Cookie Dough

[Mercy me]

I won't eat the pre-fab stuff either! I thought that I was the only one who was like that. I love fresh homemade cookie dough. Chocolate chip is the best!

Pre-fab? There are cookies not made from scratch (or from a mix made from scratch)? :

Nope. Oatmeal chocolate chip, maybe. But regular chocolate chip cookies have no need for walnuts.

OK, now that's just crazy talk. The walnuts make them that much better. Along with a splash of Frangelico.



The cookies I made were chocolate chip-peanut butter-oatmeal-coconut

they were yummy

No, no, no.

Chocolate chip cookies are supposed to be simple. Save the walnuts and pecans and Frangelico for the fancy cookies.

I am glad there is a mountain range between us so that your crazy "no nuts and Frangelico" ideas don't make it all the way to me. I'm going to pretend I didn't read them ...

I'll tell you what's obscene to have in cookies: raisins. I mean that is just freakin' wrong. If you're going to indulge in cookies, don't try to skimp and make them all pseudo healthy like. That's just pointless.

I'm not against them. They just belong in oatmeal/coconut/fancy/chewy cookies. Tollhouse style cookies should have none of that.

I like the cookie dough better then the cookies themselves!

see, there we will have to agree to disagree ... I like them better with the additions. Guess I am a fancy pants.

The cookies are better than the dough, but the dough is good too. Chocolate chip cookies ftw! (It's a new acronym I learned... for the win. I know, I'm so last year.) Nuts and raisins in cookies are evil beyond compare. The best is just baked, soft but not undercooked chocolate chip cookies with NO NUTS.

I love chewy chocolate chip cookies with no nuts. Specially when dipped in milk...

She loves to eat dough of any kind, but I don't do it often. Raw cookie dough is OK but I am ambivalent about it. I think it's because my mom had a salmonella phobia when we were kids and we could never eat the dough raw because of the raw eggs in it. My housemate has no such compunctions. So where do you stand![/quote]

My dad was always paranoid about salmonella (still is, actually), so he didn't like for me to just eat the dough. But I really like cookie dough much better than the actual cookies, usually. My solution? Leave out the egg and add more milk! As long as you aren't planning on baking the dough, it works fine. My roommate and I used to just sit on the couch with a bowl of cookie dough and a movie, actually.

So that some days when it's just nutso around here (and by "here" I mean someone else's house, of course), I (I mean, "some poor mom") can hand her child an oatmeal raisin cookie and a glass of milk and feel satisfied that breakfast has been served....
