cookie baking

E and I did a test run of the cookie we are making for our cookie exchange. I found a yummy sounding chocolate crinkle in the Food Day of the Oregonian but in the window we had to make our cookies, I couldn't find where I had stashed the piece of paper - so we went with Cook's Illustrated Chocolate Crinkles and added some peppermint oil. E's job was rolling the cookie in sugar before baking. He was also the official tester
They turned out great - though might need a double dose of powdered sugar - once before we bake and once after they've cooled. E dressed up and delivered a plate to our new neighbors. He rang the bells all the way up the street and bake - we are feeling very Christmas-y at our house!
