It is one of those days that I feel the need to create a cookie recipe. But I have to challenge myself. The Goal: Make use of what is readily available in the cupboard. Upon checking on my inventory, since I haven't gone to the supermarket yet, I only have flour, chocolate chips, graham crackers and oatmeal aside from the basics like baking soda, Sugar and Butter is always present in the fridge. Yes, while looking at my checklist I could already see the picture of what I might end up doing. And so the debate in my mind finally came to a conclusion: two cookie recipes. I included the Chocolate Chips indeed and also Oatmeal Cookies. I just can't leave my graham sitting there lonely so I included it to both recipes. I remember from an episode of Buddy's Bakery Rescue that a simple cookie dough could come up with different variations. With this in mind, I know I could never go wrong. It might not be original since I looked it up on Goggle and found similar recipes. :( With my goal in mind, I'll still go on with my recipes.
Graham Crackers is our basic ingredient when we are baking pies specifically we use this as the crust if we want no bake, ref pies. It is also the one in the 3 ingredient s'mores that we loved. But honestly it never came to my mind that it can also be used in baking cookies. Using Graham Crackers gives that extra chewy on cookies especially if to be put in the fridge for a couple of minutes before baking.
This two cookie recipe that I would like to share is of my own version. Hope you'll enjoy it as much as my family did. :)
