The way I see it, there are 2 ways to deal with rainy snowy days. You can order a pizza, put on your jammies and watch an old movie or you can bake cookies.
Today I’m going the cookie route.
When it’s gloomy out and you might be feeling a little gloomy yourself, you don’t want crazy, fancy cookies. Save the macarons, cutesy cut-outs, and sandwich cookies for another occasion. We’re looking for classic: crisp, crackly exterior with a chewy center. Chocolate? Good idea. Peanut butter? Maybe if I had some…let’s try almond butter instead. Chocolate and almonds. Might as well toss in some coconut and go for an Almond Joy sort of thing.
