Since we have all new neighbors this year, we decided why not welcome them to the block with some cookies? Our house seems to have a love for all Pioneer Woman recipes. She literally comes up about once a day so we decided on her Monster Cookies recipe. Chloe claimed that all of the boys at University of Arkansas LOVED them when she gave them to her friend’s fraternity. Since all of our neighbors are boys we decided they were a safe bet.
For some reason our oven is always off on temperature so we ended up FRYING our first batch. Luckily we overestimated how much we would need and quadrupled the recipe so we had MORE than enough.
Since we don't have a wire rack, tin foil had to do the job.
The cookies were quite a hit, and we are now our neighbors’ favorites! Guess we will just have to keep up with the baking throughout the year.
Perfection.
