encouragement), Ann.

It's like some perfect Zen thing. I wonder if you could make it with brown sugar. I think I'll try it. Actually, when the Rocky Road romance gets to a stage where Harry is forced to cook one-man, one-dish meals, this would be great. Perhaps you could lend it to him. I’ve never seen this recipe.

Yes, we must tell Harry about the no-measuring-cup variation I discovered as well. It disrupts the 1+1+1, triune beauty somewhat, but has a certain bacheloresque quality which appeals. Let me know how brown sugar works. Most standard PB cookie recipes split the difference. Isn’t it lovely? Yes, we must tell Harry about the no-measuring-cup variation I discovered as well.

A man who doesn't cook won't have a measuring cup. What a clever twist! I have an old and truly wonderful recipe for coconut-oatmeal cookies that's half white/half brown sugar. It also calls for shortening--not butter. It's great. I hadn’t thought of that. A man who doesn’t cook won’t have a measuring cup. What a clever twist!
