What Happened?

I haven’t made cookies from scratch in a long time. This is what happened.
Too much butter? To little flour, or baking soda? I don’t know, I followed the directions on the back of the generic chocolate chips. Oh well, they still tasted good!
It isn’t as bad as the time my brother and I made cinnamon muffins, and accidentally put in cumin instead of cinnamon.
*What is your worst cooking disaster story?

I tried to make a gingerbread man once. It looked remarkably similar to the above picture. I could just hear the poor “man” in the oven intone “I’m melting!”

Gravy has ALWAYS been a “no go” for me.. It always looks abd tastes like paste. I just quit trying.
Love you. Mom

I just put paprika instead of cinnamon in my little girl’s oatmeal… she still liked it.

3/4 cups salt instead of sugar. that’s all that needs to be said.

Thanksgiving pumpkin pie minus the sugar. That was kinda embarrassing.

Let’s see. The rubber spatula that was shredded into my zucchini bread mix (via an angry blender) was one of the worst. Other than that, trying to get the big, very hot, bowl of Greek potatoes to a Scout function didn’t turn out so well. Just imagine the entire trunk of the car covered in potatoes, olive oil, butter, and parsley. YUM!

I burnt a pan once.

I saw my mistake was up here already, too. I was a kid wanting to make a special cake for my mom.
I read sugar, and used salt.
Good times.

Sam kinda thing….my muffins when turned upside down to get them out of the pan their middle’s fell out. I literally had holes in the middle of my muffins because they weren’t done yet.

All I can say is that is the most amazingly delicious thing I’ve seen in years. What’s the problem?

Yeah, my worst story mysteriously resembles your cookies. I added something like 3/4 cup baking soda instead of 3/4 tsp. They were crisp pancakes and all my friends loved the cookies because they made them burp, and I was like 9, so that was hilarious.
