Cookies!

I'm going to a cookie swap on Sunday & I need to decide what cookies to make/bring.  I've been scouring the internet & bookmarking recipes as I go.  Below are a few of the cookies that are calling out to me.

Snowball cookies, aka Mexican wedding cookies.  I love these cookies, which is surprising since I'm typically a big chocolate lover.  I could eat an entire batch by myself & subsequently, probably will.  I don't know, it's something about all that butter, sugar & flour.  It speaks to me. 


Picture & recipe from Crepes of Wrath

I'm a big fan of Crepes of Wrath & bookmarked these cookies awhile ago.  I mean, how you could go wrong with salted chocolate & caramel?  The answer:  you can't. Might be above my pay-grade though.

Okay, these?  These I've been dying to make since Kate first posted this recipe.  These are a front runner because I can make the dough tonight & then bake them on Sunday morning.  Hmmm.... 


Picture & recipe from Alexis

I'm probably not going to make these cookies because of all the ingredients I'd have to buy, but I've had them & they are DELICIOUS! 

FYI -- there's a post on My Baking Addiction about how to host a holiday cookie exchange, which you can read here, if you're so inclined.  Lots of cute ideas.

I didn't comment on Kate's post about the Chocolate Chip cookies, but I made them, and honestly, they didn't knock my socks off. I followed her directions to the t, so I know that it's not that I made them wrong. I just didn't think that for all of the extra work & ingredients that they ended up tasting much better than my old stand-by Tollhouse recipe. If you make them, you'll have to let me know what you think. Maybe my taste buds just don't get excited about a high class cookie? I vote that you make the salted caramel ones!

Oooh, good to know, Nichole. Good to know. I'll report back. I'm 99% sure I'm making the snowball ones anyway, which I'm now calling 'Mexican Snowball'. Everyone is going to thing they're made out of drugs.

if you are ever going to make another chocolate chip cookie again, i would recommend using the recipe that i based that kitchen sink cookie on, here: http://www.americastestkitchen.com/recipes/detail.php?docid=19364
i think its the browned butter that really makes it.

Unfortunately I won't be there to sample the goods, but the Mexican wedding cookies look amazing. (This is coming from a minority non-chocolate lover though)

Ooooh, 10-4, Alexis.

Jessica, if there are any left-overs, I'll bring them to you on Monday. Cleetus needs cookies!
