There's not a whole lot of space for me in my current apartment, so some recipes are on hold until I move (2 more months!) and have more space to hold ingredients, cookware, etc. One day I just desperately wanted chocolate chip cookies. I even had all the ingredients! Well...almost all. I did not have baking powder and/or baking soda. Which was required for EVERY recipe. And, I was lazy, I didn't want to have to go out and buy any. Not to mention I wasn't sure I'd have room to store the leftover. Then, in a remarkable quirk of fate, I stumbled upon a Bisquick chocolate chip cookie recipe! "Whaaa???" I thought! I debated it. I was like, "What if they're bad? Then it'll be a complete waste!". I even petitioned my facebook friends to see if they had any experience with this (no one did). In the end I decided "I really want chocolate chip cookies. And how bad could it be?".
Let me tell you what-this was a success! The first thing that indicated this would turn out well was the fact that the cookie dough was scrumdidlyumptious! Mmm...I want some now.....
Ah! Sorry, got distracted. Anyway, I baked them (what was left after I assaulted the dough), and ate them, and they were great! The texture is definitely different, it will be obvious this is different than a normal cookie, it sort of reminds you of a Bisquick biscuit (which makes sense), but in a still perfectly tasty way! Don't get me wrong, I would never choose these before a good old fashioned real chocolate chip cookie. But, if you are feeling lazy, or just are missing a couple ingredients, these are a great way to still get your cookie fix!
