I like to divide recipes as often as possible because I'm single and I don't want the rest to go to waste. Sure I love leftovers but I don't want to have to eat the same thing too often. Not the case really with cookies.
After some thought, I remembered Egg Beaters! Ding! A way to divide the 1 egg required in the recipe. In this case a serving of Egg Beaters is 3 tbsp so I divided the recipe by 3 starting with 1 tbsp of Egg Beaters. Everything else was simple. I weighed and divided the mix, the butter and used 1 tsp instead of the 1 tbsp of water.
It makes just a little bit which will make ONE dozen instead of the 3 dozen per the package listing. Once you've divided the recipe, everything else is the same including the nutritional info.
Yeah, I ate them all. Don't judge me. That's one of the main reasons why I divided the recipe in the first place. Next I will divide it even further so that I can make one serving (2 cookies) at a time.
Why don't I just freeze the extra dough? Because then I wouldn't even make the cookies, I'd eat the dough.
I will be even more impressed if you could bake only TWO COOKIES!! Amazing!!
ReplyDeleteThis is a good thing but my favorite part is about eating the dough. I'm going to smile about that all day!
ReplyDeleteI eat frozen cookie dough all the time. My favorite is chocolate chip since the chips are frozen and crunchy.
