I used Rosanna Pansino's Best Chocolate Chip Cookies recipe and they turned out really good!

I am proud of myself. 😊

If you’re interested, there’s a peanut butter cookie recipe that only has three ingredients so it’s super easy:

1 cup of peanut butter
1 cup of sugar
and 1, egg.

Mix all that in a bowl, roll them into balls and bake for 10-15 min. Let cool for like a half-hour or so.

The ingredients in recipes like this one astound me. Like I don't know much about baking, so I wouldn't think that a list of ingredients that simple can add up to a cookie!

And then you have bakers with the knowledge and experience to just think these ingredients might work together and just try them out. Absolute masters of their craft that people don't give enough credit

It reminds me of the cobbler recipe I've always made.

1 cup of self rising flour
1 cup of milk
1 can of pie filling
1 cup of sugar
1 stick of butter (I have better results cutting it up into chunks)

Mix it all in a pot and bake until brown into. If I recall correctly, I bake it at 450 (F, unsure about C) for around 45 mins.
