Cookie Experimenting

The Great Cookie Experiment strikes again.

Those cookies I teased you with yesterday? Pretty darn good, if I do say so myself. They’re still not the perfect cookie (in fact, I’m tempted to call them “Scookies” because they’re almost scone-like), but they’re definitely yummy!

Again, this recipe was adapted from and most certainly inspired by Mama Pea‘s Soft-Baked Oatmeal Raisin Cookies. Love her! Check her blog out. Her kids, Gigi and Lulu, are so freaking cute.
