He Runs, I Cook

And WHY has it taken me so long to make one???

So, this week I made Snickerdoodles. I have never eaten a snickerdoodle before, let alone made one. But my friend, JJ, requested them and so this week, I made Snickerdoodles. And they were yum! They were a bit of a departure from my normal cookie- they’re very simple sugar cookies rolled in cinnamon and sugar. They’re very light, very mindful and very demure. And, I have to make them again…because my friend, JJ, didn’t get to eat them! She wasn’t in class this week and missed out!

I also continued my First Lady Bake Off/pre-election streak with Jill Biden’s Oatmeal Craisin Chocolate Chip Cookies. They were ok- not amazing but ok. The cranberries give it a different sweetness to raisins, but I’m not 1000% convinced on them.

We’re coming up to the US Election- so next week, I’m continuing my First Lady Baking with Hillary Clinton’s Chocolate Chip Cookies. I really want to make Michelle Obama’s Mama Kaye’s White and Dark Chocolate Chip Cookies BUT they need Andes Mints or mint chocolate chips, which sadly are NOT a thing here in Australia! :(.
