Hi all, I'm new here, been lurking for a couple days with out posting, but I just had to add something to this one....
The best possible thing you can do to a plain ol chocalate chip cookie recipe is to toast about half a cup of slivered almonds and add them with the chips. I'm not very fond of nuts in cookies, but these are to die for, I promise!!
Oh, and Ven... I work in a costco bakery... in some of them, if you ask real nice, they will give you a free cookie to munch while you shop
All the recipes sound YUMMY. Thank you so much. I' loved all the tips on adding extra vanilla, almonds, nuts, dipping in chocolate, dipping in nuts, grating chocolate. I would have never thought to do that. I love fudge so I will also make some.
All the recipes sound so good that I'm going to buy the ingredients & try all of them. Then instead of just taking one kind of chocolate chip cookies.. I'll give me a box with all the different chocolate chip cookies including some fudge.
I'll take a picture of them & post them on the net once I get back early Jan. I'm flying a week from tomorrow (14th)
Killer has another semantic meaning besides the opposite of living. It can also mean "Yummy-Good-Tasty-delicious" It just depends on the context of the conversation.
I have been searching for the best ccc recipe for at least 20 years. The one that I get the most compliments (from hundreds of high school students) over the years is the one on the back of Ghirardelli Semi Sweet Chocolate Morsels Package.
I have tried it mixing by hand, and it was no big deal, but once I actually followed the directions (because I got a new electric mixer and I just had to make something...) beating it to oblivion like the directions said and WOW!!! In fact if I weren't right in the middle of making Rugalah right now for a Hanukah party tonight, I don't think I could last the night without making some.
Try it, you'll see what I mean. And don't mess around the first time, just double it from the start. If you don't you'll be sorry.
