For some time now I have been experimenting with cookie recipes and had found one that I was pretty confident in. My aim was now to try some flavours. I went for raspberry and white chocoloate first as today is Daddy's Day and I know my Dad likes them. Apparently he had them for the first time at a Millie's Cookies in York when I went for a university interview- ahh how sweet!
So, being me I decided to look into recipes again. This is where the cheat or experiment comes from. In using a recipe I got from the web I can't really say I am experimenting (aside from trying a new recipe) as I was working from someone elses recipe and not mine. However, I did use their recipe.
First off, what a lot of mixture! Biggest cookies ever! The smell of raspberries cooking is amazing! I couldn't resist breaking off an edge to try and I have to say I liked what I tasted. Cooking times need to be worked out though.
Handed them over to the family guinea pigs yesterday. Todays comments were, 'which millies did you buy them from' and my favourite 'Dad let me try one of the cookies. They are so good. Like millies cookies ones. You've cracked the cookie world'. Seeing as that was coming from two people who aren't found of 'soft' biscuits, that's not bad going. But still, it isn't my recipe it is someone elses!
Today I have made them again this time with my raspberries and then a second batch with dark chocolate and orange. I just made up the quantities for the these. They are in the oven as I type so we shall see what they come out like.
Fingers crossed! Tomorrow they go to the work guinea pigs!
