First, I jumped for joy.
Second, I prepared the cookies.
Third, I sent Mattie the following message:
Matt,
The last time I made your cookie recipe I decided to be an absolute fool and not bake all of them (I know, stupid, right?).
Instead, I placed approximately 1/3 of the dough in the freezer. (This was in january)
The dough was discovered tonight (hiding below a batch of baby food...so sneaky) and within approximately 7 1/2 minutes rolled (er "sliced"...still frozen) and placed into the oven.
Your cookies are about to face the ultimate test. How do they hold up after being frozen?
I know you are dying to hear the answer to THAT.
to be continued...
Well. The timer has buzzed, cookies have been eaten, and therefore happiness returned to the earth.
Verdict?
cookies=good.
cookies=good.
not as pretty though. probably because I sliced them.
they took an extra 1 min 45 seconds to bake.
they took an extra 1 min 45 seconds to bake.
This means that I went from having no really awesome cookies to having a lot of really awesome cookies in less than 15 minutes, with nothing but a single cookie sheet to be washed.
Did that just blow your mind?!

I guess you're going to have to share the recipe because now I am dying to give it a whirl!
And yes, we just bought our big beautiful house less than a year ago :( It is a very long story but the jist is this: We hadn't sold our old house yet so we had Joel's brother co-sign (our house was pending sale). Joel got TONS of work for his business 2 hours north of where we lived. So after praying we decided we needed to move. BUT Joel's brother FLIPPED out and felt used so he demanded 50% of any equity we got (we got a bargain on the house and we stood to make a bit of money) because he said he was co-owner. In the end, our bishop said one brother had to give the house up...that was us. It's a sad story. Here we are living with my mom until we find a place. Phew! That's that.
When I read that in your status last night, I hated you. For just a second. I looked in every cupboard, drawer, bin, container, fridge/freezer for a good treat. It was too late too bake, and I just needed SOMETHING. It is my dream to find cookie dough in my freezer.
way to go.
