Cookie Monster
Dec 11th, 2008 by Tana
Joey loves cookies. Can you tell?
These are actually Molasses Cookies from my classic Fanny Farmer Cookbook. Steve requested them, and I’d never made them before. The dough was not like cookie dough at all – I had to add flour to get it to hold together enough to shape cookies. Then they’re bitter, like molasses, and not very sweet. Not my idea of a good cookie. But Steve says they’re like he remembers them being as a kid. So I guess I made them correctly.
And this would be my favorite series of the fifty or so pictures I took of Joey eating cookies.
Stuffin’ it in.
Make sure you get it all in there.
Now check those fingers for crumbs.
And just for the record – I don’t give my child dozens of cookies to eat. He found the Tupperware container I keep them in in the kitchen and drug it out to the living room where he started eating them as fast as he could. Just saying…
And yes, I made him sit at the table proper like and eat the ones he’d already taken a bite out of. No sense spreading any more crumbs than necessary.
My little Cookie Monster.
