I HATE IT WHEN COOKIES BLEED AND RUN!

Sorry, had to yell a bit there, it makes me crazy because I hate waste (and the mess!)lol!

And yes, baking is a bit less forgiving that cooking. It's really an art to get a dough incorporated so it won't run yet not overmix it so the resulting baked good won't be tough. A lot of the time if I am making any cookie with butter in it, I will chill it at least an hour before, as it lends a better structure to the finished product.

Of course, I really don't know what I am doing, I just have had a lot of practice at getting the results that I want 😉

And I am a huge proponent of parchment paper, I also despise scrubbing cookie sheets lol. That said, I hope if you make these that they turn out for you, it sounds like you deserve some non-runny cookies of tastiness😊

Well, I had to go and make these today because reasons. I think I made them a little small, I got four dozen instead of three. I don't keep any almond extract or grape jelly in the house, so I just added an extra 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla, and filled them with raspberry and strawberry jam. Two dozen got raspberry, one got strawberry, and one (which I gave to my neighbour) got chocolate chips in the centre. I also turned the temperature down to 350, because some from the first batch were black on the bottom (still edible, though).

You made them! And they look yummy! I love raspberry jam, especially with chocolate as an addition!

Isn't it crazy how ovens and baking sheets and humidity all vary so much? Like, I can totally see that your cookies spread a bit more than mine, and I am wondering what your humidity is in your part of the world? I think I would almost always chill my cookie dough for at least 30 mins in the freezer or an hour in the fridge before baking if I had that happening.

I'm just glad they were edible for you, none are left here lol!

And sorry I am slow to reply, I watched my friend's three year old boy all weekend so they could get away for their anniversary, I'm gonna go take a nap now...
