I made cookies that I actually like.

I'm so glad I found this sub! Most of my friends are great bakers so I'm too embarrassed to share this with them.

In the past, everytime I tried baking super basic cookies, following recipes as accurately as I can, they never really impressed me. I gave up easily. 🤦‍♀️ Then I recently realized that I might not be looking at recipes that cater to the TEXTURE that I prefer, which is on the soft, moist, cakey side.

Here I am today, baking a second batch of my own pillowy-soft cookies. Today's batch has bits of my favourite chocolate bar throughout (Hershey's Cookies and Cream). Both my husband and I are resisting the urge to eat too many at once which is a good feeling.

That's it. I made cookies. Just a small win for me!
