cookies

im all excited for halloween this year and one of the things i wanted to do was make halloween sugar cookies. so i got the cookie cutters from my mom and mixed all the "cokkie stuff" together in my fancy schmancy pink kitchen aid mixer. now either i cant make homemade cookies or sugar cookies are hard (im thinking i suck). i was going to make 4 dz. but i got like 1 dz. i really didnt do somehting right when i mixed it up because i would try to roll it in to a ball (stick it all together) so i could roll it out flat but when i tried to roll it out it just cracked and crumbled. so when i finally got somehting i could use the cookie cutters on i tried to pick them up and they would fall apart. i did manage to fill the first cookie sheet but the first batch i did i used really small cutters and i burnt them. so i tried one more sheet and that was it...

Peenut butter cookies please....i have been craving like crazy.....also if you want sugar cookie experience...talk to me...best thing to do is mix up a good batch - roll it into a big doobie shape and wrap with plastic wrap. Chill at least over night - then slice before baking. Always - always underbake - like if the recipe says 7-8 minutes - bake it for 5-6 minutes.

Im sounding like that old bag martha !!!!

I think your cookies look great, Amanda! You'll get it, don't worry. You are going to be a great baker, I know.
I love that I get to see you grow into a woman, Amanda. Don't mean to get all sappy, but it means a lot to me. Thanks for blogging.
