It's wonderful and snowy outside, and what better thing to do when it snows then have some friends over to bake? There's something magical about delicious smells wafting out of a hot oven while outside, the world is blanketed in white. Tonight I had a couple friends over and, after much debate, we decided on snickerdoodle cookies. Not too complicated yet delicious, even though it does use a little more butter than I normally like to cook with. Some snickerdoodle recipes use cream of tartar, which make them a little edgier, but I stuck with the basic snickerdoodle recipe and they came out pretty darn good. The dough is pretty delightful to eat on its own as well, although some foodie purists may frown upon the whole eating-raw-egg deal.
Luckily, at the end of the night, I was able to send most of the remaining cookies (we must have eaten half the batch fresh) home with friends. Me + being snowed in + plate of cookies = a bad, if not delicious, future.
