Spent today baking cookies :D Did a basic dark chocolate + coffee mix, then after the first batch I decided to start playing with the ingredients that were in the kitchen. So I have a batch with some white chocolate, a batch with some almonds, a batch with marshmallows, and cookies in different sizes and degrees of flatness.
I have learned one important lesson: when baking cookies containing marshmallows and cookies containing almonds on the same tray, the marshmallows will toast long before the almonds do, not the other way around.
I was hoping to be able to get the marshmallows to melt and the almonds to toast, but well /o\ Probably next time I'll need to toast the almonds before mixing them into the cookie dough. I should also chop the marshmallows up smaller and put them inside rather than on top, ahahah.
My hands smell so good right now!
