Whiskey and Cookies…

Is the exact energy I’m bringing into my 45th trip around the sun. It’s my birthday this week.

I do love my birthday- and the best thing about it being on a Wednesday, is I get to celebrate for two weekends- not just one. It’s been a good week of celebrations so far- a family trip to the footy, family dinner, and a mother-son date night to go see Annie The Musical.

Who knows what fun this week will hold– but I’m sticking with the Boozy cookie theme (again)! This week, it’s Chocolate Chip Cookies with Tennesee Whiskey (Jack Daniel’s). They’re pretty good! It just gives subtle flavours- nothing too crazy but they’re good!

And in other news, I’m planning to do another dance competition…. my theme: Cookie Monster!

Another week, another boozy cookie…

I’m not sure how I’ve gotten into the alcoholic cookie phase of baking but here we are yet again. I wanted to make these Tennesse Whiskey and Chocolate Chip cookies but we only had fancy whiskey in our liquor cabinet… and well, I didn’t want to risk the wrath of The Runner by using one of his good bottles or Scotch or Whiskey or whatever in a batch of cookies.

Any of you want to be in a cookie???

So I’ll save the Tennesee Whiskey cookies for next week- I’ll have to buy a tiny airplane sized bottle of Jack Daniel’s and hope that no one sees me. Not that there’s shame in drinking Jack Daniel’s but I do wonder who buys those tiny little bottles- and why? Anyway, that’s next week’s problem.

Next week’s other problem, what kind of cookies will I make for MY VERY OWN BIRTHDAY???? There are so many yummy ones I’ve made that I legitimately can’t choose! Maybe the Mexican Hot Chocolate ones?? Maybe the Van Stapele ones that kicked off this whole cookie madness??? Who knows!

This week, I made Kahlua Tia Maria Chocolate Chip Cookies. We didn’t have Kahlua so I improvised and they’re not so bad. I mean, last week’s Malibu Oatmeal Cookies were some of the best I’ve ever made. The Bailey’s Chocolate Chip ones were pretty good too…I think I’m onto something with my boozy cookie phase… I just need some more ideas for recipes!!!
