25 Days of Cookies: Sugar-doodle Vanilla Cookies


These cookies will mess with your mind! Your tastebuds will tell you that you're eating a sugar cookie but the texture will be all wrong! This is not to say that they aren't good cookies. The truth of the matter is that these are soft and chewy and delectable cookies that you'll want to make again and again but never share because you'll be too selfish to let anyone else have even one of these cookies. Who do you have to thank for this wondrous creation? Averie from Averie Cooks. Check out her blog for the recipe and read it for all the great information she gives about using bread flour in this cookie!


Yeah, bread flour. It might sound a little strange but the combination of all-purpose flour and bread flour makes for one excellent cookie. I knew I had to try it out after reading her post. She had me convinced and in the future I will be playing around with this recipe and the bread flour/all-purpose mixture. But not before the end of 25 Days of Cookies. I can't wait for a break from all this cookie baking.


Making this cookie was actually quite easy this morning. I prepared the dough last night after finishing yesterday's Brownie Cookie and then put it in a plastic container, capped it, and chilled in the refrigerator overnight. All I had to do this morning was preheat the oven, line the trays, and scoop the dough! It was like buying your cookie dough in the store only better because it's homemade.


Taking pictures, is always a bit of a challenge as I have very few photography skills, a poor camera, and never enough lighting. Oh and it's dark, dreary, and damp today too. Though "damp" is a bit of an understatement. Very little natural light to speak of much less use for photos.
