It’s October!!!! Does anyone know what that means??? It is almost Halloween!!! Yes you may think I am crazy but I am super excited!!! I also have all of this wonderful stuff to bake with for Halloween!! Wait till you see what I will be creating throughout the month!
I did take my turn with the Cookie Press again, and still I LOVE this cookie press. I tried a new recipe and well it just didn’t work. The cookies came out tasting fabulous, however look wise they were far from up to par. I tried it in the cookie press and also tried using some great Halloween cookie cutters that I have and well when they were cooking they flattened right out and all of the shapes disappeared. So apparently the recipe was not good enough for the cookie press or for the cookie cutters. I will keep working on this. I will upload the photo of the cookies later today when I am able to connect my camera.
As you can see some of them almost kept some form, and this last one that almost looks like a drunk Mickey Mouse head, well that was a cat for Halloween and then some cookies were around it that I pressed out from the cookie press. It was just funny, but they tasted really good!!! Now I just need to work on appearance! I will get there!
I had tried sugar cookies this time, where last time I used the cookie press I made a batch of butter cookies. Those stayed formed so I might have to go back to that but figure out how to add some flavor. The wheels are certainly spinning in my head! I will figure this out!
to add flavor, just add cocoa powder, or flavorings, like coconut, raspberry almond, etc.
