Every month is national something or other. But this month it’s a good one. Coooookies!
DO
…try the “mock” Doubletree Hotel Chocolate Chip Cookies recipe. As someone who’s favorite thing in the world is making, and trying to perfect, my chocolate chip cookie recipe, I must say these cookies are near perfection. The Neiman Marcus / Mrs Fields urban legend recipe is mighty fine as well.
…throw a cookie exchange party. Why wait for the holidays to start fattening up? I mean, to start having fun.
…make some fun cookie life list goals like “Make perfect cookies and have a midnight baked good feast with friends” or “bake cookies for a neighbor” (a good excuse in itself!)
Some cookie recipes to get you started on Recipezaar.
DON’T…
…shut down an iconic cookie company suddenly, leaving the world hanging without the chance to stockpile animal shaped sugar blobs that remind us of our childhood.
My more optimistic friends think that someone will take over Mother’s Cookies and bring it back to life. If not, well, take plenty of photos. For who can forget the texture and flavor of the sprinkles crunching, the thick layer of hard icing, and the cookie crunch?
