I'm chuckling, but possibly inappropriately. Assume the ankle does not read your Broiler Room posts.

Wow! I made these for “breakfast” this morning and they are delicious!! I didn’t have any cranberries so I just put in extra pecans-which are my favorite! I’ll definitely make these often! I might even try them with the cranberries and ginger 😂

Bad Manners's avatar

ohhhhh i love double pecans. you're on to something.

If I used instant oats instead of rolled oats, would that affect my batter and consistency? Mine were kind of sticky and runny too.

Bad Manners's avatar

Yes, it absolutely would because they absorb liquid so much faster and break down quicker than rolled oats. You gotta use rolled for sure

Random Q: why do some cookie recipes call for the dough to be chilled for 30+ minutes before baking, and others don’t?

Bad Manners's avatar

not that random! it depends though. some doughs like chocolate chip really improve in flavor and texture from resting while others will spread too much while baking unless the fat in the dough is cold when it goes into the oven.

I just made these and the dough was super sticky not crumbly. I made some adjustments and I think they turned out OK.

Always cast blame as far from your skills as possible. Ankles don't define us, unless they betray us in public. Think of some of the entrances on late night shows where stars tripped on the top step before thousands of of viewers.

Bad Manners's avatar

it was absolutely the public nature of the betrayal that has ruined my relationship with my ankle.

Eeeek😳! That stinks about your ankle ! I’ve heard sprains are fucking painful ! I’m surprised I haven’t done the same as much as I text while walking, that or get run over lol

Cookies look delish ! First batch def a throwaway!😂

i sprained the other ankle 10 years ago in a very similar way so clearly I've learned NOTHING. They hurt like crazy and look straight up disgusting. This is what I get for bouncing around life trying to find joy lol

I sprained mine in October after being only 3 weeks out of a cast for fracturing my heel. Hot mess express over here. Anyhow, I'm going to try this with GF flour. I make a similar cookie from Shalane Flanagan's cook book, but I would like to mix it up a bit.

Bad Manners's avatar

Oh man, clearly we're cut from the some clumsy cloth. I think these would be great with a GF flour blend. Let me know how they work out!

AnneRG's avatar

Swapping out for GF flour worked! These came out very good.

OUCH! sorry about your ankle, i'm guessing that wasn't what you meant when you told santa you'd like to take a trip somewhere for christmas? but thanks for hobbling to your keyboard to send us the cookie recipe. gonna make a batch for the holiday party we're having this coming weekend... and i'll try not to trip while i'm running around baking goodies for it!

Bad Manners's avatar

seriously, i need to be more careful with my asks cause this is not the trip i was looking for. i looked so silly too. sighhhhhhhh
