Recipe #14 - Mint Chocolate Chip Drop Cookies
Review: Mmmm cookies~ This recipe was nice and easy. I already had the majority of the ingredients (including fresh mint from my garden) so it was cheap too!
I always look forward to doing recipes that are actually from the games. They're always suspenseful, you never know how they will turn out or how usable the recipe even is. This one turned out, as I said, pretty standard. And I think I know where I went wrong.
On the recipe card in the game it says to put in "3 cubes" of butter. I had no idea what this meant so I googled it and half the internet says a cube is an entire stick and the other half says it's 2 tablespoons. I ultimately decided to go with the 2 tablespoons assessment because in the game, the butter looks pretty small. However, after the cookies were done I looked it up and it turns out it's huge portions of butter that flattens and curls cookies. (Not mint as Nancy says in the game). So next time I make this recipe I plan to try 3 sticks as opposed to 3/4 of a stick (lol quite the difference!) For now though, I'm glad I didn't use 3 sticks because the cookies came out just as I like them. Fluffy.
My only complaint is that you really can't taste the mint too much. The game is misleading there too, you need a lot more than what Nancy gets at Cafe Kiki's. (About 10 leaves+)
The recipe is in the game itself! Thanks JJ ;D
If anyone wants to try making JJ's cookies I recommend following the recipe but using more butter than I did. Enjoy!
