I am not a fan of baking... but teaching a group of 11 year old girls requires bribes (bribes=home baked goods). I'm not great with recipes and I usually either leave out an ingredient (you don't have to add the baking powder, right?) or burn it to a crisp. With that being said, and I don't care who you are, every woman wants to be able to make an especially fabulous fresh-outta-the-oven cookie. And people, it has been done. I have found the ultimate chocolate chip cookie recipe. The adorable Jana posted this recipe on her blog and I knew the genius was all in its simplicity. I baked the ones featured above and they were deliciously easy. I can't thank you enough Jana. No more hockey-pucks or flat discs at the Carn house!
Chocolate Jana Cookies
2 sticks of butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp each of vanilla, water, baking soda, salt
2 3/4 cups flour
1 cup instant oats
chocolate chips (I used the whole bag)
Bake at 375* for 9-10 minutes! (my oven runs hot and I used the full 10 mins.)
hahaha Love the title of this blog. Love it.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh. When I saw the title I thought, these cookies have a cup of boiled salt???
ReplyDeleteI am so glad the they worked for you! It is so easy, so you have to be careful not to make them too often and eat them all yourself. Not that I would know...
