I rule!

I made Snickerdoodles, and they taste like Snickerdoodles.
I have increased my cookie repetoire to 3.
1) No-bakes, which Crispian calls Double Chocolate Goodness (not that they are any different than anyone else's no-bakes, and he has no idea they are full of oatmeal.
2) Kitchen sink cookies. Still not perfect yet, but this last batch was the best so far. I mix it all in the food processor. Since I am feeding them to Myles and Crispian, I leave out the nuts and raisins and double the chocolate chips. I think I still need to back off the peanut butter a little from the official recipe. I also use 1/3 soy flour in place of the flour--I got this tip from the Mennonite Cookbook you can get at Ten Thousand Villages. It does make them a slight bit chewier, and though I have yet to test the theory, it is also supposed to give them a longer shelf life. Cookies? Shelf life? The best thing about these cookies is that Crispian says he hates oatmeal cookies and peanut butter cookies. Shhhhhhhhhhhhh!
3) Snickerdoodles
Sometime this weekend I hope to tackle Spritz. I have made them before, years ago, so I don't anticipate failure. I would also love to make Gingerbread, which, again, I did a long time ago (for those of you who have known me a long time, I was at the Greeves St address!!), but they ended up being too hard. Yummy, but hard. If there were a way to make them without having to roll them out, that would be perfect. Maybe there is something in the Cooky Book.
I would love to make Wendy Cookies/Nikki Cookies. But the oven in our house is just awful. The thermostat doesn't work so well, and there is a meat thermometer inside the oven that I am trying to trust. I think the Wendy Cookies might need good oven control.
