Hey PJ - Thanks for the suggestions. I measured the flour using the method you recommended above; I'm wondering if I shorted the sugar a little. But I will check the oven temp before I make my next batch (and there will be a next batch; I made these for my office and even though they didn't look like the picture my co-workers LOVED these cookies. They kept saying they were little brownie bites!).
My suggestion is how about a key lime/white chocolate chip cookie? I love these things and I haven't been able to find a good recipe for them.
Thanks again for your help. Happy 4th!
Well, good luck next time... Try baking ONE cookie first. See if it spreads. If not, then try flattening first (to give it a head start), then baking another ONE cookie. It takes time to do these one-by-one experiments, but saves you (usually) ending up with a whole recipe of cookies that didn't quite turn out the way you expected.
Surprisingly enough, I just did a key lime cookie recipe and it's ready to appear here one of these days... no white chocolate chips, but they'd certainly be an option. Gee, now I'll have to go back and do them AGAIN. Sigh... tough work. ;) - PJH
