Inspired by this Slate article and the discovery that I had both chocolate AND peanut butter chips in the cupboard, I baked cookies. Beautiful cookies. I need to keep the illusion of a perfect life alive!
These might seriously be the prettiest cookies I’ve ever made. Usually I’m too lazy/unwilling to sticky up my hands to roll little dough balls and just plop spoonfuls willy-nilly, which bake all deformed and ugly and usually end up sticking together. But NOT TODAY. Today I rolled the dough balls and spaced them out properly and even rotated my baking sheets. Add this to my recent spate of actually cooking dinner and I’m like a homemaking machine! Now if I could only do all this while keeping up with the laundry… Oh and I should have taking pictures while I was baking because I used my matching M-Cup Matroyshka measuring cups and M-Spoons Matryoshka measuring spoons, how whimsical and precious of me.
As usual I used the Olive Oil Chocolate Chip Cookies recipe from The Crepes of Wrath.
We share an interesting matryoshka obsession…I totally bought the measuring spoons to match my measuring cups about a few months ago…. SOUL MATES??

Also I have these and they are amazing and stack inside one another!
I’ve seen those before, they’re really cute!
Yummy.Happy Friday!I’m blog hopping today. I enjoyed my visit to your lovely blog. Wishing you happiness and a fabulous weekend of Happy, Katherine
Thank you 🙂
I’m glad you like the olive oil cookies. I don’t think anybody would even notice there’s no butter in them unless you pointed it out.
I make them all the time and no one has ever noticed or said HEY! WHAT FAT PRODUCT DID YOU USE IN THESE?
