A cookie disaster

So I have had many cooking disasters and cookIE disasters.  But this weekends was a failure…at least the first time.  Craig had asked me to bake cookies for his BSF Fellowship for tonight.  I was glad to do it and had some time to do it.  I waited until the weekend so they would be fresh.  As usual he wanted Andes Mint Chocolate Chip Cookies.  Which are great cookies.  So Saturday night after Eliana went to bed I decided to go ahead and mix up the mix and refridgerate it over night to save on time.  Sunday afternoon after lunch I pull it out and let it sit for a little bit to warm up while our oven preheats. (Another story in itself.)  So in goes the first batch…what happened?  These looked awful.  They were brown and greasy and just gross looking.  Okay, lets try another.  okay, another.  After 4 dozen cookies in the trash I decide to start completely over.  So off to Wal-mart I go (the only place I can find the Andes Chips).  I get home and Craig and I whip up more cookies.  Luckily these turned out okay.  I am not sure what happened. Craig thinks it is because I let it sit over night.  I think it is because I may have mismeasured my flour.  If you want the recipe, let me know.  They seem to be a hit at our tailgate.

Craig, I hope your guys enjoy the cookies.  Please bring some back home!

    When Craig brought these to work, I think I ate at least 20 of them.
