First One of The New Year!

Happy New Year!

I changed up the design here so if you (mom and Big) are

having any trouble reading this, drop me an e-mail.

Mike and I were sitting here watching a dismal game we shall call 

football, 

watching a dismal team we shall call

Da Bears, 

when I got the yearning for some fresh out of the oven cookies.

I think it was a cry for comfort food.

So I pulled these out:

And then it occurred to me that I don't believe I have shared

this little nugget of wisdom:

freezing your own raw cookie dough for baking later!

TaDa!

I use that great little scoop that I use to freeze left over tomato paste

but scoop cookie dough instead.

Lay the scoops out on a cookie sheet and freeze over night

then just pop them in a ziploc bag for later!

It's a great way to achieve portion control at the same time

getting fresh cookies without all the hassle.

Just put the frozen gems on a baking sheet and bake 375 degrees

for about 10 minutes, just like you would if they weren't frozen.

Yum!

Didn't help Da Bears, but I feel better :o)
