Status Updates From 100 Cookies: The Baking Boo...

P helped me make Chocolate Sugar Cookies for Aunt KK’s wedding shower tomorrow 😋😋😋 He got to save a few for himself and rolled them in sprinkles. Sometimes I’m a cool mom !

Gotta say, My Favorite Brownies are now MY favorite brownies. 10/10 no notes

#5: Peanut Butter Cookies

Because I'm a man of The People! (Luke is The People.) I was overall happy with how these turned out, but I do think the texture left a little bit to be desired. What matters most is what Luke thinks tomorrow, though!

In case anyone was worried, I have in fact created a spreadsheet to track my progress, including notes for improvement.

Snickerdoodles ✅
White Chocolate pistachio bark ✅
Chocolate crinkle cookies (which I totally wanted to save for Christmas but my toddler had other plans) ✅

P and I made the pan-banging Chocolate Chip Cookies recipe today and they are MASSIVE. Very delicious and a fun new technique!

#47: Danish Pear-Apple Bars

Making good on a promise! These were great—not at all too sweet, and not nearly as difficult as I expected. I'm already excited to make them again sometime; hopefully bartlett pears won't be in such high demand when the time comes.

French Sablés ✅
This is kind of a boring cookie but I also ate uhhhh more than 2 before they were completely cooled 🫣 so delicious - they made a great housewarming present for some friends!

Might be ambitious but my goal is to knock out 3 (maybe 4 👀) recipes this week, for various events. Will report back, obviously 🫡

I made the switch to percentage instead of page number to reflect how many of the 100 recipes we’ve made. This week, P and I tackled Cream Cheese Brownies 🤤🤤🤤 and Browned Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies. I can’t tell you how impressed I am that not one of these recipes has missed. Amazing. This was a great idea.

Another recipe down! Thin and Crispy Double Chocolate Cookies. Delicious as expected, but not as good as the regular Thin and Crispy Chocolate Chip Cookies, white remind me so much of Tate’s 😋

We have baked 4 recipes total:
- Soft Chocolate Chip Cookies
- Thin and Crispy Chocolate Chip Cookies
- Peanut Butter Cookies
- Brownie Cookies (x2)

So far, everything has been DELICIOUS! I’m loving this 🤤

Sooo many recipes I want to try!!! Love the design too

Alright people, it’s happening. This will be my first complete cookbook bake-thru. I am committed to baking every single one of these recipes. It might take me a year. Possibly 2. Maybe 10. But I will do it. And I’ll read every word, too.

P helped me make our first recipe last night - Thin and Crispy Chocolate Chip Cookies: delicious!!! Can’t wait to see what other treasures we find in this book 😍

#11: Snickerdoodles, because it's snickerdoodle szn! If only Goodreads would let me attach photos--they didn't crackle like I'd hoped, but they were still beautiful.
