I was pretty busy this weekend getting ready for a road trip to Ohio, so I didn’t have much time to make anything special. So, as a minor cop-out, I made 2 kinds of cookies from Dorie’s wonderful book.

Brown Sugar-Pecan Shortbread Cookies (pg. 127)
Modifications
I used dark brown sugar and my nuts weren’t ground as finely. I really need to get a new food processor.

They didn’t really turn out anything like the picture. 3 stars out of 5.
Chunky Peanut Butter and Oatmeal Chocolate Chipsters (pg. 73)
Modifications
I used about 2/3 cup smooth peanut butter and a whole bag (12 oz) of chocolate chips.

Very flavorful and easy to make. 4 stars out of 5.

I too made the oatmeal, peanut butter, and chocolate cookies. Weren’t they great? There was a lot going on in the cookie when I baked it, with all those different flavors.
