CK aka Superman asked me in his comment on a previous post whether I could make cookies and I told him no. Unfortunately, that is the truth and I still cannot. However, that did not stop my from trying.
I had a bit of the pastry left from making the pies the other day and I did not want to throw it away as it would be just a waste. So I divided it into two portions and added brown sugar and Milo to one…and oats and castor sugar to the other. Then, I rolled them and using a cookie cutter, I cut the pastry and laid them out on a greased baking tray…
After that, I put them into the oven to bake. The end result did not look very encouraging…
…but they tasted nice. I like the ones with oats, but my daughter prefers the Milo ones.
They definitely do not look good enough to be served to guests, that’s for sure. Maybe if I brush the top of the oats cookies with egg, they may end up with a nicer golden colour.
Anyway, this is just the beginning, not the end. Rest assured that I will be back at it soon and hopefully, I will succeed in making cookies that not only taste nice but look presentable as well. Meanwhile, I’ll just go and sit in a corner and sulk… @#$%+&*!!!! LOL!!!
...STILL CRAZY AFTER ALL THESE YEARS!
