Our Cookbook Blog

Our Cookbook ~ What We Cook, is a compilation of every recipe we (Janice and Carissa) cook - recipes from our cookbook collections, our recipe boxes, and our heads! We set up this blog for friends and family who have our cookbook to let them see pictures we post of the recipes in the book, and also for us to note any corrections, revisions, or additions to What We Cook. We encourage people who are cooking our recipes to let us know how the recipes turn out and any suggestions they might want to make.

In addition, we will be sharing some of our new recipes (along with pictures) that are not in our cookbook. We hope you will help us out and test recipes and give us your comments.

Carissa's Choclate Chip Cookies page ~ 206

YUM! These were perfect. The shortening makes them a little thicker, so they don't spread out so much, and the chilled dough in the fridge helps with that too. For those that weigh your flour, I used 390 grams of flour. Below is how I store my dough in the fridge, just wrap in plastic wrap. If you aren't gonna bake within a couple days, I would stick the plastic wrapped hunk of dough in a large freezer zip lock bag and toss it in the freezer for a rainy day.
Evelyn loved arranging the dough balls on the sheet!

Now I have a nice stash in the freezer for when I need an emergency dessert for guests that come over. Give them a try! --Carissa
