Cheery Cherry Cookies


Date: 13 November 2024
Bakers: Keizo

I liked these cookies a lot! They were quite good (and I have since made them 2 more times). The problem has been that they spread out more than I like. It would be better with a thicker cookie. I also feel like I cut up the cherries too much or there was not enough cherries. The subsequent attempts to bake these ones were worse (they spread out more) .... as a note, they were chilled in the fridge, so I'm thinking that they should be chilled (I will make them again at some point without chilling to see if they work out better).

I did gave some to a neighbour, who throughly enjoyed them.  This was because we have too many cookies in the house, and I had to slow down my baking ...

Verdict:

Will Make Again? Yes!!
Kid Approved? Edible

Any Holiday Sprinkle Cookies


Date: 10 October 2024
Bakers: Keizo, Evan

These cookies were decent, but very 'plain'.  They were thin and crunchy.  Creating 'coloured sugar' was the highlight of the cookie. Instead of red and green, there was a request for 'rainbow' which required many containers for mixing of the sugar.

The cookies also are school friendly, so its likely that they would be made again ... kids enjoyed the rainbow sugar ... but I feel like a solid colour would be better.

Verdict:

Will Make Again? Yes, they are school friendly
Kid Approved? So-So
