oh, the frustration!

chocolate chip cookies - superstar!
butter tarts - rock on!
lemon frost cookies - total suckage.

argh. i started prepping my cookies at 8:45. it's now 11:30, and i just finished them. i don't think they should have taken this long to do :P

  • first, next time i go shopping, i'm buying a 2nd cookie sheet - 1 just doesn't cut it.
  • second, i'm also going to figure out how to replace the electrical cord on my kitchen-aid - the handmixer is great, but it's hard to mix and pour ingredients simultaneously.
  • third, now i know how important it is to roll dough evenly - i think i might have some raw cookies.
  • fourth, i need to clean up my counters - i keep prepping and baking on the same counter space.
  • fifth, it's pretty important to follow the instructions. perhaps things didn't turn at AS well because i didn't have the butter at room temperate. oh well, live and learn.

i'm not even going to bother with a picture. they didn't turn out like the picture i saw. now that they're iced, you can't even tell they were once star-shaped :P

Hmm, I guess we won't be getting lemon frost cookies at the cookie exchange. Looking forward to some superstar chocolate chip cookies though!
