I’ve been baking quite a bit lately.  I actually enjoy baking, so I am having fun figuring out what the treat of the day is.

They are eating the baked goods like crazy, so I will continue to bake them like crazy.  I create my savory dishes from scratch, so they are all true originals.

But when it comes to baked goods, I usually follow a recipe since it’s more of a science.  I do “wing it” sometimes, but it’s actually fun for me to find new baking recipes.

I have tons of cookbooks (over 500) in my library at home, but when it comes to being on the boat, I have zero.  Actually the previous chef had bought several of Thomas Keller’s cookbooks.  They look nice on the coffee table, but hardly usable for daily cooking inspiration.

I made these cookies last week, and liked them well enough.  I actually made a double batch and they were still gone in a few days.  I wound up eating several (maybe a few more than that) myself and the more I ate them, the more I really enjoyed them.

So I decided to share the recipe with you.  It certainly has enough good reviews from other people.  You can get the recipe here…

They keep well in an airtight container for several days.  Enjoy :)
