Cookie Challenge

My workplace decided to put on a cookie challenge, and I decided to throw my chef cap into the ring. Needless to say, the equipment I have on hand is far from chef quality, thus the reason I had to step up my baking skills. I decided upon a recipe called "Big Soft Ginger Snaps". The recipe calls for 15 min of prep, 10 min of cook time and cookies ready in about 50 minutes. After numerous callbacks to the kid's rooms, and an unforeseen change in directions, I was already 2 hours into the process. No laughing though, because although I followed the directions to a tee, the mixture was too gooey to handle. First batch came out looking great, but stuck to the pan big time, which meant the next two pans were destined to the same outcome. I then decided to use Pam on the following batches, which only made the cookies spread too far and overcook the edges. Live and learn I guess. Overall, they tasted good enough for the challenge, and I used some easter cookie cutters on the overspread cookies for some extra flair. Now bring on the judges.

Update: Stayed home to care for the sick wife, so the cookies didn't even get a chance to win. Oh well, more for me.
