My cooking triumphs
Cooking excellent vegetarian meals, crepes, and mastering the art of cookie making
My cooking tragedies
Today, I made really runny olive tapenade (so, what was I [a person who hates olives] doing making olive tapenade? I have no clue!)

Gazpacho
Very good and flavorful (I'm not too familiar with gazpacho and how it "should" taste). Maybe my eyes are sensitive, but I found myself crying while I was eating this, so I would lay off on the onions at least by half the amount the recipe calls for. Unfortunately I added feta before even trying the gazpacho without it because a friend said it was a must.

The Best Double Chocolate Chip Cookie
I can't exactly rate this recipe because I made one alteration that could have changed the outcome-- I used butter... but because I was taught to use butter. These cookies taste absolutely amazing and rich in chocolate. I never bake dark cookies, so it was very difficult for me to take them out right when the edges were dark/ a little under-baked (the way I like my cookies). These cookies were also not very aesthetically pleasing. But, I definitely thought the chocolate and crispiness of the cookies were fantastic.

Chex(R) Muddy Buddies(R)
I thought the chocolate/peanut butter combination and flavor was perfect. I accidentally bought UNSWEETENED banana chips (instead of sweetened) and didn't want to waste the. Somehow I thought about using the chips in this type of party mix form and used half banana chips and half chocolate Chex. I would recommend this. Although I didn't follow the recipe completely, I thought the ratios worked well.
