Note to Katrina regarding chilling other cookie doughs: I've been using Alice Medrich's recipe for peanut butter cookies for the last few years, and it calls for chilling the dough preferably overnight. I believe one time I had the dough in the fridge 3 days. Everyone just raves about them, and I think it's because the dough is chilled.
Hey, I think we may be onto something here... OK, everyone, next time you make cookies, bake half right away, and the other half, chill the dough for 24 hours. See what difference it makes and report back. That's your homework for this week. :) PJH
