I'm so happy someone chose Dorie's World Peace Cookies. I've seen them floating around the blogosphere for probably 12 months but have never gotten around to making them. Thank you Jessica of Cookbookhabit!As with most slice and bake cookies these were a breeze to whip up. And even better without any egg in the mix I could eat the cookie dough! So I did ... lots!
I know many people found them very crumbly to slice. I had the same problem but they did squeeze back together pretty well. Any bits leftover, well, I ate them!
The taste test ...Sensational. What else can I say? I really loved these and can see them becoming a regular. I ended up using salted butter (because that's all I had left) and added a few grinds of salt from the grinder so I have no way of knowing how close to the required amount I actually got. Next time I'll make them exactly as is.
All my taste testers agreed these were probably the best chocolate chip cookies they'd eaten! Although my husband still prefers the Whopper Drops - in his mind that is now the standard against which all Dorie's cookies are measured! :)
UPDATE - they taste great frozen ... so much for hiding them in the freezer!

Your cookies look so perfect! Mine stayed in the same shape as when I cut them but I think they actually froze in the fridge.
ReplyDeleteThank you so very much for your generous awards! You have made my day. :)
That's so nice that you are giving awards to your blogging friends...they'll be honored, I'm sure!
ReplyDeleteNice job on the cookies!
Mine crumbled like that, but I smushed them back together again.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your awards - terrific name and blog! And the cookies are the best, are they not? They're my new favorite "slice and bake" - and yes, I had a couple "frozen", unbaked one. They were equally as good! Nice job!
ReplyDeleteyeah, it was neat how they just came together, huh? wonderful looking cookies.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your awards! That's great. Your cookies look wonderful.
ReplyDeleteSalted butter is a wonderful idea! I'm going to try that.
ReplyDeleteThey look lovely! Mine pressed back together pretty well too when they broke. Nice idea to freeze them... sorry they were too irresistible ;)
ReplyDeleteHA! I totally ate all of the crumbly bits as well! These are just too good and your cookies look amazing!
ReplyDeleteThese are indeed the best cookies ever.
ReplyDeleteSo how many cookies are we allowed to eat BEFORE baking?? Good both ways. Yours look great.
